This GEA GEA-CFS is a used meat processing former — a machine type also commonly known as a food forming machine — designed to shape ground or emulsified meat products into consistent, portion-controlled forms such as patties, nuggets, and similar formed pieces. GEA is a well-established global supplier of process technology and equipment for the food industry, with a broad portfolio serving meat, dairy, and other food processing sectors worldwide. This machine is located in Belgium and is available for inspection.
The former is built entirely in stainless steel, making it well suited to the hygiene demands of food production environments. It is equipped with a 270-litre hopper, providing substantial product capacity to support continuous or high-volume production runs. The die has a width of 400 mm and a usable forming surface of 370 × 130 mm, determining the dimensions of the products that can be formed. Each stroke delivers a maximum volume of approximately 1.47 kg of product, and the machine is capable of up to 50 strokes per minute, enabling a high throughput when running at full speed. Variable speed control allows operators to adjust the output rate to suit different product types or line requirements.
Total installed power is 8 kW, with the machine running on a three-phase 3 × 400 V, 50 Hz supply. Air consumption is rated at approximately 300 litres per minute, indicating a pneumatic element to the machine's operation. Overall dimensions are approximately 3,140 × 1,900 × 2,570 mm (length × width × height), and the machine weighs 1,200 kg.
The control system has been fitted with a new Siemens PLC and an HMI touch screen interface that provides a digital readout and the ability to store and recall production recipes, supporting consistent repeatability across different product runs.
