This Handtmann VF 610 is a vacuum filler — sometimes referred to as a vacuum stuffer — a type of meat processing machine used to fill, portion, and twist-off food products with high accuracy and consistency. Handtmann is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing filling and portioning systems for the food industry, supplying equipment to sectors ranging from meat and sausage production to bakery, dairy, snack, seafood, and plant-based food processing.
Built in 2005 and located in the Netherlands, this machine is offered in used condition and is constructed entirely from stainless steel, making it well suited to the hygiene demands of commercial food production environments. According to the seller, the unit has a production capacity of 3,000 kg/h and supports portion sizes ranging from 5 g to 100,000 g, with a portioning rate of up to 450 portions per minute. These figures reflect a machine capable of handling both fine portion work and high-throughput bulk filling runs.
The hopper offers a capacity of 40 litres or 100 litres depending on configuration, and the filling pressure reaches up to 50 bar. An integrated vacuum system is fitted, supplied by a Busch unit rated at 16 m³/h, which removes air from the product during filling to maintain product quality and consistency. The machine is also equipped with a twist-off mechanism (designated 34-5), enabling sausage linking and portioning directly during the filling process.
Operation is managed via an intuitive touchscreen interface, allowing multiple programmes to be stored and recalled. The machine is compatible with a range of attachments including clippers, forming machines, and diaphragms, extending its versatility across different product types and packaging formats.
Electrically, the machine runs on 400 V (3+N, 50 Hz) with a power consumption of 3.5 kW. It weighs 480 kg and has overall dimensions of 1,070 × 950 × 1,750 mm (W × D × H), giving a relatively compact footprint for its throughput capacity.
