How to Scale Your Sausage Factory with the Right Clipper Machines
In today's competitive meat industry, growth is not just about increasing sausage production volumes, but also about accelerating, stabilizing, and reducing downtime costs. Whether you are a medium-sized producer looking to enter new markets or a large factory expanding your production line, sausage clipping machines are one of the most effective improvements you can implement. This material will be useful for sausage manufacturers who are looking for the most optimal option for expanding production. It would seem that the most difficult part of expansion is finding a market for your products, but in reality, manufacturers often face technological problems. One of them is finding the best supplier of equipment, in our case clippers, as well as consumables for sausage production (sausage clips, loops and sausage casings) at the best price. Here we will tell you a little about ourselves, our products and our implementation experience.
Why clipping machines are the backbone of high-volume sausage production
Sausage production process is very broad and has many nuances. Every technologist knows that when it comes to producing not hundreds but thousands of sausages in a single day, the issue of precise clipping is very important.
High-speed clippers do not just seal the casings, they determine the speed, quality, and stability of your entire production line. Of course, the main task of a clipper is to clip the sausage with two metal clips, but modern pneumatic and automatic clippers are designed for the following tasks:
- Ensuring perfect sealing regardless of the type of casing (including natural casings).
- Reducing waste through precise closing pressure.
- Seamless integration with vacuum stuffers and connecting devices.
Obvious and expected result is at least a 40% increase in the productivity of your workshop after introducing their clipping machines into the chain. An important point is that the increase in productivity does not entail an increase in labour costs from operators.
Choosing the right clipper for scaling
If you are thinking about expanding your production, you should always consider many factors, all of which are difficult to list, but here are a few that are worth paying attention to:
- Production volume targets – if you are looking for maximum speed with minimal human intervention, a high-speed double clipper is the best choice. You will be able to produce 80-100 sausages per minute without any problems or stress, and all you need to do is purchase the KN 501
- Product range – for manufacturers working with both small and large calibers, adjustable cutting sizes and quick-change tools save hours when changing products.
- Integration requirements – fully automated models can be connected directly to existing stuffers, ensuring continuous operation without stopping for manual adjustment.
Our clippers are used in a wide variety of businesses, from small butchers who sell their own sausages to large companies that sell their products across Canada and the US. If you make hot dog sausages, we have clippers and casing for your stuffing machine. Do you produce salami and other sausages in Canada or the US? We have everything you could possibly want. And if you are a large factory with a wide range of products from sausages to fast food, we have clippers, disinfection stations, fast food production equipment, autoclaves, and much more for you. All of this is available for purchase and delivery throughout Canada and the United States.
Don't forget consumables
Expanding production is not just about buying equipment. You start producing hundreds of times more products, but what about consumables? Clips and loops are just as important, and poor-quality consumables can lead to malfunctions, downtime, and product loss. And price is important, of course. Increased production automatically means an increase in working capital, and therefore costs.
We offer industrial-grade clips and loops compatible with equipment from all major clip manufacturers (including Kompo North America Inc. and P and T), which are always in stock to avoid delays in delivery from abroad.
You may find it useful to know that we have been manufacturing our clippers, loops, and clips at our own factory in Eastern Europe for over 30 years. All production materials are of the highest quality and can be easily replaced by any supplier.
Benefits of the right investment
Modernizing your trimming equipment can mean:
- Increased production capacity without increasing staff.
- Reduction of downtime due to jams or malfunctions.
- Consistent product appearance that meets supermarket standards.
- Lower long-term costs thanks to durable equipment and reliable consumables.
