Ham Equipment
Ham is pork from a leg cut that has been preserved by wet or dry curing, with or without smoking. As a processed meat, the term "ham" includes both whole cuts of meat and ones that have been mechanically formed. RGMTSI's ham process equipment can reduce your massaging time by 50% or more and reduce or completely eliminate curing hold-time to facilitate continuous production with program- driven massaging cycles.

PrimeMove Stuffing Hopper With Stainless Positive Displacement Pump
Stuffing Hoppers (CSH) are designed to integrate seamlessly into today's high volume, continuous processing lines. Direct-discharge valving systems enable CSH units to automatically receive product from upstream units. This greatly reduces or in many cases, completely eliminates human labor associated with handling and transporting of product, thus eliminating product contamination. The modular CSH system can be custom configured from one to multiple chamber units and can be equipped with numerous options to maximize the efficiency of your specific operation. Our CSH units are especially useful when incorporated into a complete emulsion/reduction line.
PrimeMove Stuffing Hopper With Stainless Positive Displacement Pump

SUSPENTEC Particle Reduction System for Injection Processes
Used worldwide to process roast beef, ham, turkey breast, chicken products, steaks, fish, bacon and various other whole-muscle products, the patented SUSPENTEC process has brought significant profit building advantages to users everywhere. Hundreds of processors of fresh, cooked, refrigerated or frozen meats and seafood worldwide are using the SUSPENTEC system to add value to their products while lowering their costs of finished goods. An application-customized SUSPENTEC system inject lower cost protein materials into higher cost whole muscle products. Enhanced binding, reduced cook and chill shrink and increased slicing yields are just a few benefits realized. The heart of the SUSPENTEC process lies in its high-throughput, precise, MultiCut reduction system where the mixture recirculates through the reduction unit and mixing hopper until it becomes a homogeneous mixture of brine and ultra fine particles of meat. When exact particle size or temperature is achieved, a divert valve automatically directs suspension to feed one or two holding hoppers. An optional chiller maintains the critical suspension temperature. From the holding hopper(s), a pump delivers suspension to a standard injector. Whole muscle product is then injected with the suspension to the preset yield gain. Excess suspension from the injector is captured by a return hopper and reprocessed. The modular and compact SUSPENTEC system is adaptable to practically any plant layout.
SUSPENTEC Particle Reduction System for Injection Processes
- SUSPENTEC system consists of Mixing hopper with MultiCut reduction unit, Holding hopper(s) with optional chiller(s), Return hopper from injector, Return reduction unit (optional).
- The process involves mixing a brine solution with lower cost materials such as trimmings, rework, etc. and injecting mix into more costly whole muscle product.
- The modular SUSPENTEC system is adaptable to each unique application depending on plant layout and space considerations.
- Increased bind, reduced cook and chill shrink, increased slice yield and lower overall product cost.
- USDA accepted and CE approved. Built in conformity with AMI sanitary equipment design principles.
Declipper
Automate the process of removing wire clips on the ends of chubs with the Declipper. Safeguard your ready-to-eat products from the risk of contamination by eliminating inefficient manual declipping with this productivity-boosting machine. Feeding directly from a Chub Separator or manually, the infeed conveyor indexes the product to the declipping head stations and then stops. The declipping heads simultaneously approach the product from both sides and the knives close around the clips. The declipper can handle up to 30 chubs a minute, per set of declipping heads. Up to 3 sets of declipping heads available to maximize output. After cutting the clips, the knives retract, removing and discarding the clips in the process. Since the product is centered on the declipper belt, an optional sectioning knife mounted at the discharge of the declipping stations can accurately cut the product in half. From the declipper, chubs can be indexed directly to a slicing or packaging line without human contact. With all these timesaving features, the Declipper can be a welcome addition to your processing line.

Brine Mixing System
The Brine Mixing System is ideal for high volume mixing, chilling and storage applications, Now you can prepare meat brines or poultry marinades quickly and efficiently in a controlled system for perfect repeatability, batch after batch. The brine mixing process begins at the dry ingredients hopper which is placed at a convenient height for easy loading. When the hopper valve is opened, a vacuumizing action siphons the precise amount of ingredients into the preparation tank. Once ingredients are inside the tank, a powerful centrifugal pump circulates and homogenizes the mixture. Even hard-to-mix ingredients like phosphates, proteins, gums and starches can be thoroughly homogenized quickly. Stainless steel system with fine sanitary finish throughout. Custom designed storage tanks available in capacities up to 530 gallons (2000 liters).
