YuHanCo Multi-Lane Extrusion & Forming Production Line
Home » YuHanCo Multi-Lane Extrusion & Forming Production Line
The YuHanCo Multi-Lane Extrusion & Forming Production Line is a continuous, negative-pressure extrusion and portioning system engineered for the high-volume production of casing-free moulded meat products. It seamlessly integrates a vacuum filling machine, a multi-lane flow divider, custom extrusion dies, and a servo-driven cutting and conveying system into one cohesive automated workflow.
The line is specifically optimized for high-protein meat sticks, meat strips, and meat slices. It expertly handles minced meat, highly viscous emulsified mixtures, and compound functional fillings (such as those containing plant-based proteins or visible inclusions). For processors targeting the fast-growing healthy-snack and pet-treat markets, the line delivers the volumetric uniformity and weight accuracy required for standardized, automated manufacturing.
 
Application Range
  Category   Representative Products
  High-protein sports & snack nutrition   Casing-free meat sticks (Peperami-style), beef jerky strips, sliced meat snacks, air-dried protein bars
  Prepared & convenience foods   Formed meat strips for catering, hot-pot ingredients, plant-based / vegan meat alternatives
  Premium pet food   Extruded pet treats, chewy meat sticks, jerky chunks, functional pet nutritional supplements
  Co-extruded & centre-filled products   Dual-layer sticks (distinct outer/inner materials), centre-filled items with cheese, sauce, or paste cores

Core Advantages

Flexible flow distribution — no per-lane adjustment

A purpose-engineered flexible flow distribution system inside the machine distributes material evenly and synchronously across all extrusion lanes. This maintains consistent discharge pressure and flow velocity without any manual lane-by-lane calibration, so batch changeovers that previously consumed one to three hours of tuning now require zero adjustment time — eliminating test-run material waste and idle downtime.

Synchronous multi-lane extrusion for maximum throughput

A precision flow divider drives all lanes in parallel, ensuring uniform filling pressure, unified discharge speed, and identical product weights across every lane. The internal flow geometry is hydrodynamically optimized to reduce shear stress and conveying resistance, preventing fat smearing or temperature rise during extrusion and preserving the original fibrous structure of the meat.
 
 

Modular quick-change tooling for ultimate flexibility

The extrusion heads use a modular quick-change die design that can be swapped without specialized tools, enabling seamless transition between cylindrical sticks, flat jerky strips, wide meat slices, or bespoke irregular shapes. This accommodates pure lean fillings, fat-and-lean mixtures, and fillings with visible fruit or cheese particulates — reducing total cost of ownership and floor footprint.
 
 

Quick-release sanitary design for thorough cleaning

All product-contact components are built for convenient disassembly: the flow distributor is fully removable, a key quick-release connector between the distributor and mould allows tool-free detachment and reattachment, and the forming mould is a single-piece multi-lane unit lifted out as one component. Combined with continuous-weld sloped surfaces that prevent water pooling, this supports high-pressure washdown and CIP (Clean-in-Place) compatibility, meeting European hygienic engineering standards.

Intelligent control system with recipe management

An integrated HMI touch-control system centralizes critical parameters — extrusion pressure, cutting speed, portion length, and throughput rate — on a single screen. It supports storage and recall of multiple product profiles for one-touch changeovers, and closed-loop control guarantees consistent, repeatable performance over long shifts with minimal operator intervention.
 
 
How the Line Works
  • Filling

    The vacuum filler delivers the prepared mix into the line under stable negative pressure.

  • Flow dividing

    2.The flexible flow distribution system splits the material synchronously and evenly across all lanes, maintaining uniform pressure without manual adjustment.

  • Extrusion

    Custom dies shape the continuous ribbon into the target profile (stick, strip, slice, or irregular shape) .

  • Cutting
    A cutting system (guillotine or rotary, selected per product) severs the extruded ribbon into exact lengths.
  • Conveying
    The cut pieces transfer onto a hygienic belt, aligned for seamless hand-off to downstream baking ovens, drying chambers, or freezers.
  • Control
    A central PLC with synchronization governs the whole process; recipe management enables one-key product changeover.

When contacting YuHanCo for a recommendation, please provide your target hourly or daily throughput, main product types, and whether co-extrusion or centre-filling is required — this lets the engineering team match the correct lane count and die set from the start.
Cleaning and Safety
