Machines
Casing cleaning machine (sliming machine)The central production equipment in a casing cleaning plant: the casings are passed through the machine to be cleaned, calibrated and prepared for the sausage or pharmaceutical industry. The casing cleaner operates and maintains the machine.
Cleaning tub / water basin with rinseUsed for soaking, rinsing and visually inspecting the casings so they are completely clean before salting and resale.
Brine tank for slush saltingUsed as one of the two main methods — slush salting or dry salting/centrifuging — to preserve casings immediately after cleaning, cf. the EU guide to good hygiene practice for natural casings (ENSCA).
Casing flushing and calibre grading machineUsed to calibrate and sort large quantities of casings uniformly by diameter, so batches can be sold in fixed calibre classes (e.g. 28/30, 32/35 mm).
