Automatic double clipper KOMPO SPRINT KN 501

Dosing

Possible variants to obtain a set dose of the product:

• "By flag". Mechanical or optical flag is used. When filling minced meat into the casing, the beginning of a stick touches the flag or IR beam, the contact is opened and the filler stops delivering minced meat.

  ---

• "From the filler". The dose size is set in the filler menu, after dispensing of which the filler stops and the stick is clipped.

  ---

• "By time". The time during which the filler fills the casing with minced meat is set in the clipper menu. After this time, dosing stops and the stick is clipped.

TWISTING UNIT

The clipper allows for, without using a tool, by turning the adjusting handle, setting the size of the window of twisting jaws convergence and adjusting the twisting axis in relation to the cog axis.

Adjusting the size of the window of twisting jaws convergence allows choosing the optimal parameter at which the size of the window will be equal to the diameter of the casing harness twisted by the jaws, which will ensure complete extrusion of minced meat during formation of harness and, accordingly, purity of the sausage tails and will not lead to casing breakage.

Adjusting the position of the twisting axis in relation to the cog axis allows creating pretension of the casing harness on the matrix, which makes it easier to grip the harness with a clip, which means that clipping is of better quality.

UNLOADING TRAY

3 options of trays are available:

• Gravity tray. The sausage stick is moved onto the technological table under its own weight and the angle of the tray tilt. The tray is an “economy” option and is recommended during operation at low and medium clipping speeds.
• Active single-tape tray. Sausage sticks are unloaded by rotating the belt conveyor. Provides high-quality removal of sticks from the clipping zone and allows working in all ranges the clipper capacity. Option of adjusting the speed of rotation of the conveyor belt allows selecting the optimal operating modes for all diameters and sizes of sticks.

• Active double-tape tray. It is used for production of all types of products and especially for circular sausages.

Trays of all types are quick-detachable which ensure easy sanitary treatment and are easily adjusted according to height and distance from the twisting jaws.

AUTOMATIC CONTROL SYSTEMS

The clipper is equipped with necessary sensors that ensure efficient operation and block operation when the set modes are exceeded:

• Casing end sensor. The clipper stops automatically when the casing ends on the cog.

  ---

• Clip end sensor. It stops work when a clip runs out on the reel. In the clipper menu, you can set the number of cycles that the clipper will make after the sensor is triggered, which minimizes the remains of unused clips.

  ---

• Clip overpressure sensor. If there is an excessive load on the punch, the clipper will automatically stop without damaging the working tool.

  ---

CLIPPER ACTUATING MECHANISMS TESTING SYSTEM

Allows checking operability of the clipper units directly on the control display by input and output signals.

MAINTENANCE

Function "Electronic handwheel" allows the clipper to be brought to the position of changing the working tool and sanitary treatment without manual rotation of the cam shaft, but only by pressing the buttons on the control panel. There is an opportunity to adjust the clipping process at a slow speed.

The clipper working units are dismantled and installed without disassembling the bearing part of the working unit. The cam shaft is removed and installed as an assembly, which reduces equipment downtime during repairs.

The clipper is equipped with a retractable electrical cabinet with inclined working panels which ensure simple and convenient maintenance and repair.

Alarm function about the need for maintenance - a reminder about the need for scheduled maintenance appears on the monitor.
