Abstract

The construction and grinding operating principle of meat grinders should have minimal effect to meat losses. This paper presents the engineering calculation of the cutting process of meat grinder. The experimental grinder consists of a frame, screw, gearbox, electric motor, V-belt transmission, casing, lock and hopper. The calculation algorithm of grinding process includes determination of the coefficient of use of the area of plates, cutting capacity and required power of the equipment. The operator scheme of mechanical processing of meat consists of the subsystem of preliminary grinding of meat and subsystem of mechanical processing of minced meat.
