Specifications
Advanced technology3-4mm OptiFlex needles
3-4mm OptiFlex needles
At the heart of the GEA MultiJector brine injector are the unique 3 or 4 mm OptiFlex needles, which combine flexibility with special strength. They are 68% stronger than traditional stainless steel and will flex and recover their shape, helping to prevent bent or broken needles and ensure consistent quality and maximum productivity. This help avoid over or under-cured areas for a more consistent taste and color.
Optimal Time-in-Meat
Optimal Time-in-Meat
Time-in-Meat is a GEA brine injection precision technique based on the specific combination of stroke height and injection cycle time, both optimized for each product type. Thanks to the Time-in-Meat technique, the needles stay in the product longer during injection, which leads to better brine uptake and more even brine distribution. As a result, product quality and consistency are significantly increased and therefore higher efficiency and yields can be achieved.
Easy cleaning for minimum downtime
The GEA MultiJector features a unique conveyor belt cleaning system that includes a hoisting device mounted on a trolley. This allows the belt to be removed, cleaned and returned by one person without having to remove up and downstream equipment. Simple removal of the belt gives easy access to the machine for fast, thorough cleaning and minimum downtime.
