Meyn 400mm Breader

• Coating poultry, fish, or red meat portions with a consistent layer of breading.
• Preparing products for further processing such as frying, baking, or freezing.
• Achieving uniform product appearance and texture in high-volume food production.
• Applying various types of breadcrumbs, from fine to coarse, to food items.

Belt width

This unit features a 400mm wide belt, suitable for medium-scale production lines.

Construction material

Typically, units of this type, including this one, are constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability in food processing environments.

Throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput can vary significantly but is generally suited for continuous processing of several hundred kilograms per hour, depending on product size and type.

Power supply

Commonly, these machines require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements.

Footprint

A breader of this width typically requires a floor space of approximately 1.5m to 2.5m in length and around 1m to 1.5m in width, excluding infeed and outfeed conveyors.

Coating type

Designed for applying dry breading materials after a batter application, ensuring full coverage.

• What maintenance is typically required for a breader?

  Routine maintenance includes daily cleaning of all food contact surfaces, checking belt tension and condition, and periodic inspection of bearings and drive components. Lubrication points should be addressed as per the manufacturer's guidelines.
