Description
Available for sale, this fully overhauled Fomaco FGM 64 F SW is a professional brine injector specifically engineered for the gentle, precise injection of fish, meat, and poultry with salt solutions, brine, and marinades. Built by Fomaco – the world’s leading manufacturer of injectors for fish processing with over 30 years of industry experience – this machine is a proven workhorse for continuous production environments where product quality and yield are critical.
Fomaco FGM 64 F SW is particularly valued for two core strengths that directly impact product quality and profitability. First, its fine needles operate at low pump pressure, which prevents damage to fragile tissue – essential when processing salmon, cod, halibut, or other delicate fish. Second, the electronically controlled valves allow the operator to define the exact start and stop point of injection at any predefined height within the product, eliminating under-cure at the skin and over-cure at the tail – resulting in consistent salt distribution and higher yield across every batch. The machine is equipped with two injector bridges, each carrying 128 needles, delivering thorough and even coverage across the full conveyor width in a single pass.
FGM 64 F SW Functional Details
The FGM 64 F SW uses a “Walking Beam” conveyor feeding system, which holds the product steady during the injection stroke – a significant advantage over standard belt-feed systems as it ensures positional accuracy and reduces product movement during needle penetration. The pump-to-product design of the needle head eliminates dead zones and low-flow areas in the brine circuit, ensuring a consistent and hygienic flow of brine directly to the needles. The automatic lubrication system reduces manual maintenance requirements, while the automatic cleaning system minimises downtime between production runs.
FGM 64 F SW machine includes a Danfoss vacuum pump, a well-established and reliable component in industrial food processing. The plastic conveyor is suitable for wet and hygienic environments. This machine has been fully overhauled and is ready for immediate integration into an existing production line.
