The new I-Cut 1000 Portion Cutter is among the Marel products featured at Stand 229 at the inaugural MEATUP exhibition, being staged at Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire, UK, from June 21-22.
Easy to operate and able to meet a variety of production requirements, the I-Cut 1000 is designed for high speed, high yield portioning of a variety of fresh, boneless meat products, such as pork belly, pork neck, pork loin or beef strip loin.
Based on the highly successful Marel Polyslicer 1000, the I-Cut 1000 combines high performance with superb presentation, and delivers individual portions and well-defined shingles efficiently and consistently.
Product is manually loaded into the machine with the option of semi automatic or manual gripping and a load assist table. A choice of involute or orbital blades is available, with live product side control and incremental thickness control supplied as standard.
As with all Marel machines, the I-Cut 1000 has been designed and built with robust stainless steel construction for low maintenance, easy hygiene and a high level of reliability. And for maximum production flexibility and minimum on-cost, additional options can be retro-fitted at any time.
The Marel I-Cut 1000 can also be supplied with checkweigher feedback for automatic regulation of the average pack weight. Real time performance data from the checkweigher is fed back to the portion cutter, allowing adjustments to be made for optimum operating performance.
A new bi-annual show for the UK meat industry, MEATUP is the only one of its type to serve this market. As well as the wide range of equipment on show, the event will feature trade competitions, craft demonstrations and workshops, providing a meeting place for everyone, from the smallest butcher to the largest processor or retailer.
