TOMRA’s advanced sorting machines inspect millions of individual product pieces per hour, typically recovering five to ten percent higher yields while providing superior utilization or resources.

That’s equivalent to approximately 25,000 trucks worth of potatoes per year!

mini-salami sorting machine by tomra

ViskoTeepak and TOMRA Food decided to join forces to develop a casing solution that would make it easier for mini-salami producers to detect casing pieces in peeling operations while still being able to track the color formation of the sausage during processing. The result of this synergy is an entirely new patent-pending innovation in the world of mini-salami casing detection.

This innovation can be used to produce skinless sausages of all types, including frankfurters, hotdogs, mini-salamis and much more.

Combining TOMRA’s Genius optical sorter with ViskoTeepaks’ D-Tech development doesn’t only allow for casing detection but it is also possible to sort on size and other quality deviations such as color.

WORKING PRINCIPLE NEW CASING DETECTION VISKOTEEPAK & TOMRA

In the production of skinless sausages, it is essential to guarantee that all the casing fragments are removed from the surface of the mini-salamis after peeling.

ViskoTeepak has developed a particular casing type, “Wienie-Pak D-Tech” that allows producers to verify that the casings are entirely removed.

This type of casing contains a unique component in the full body of the casing. This component leaves the casing fully transparent in normal conditions but becomes detectable in combination with TOMRA’s Genius optical sorting machine.
