Industrial Meat Baller Machine for Food Manufacturers in Canada and the USA
For food processing operations that demand consistency, speed, and compliance, an industrial meat baller machine is a mission-critical investment. Our equipment is purpose-built for high-volume protein processing, delivering precise portioning with every cycle while eliminating manual labor bottlenecks. Trusted by meat processors and ready-meal manufacturers across Canada and the USA, this machine integrates seamlessly into automated production lines. From fresh ground beef to seasoned protein blends, it sets the benchmark for food-grade portioning equipment in today's competitive market.
Challenge — and Why It Matters
Inconsistent meatball weight. Labor-intensive hand-rolling. Downtime from equipment that can't handle shift-after-shift demands. These are the realities for processors still relying on outdated or semi-manual portioning methods.
When your output targets are measured in thousands of units per hour, you need equipment that performs without compromise — hygienic, repeatable, and built to withstand the rigors of industrial food manufacturing. That's precisely what our automatic meat baller machine delivers.
Equipment Overview
Our industrial meat baller machine is engineered for demanding continuous-production environments in the red meat, poultry, and alternative protein sectors. Designed to meet the standards of USDA and CFIA-regulated facilities, it combines robust mechanical design with an intelligent control system to deliver precise, consistent output at high throughput rates.
This machine is ideal for manufacturers producing meatballs, protein bites, falafel, fish balls, and similar formed products — with the flexibility to adapt to a wide range of recipes and textures.
Key Features
- Dual-format capability — AH-130 handles both automatic meatball forming and burger patty production, making it one of the most versatile meat baller machines available to North American processors
- High continuous output — rated at approximately 3,600 meatballs per hour or 1,800 burger patties per hour, supporting demanding production schedules without interruption
- 24 L hopper capacity — designed for continuous automatic production with minimal operator intervention and consistent feed flow
- Wide product size range — adjustable diameter from 25 mm to 130 mm with variable burger thickness settings, accommodating a broad range of retail and foodservice portion formats
- Variable speed control — operators can fine-tune output rate to match line speed, product density, and texture requirements, optimizing both shape consistency and yield
- Low-voltage movement components — 24 V drive system for movement components reduces electrical risk in wet processing environments, contributing to safer daily operation
- Integrated safety micro-switches — lid and dispenser plate switches automatically halt operation when accessed, protecting operators and meeting standard machine guarding requirements
Benefits for Your Operation
Consistency at scale. Every piece exits the machine within tight weight tolerances, protecting your brand quality and meeting retail and foodservice buyer specifications without rework.
Reduced labor dependency. Replacing manual portioning and rolling stations with a single automated unit cuts headcount requirements on the line while improving hygiene and reducing repetitive strain liability.
Fast ROI. Higher throughput per labor hour, reduced product giveaway, and lower downtime from rapid sanitation cycles all contribute to a measurable return on investment — typically realized within the first production year.
Designed for Canadian and U.S. regulatory environments. Equipment configurations are available to meet USDA FSIS facility requirements and Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) standards, giving compliance teams one less thing to worry about.
