Machine type
Meat Grinders & Mincers
A grinder, also called a mincer, reduces meat and other raw materials by forcing them through a perforated hole plate. A worm carries the product from the hopper to a set of knives that turn against the plate and cut it cleanly, and the diameter of the holes decides how coarse or fine the result is. Several plates and knives can be stacked so the product is cut in stages.

Overview
About grinders & mincers
Automatic grinders have a feeding worm in the hopper that pushes large pieces, including cooked meat and pre-cut frozen blocks, towards the working worm, which keeps the flow steady. Mixing grinders add mixing arms to the hopper so meat, fat, seasoning and additives are blended before they are ground, giving a more uniform mince. Universal grinders are designed to cut fresh, cooked and frozen material with the same worm and cutting set. A separating set on the outlet removes bone, cartilage and sinew as the product is ground.
Grinders prepare minced meat, burger mixes, sausage meat, pet food and plant-based mixtures. Grinding heads that fit onto a vacuum filler let producers grind and portion in one step with less handling.
