The Handtmann VF 608 Plus Vacuum Stuffer is a compact, high-performance vacuum filling and portioning machine designed for sausage, meat products, salads, fillings, and other pasty food products. Its core technology is the vane cell feed system that enables gentle and accurate product filling while reducing air incorporation.
The Handtmann VF 608 Plus Vacuum Stuffer is useful in the commercial kitchen when food production facilities require large quantities of sausages, meat products, and other fillings consistently.
Let’s understand the process and how this equipment moves the food quickly to make a uniform portions with consistent weight and size.
How does the Handtmann VF 608 Plus work?
The industrial equipment has different components within a single vertical structure that supports the process of standardizing the food into uniform portions. The major process of this industrial equipment is as below.
1: Hopper
The hopper is the main area where the product is loaded before filling. The VF 608 Plus is available with 40- or 100-liter hopper configurations. Its design guides the product toward the feeding system while helping maintain a consistent flow.
2: Vane Cell Feed System
This is the core component of the VF 608 Plus. A rotating pump rotor with vane cells gently captures and transports the products from the hopper toward the filling outlet. The system is designed to provide accurate continuous product flow while minimizing product damage and air incorporation.
3: Pump Rotor and Vanes
The pump rotor rotates inside the feed system, while the individual vanes create pockets that carry the product forward. This controlled movement is particularly important when handling firm or sensitive products or helps maintain consistent portioning.
4: Vacuum System
The vacuum system removes air from the products during the process. This specific structure helps to improve the product density and appearance while supporting consistent filling quality. Vacuum filling is especially useful for products such as dry sausages, where controlling air incorporation is important.
5: Main Drive
The main drive powers the feeding and filling mechanisms. The VF 608 Plus uses a high-precision, energy-efficient servo main drive, helping control the accurate product movement.
6: Control System
The control system allows operators to manage the machine’s filling and portioning functions. Depending on the version, the machine can include a control panel with a display for operating parameters and production settings.
7: Portion System
The portion system is controlled through the control panel dashboard. For product delivery of each filling cycle, the VF 608 Plus offers a broad portioning range and can achieve up to 400 portions per minute with servo linking depending on the product configuration.
8: Product Ejection and Discharge Area
After the product passes through the filling system, it is directed into the selected casing, container, or forming equipment. This section connects the stuffer to the next stage of production.
9: Stainless Steel Housing and Frame
The machine’s robust construction provides structural support for the hopper, feed system, vacuum equipment, drive components, and controls while supporting the hygiene requirements of commercial food production.
