How does the Fomaco FGM 64 SC injector work?
Fomaco injectors operate on a system of electronically controlled valves that deliver brine directly to the product through a precise needle array – the company describes this approach as a “pump-to-product” system, which maintains constant fluid pressure and eliminates uneven distribution of the brine. As a result, injection remains even regardless of the size and shape of individual pieces of raw material, leading to a higher, more consistent yield and no under-cured or over-cured spots within a production batch.
The FGM 64 SC head is fitted with 32 needles arranged in 4 rows – 128 needles in total, each 3 mm thick – which, combined with low working pressure, allows for gentle yet precise brine injection without excessively disturbing the structure of the meat tissue. The head design also allows for quick removal of the needle cassette, significantly shortening cleaning time and helping maintain production hygiene.
Key advantages of the Fomaco FGM 64 SC injector
Fomaco injectors are valued above all for process consistency and stable operation even under demanding production conditions – Fomaco designs its machines to perform “in even extreme production environments,” which directly translates into reliability in day-to-day plant operation.
The precise injection system delivers a uniform distribution of salt and other brine components throughout the entire batch of raw material, which is particularly important in the production of sausages, hams, bacon, or marinated poultry portions, where even curing has a direct impact on the quality, flavor, and shelf life of the finished product. As a result, producers can count on a higher and more predictable final product yield.
Application of the Fomaco FGM 64 SC injector
The Fomaco FGM 64 SC injector is used in the processing of red meat, poultry, and fish – wherever even, controlled injection of brine or marinade into the raw material is essential. The machine works well both in the production of classic sausages and hams, and in lines focused on marinating poultry portions or fish fillets, where gentle handling of the raw material and a high, stable yield matter most.
