The ABM F 4000 pneumatic is a drum-type former designed to form up to 4000 patties per hour or up to 8,000 meatballs per hour. Form round, oval, square, choppette or natural shape portions. Our patty former provides precise portion control of hamburgers, meatballs, fish cakes, butter, cheese and certain cookie. A drum-type former gently forms the portions with minimum pressure. Homemade style patties are deposited onto the discharge conveyor with or without paper for further processing or packaging. The mix is placed in the hopper and the rotating propellers gently feed the product into the cavity of the drum forming the shape and weight you require. The thickness of the product is adjustable. As the drum rotates, the piston is pushed out of the drum and a stainless steel wire, cleaned automatically py pneumatic piston. strips the portion from the piston and the product is deposited onto the conveyor belt
