VEMAG HP30E + VEMAG LPG208 + VEMAG AH212
Sausage production line
The VEMAG sausage production line is a complete set of three cooperating VEMAG machines: the HP30E vacuum filler (2012), the LPG 208 length-portioning linker (2014), and the AH212 hanging machine (2016). The set covers the entire process from filling the casing, through portioning and linking sausages into lengths of a set size, to automatic hanging on smoke sticks, enabling efficient and repeatable production in medium and large meat plants.
How does the VEMAG sausage production line work?
Meat mass is fed into the VEMAG HP30E vacuum filler, which operates under vacuum to remove air from the stuffing and doses it continuously into the linker. The LPG 208 draws the casing on with a casing pusher, dividing belts portion the sausage into lengths of a set size and weight, and the linking head then closes each piece — all with high accuracy and for calibers from approx. 13 to 40 mm and more. The twin linking head (two identical horns) allows a new casing to be loaded onto one horn while the other is working, with a casing change time of under 2 seconds. Optical sensors detect the casing end and stop the filler, and a split-casing detection system immediately signals a stop. The finished sausages are passed to the AH212 hanging machine, which automatically arranges them in loops on sticks according to the programmed hanging pattern, preparing the product for further processing such as cooking or smoking.
Key advantages of the VEMAG sausage production line
Vacuum operation ensures a compact, uniform stuffing without air pockets, improving the appearance, color, and shelf life of finished sausages. The LPG 208 linker allows cooked, fresh, and dry sausages to be produced on one machine, using natural, collagen, cellulose, and polyamide casings, and its automatic casing pusher shortens changeover times. Interchangeable dividing belts with quick-release catches can be changed in under 1 minute, and the linking speed can be set separately for each casing type. Gentle handling protects casings, including overlapped ones, and the hygienic design allows low-pressure cleaning.
The AH212 hanging machine allows any hanging pattern (individually, in pairs, in threes, in fours, etc.) and ensures ergonomic work, reducing operator physical strain. All three units come from a single manufacturer and are designed to work together, which simplifies control, operation, and servicing of the entire line.

Application of the VEMAG sausage production line
The VEMAG line is used in meat processing plants for producing cooked sausages (e.g. frankfurters), fresh, and dry sausages, in natural, collagen, cellulose, and polyamide casings. The set works well wherever high accuracy of sausage length and weight and efficient, ergonomic hanging of the finished product are required.
