Vegan Protein (imitation meat) filling machines

The ready-made meal industry needs to cater to a wide range of tastes and preferences. Difficult-to-dispense products like couscous and quinoa are increasingly popular, as are vegan protein products like plant-based, imitation hamburger, sausages, etc. Such products require specialized filling equipment.


When it comes to filling machines for vegan proteins, the demands and challenges are similar to those faced with other foods such as meats and cooked pasta: maintaining consistent quantities and textures of foods in each package filled. Since many plant proteins can be quite sticky in consistency, the main issue is for the machinery to keep the product flowing and prevent it from clumping in the hoppers and fill nozzles.


Multi-Fill’s range of multi-purpose filling machines

Multi-Fill excels in meeting the demands of food producers who need to fill challenging products such as products made from meat alternatives such as soy, tofu, or whey protein, to name only a few. In particular, our MPFSC-120, a machine designed for the ultimate speed and efficiency, was created for high-speed delivery of even the stickiest products, and maintaining consistent textures, volumes, and weights. It can fill up to 120 containers per minute, depending on the fill volumes and line configurations.   



No matter what food product you need to fill, Multi-Fill can provide the machines you need to maintain efficient filling lines. Contact us for more information on our volumetric filling machines
