Enhanced Feeding and Material Capacity

This chicken patty nuggets machine features an enlarged 32-liter barrel, enabling smooth and continuous operation with a single operator, eliminating the need for additional personnel to load materials. Based on common meat patty dimensions of 10 cm in diameter and 8 mm in thickness, the hopper supports a single discharge and continuous production for approximately 15 minutes. For McNuggets-sized chicken nuggets measuring 57.64 x 36.5 mm, the hopper can operate continuously for up to 30 minutes. The machine operates on the principle of hydroforming, raw materials are delivered to one side of the barrel via a robust conveying system, which then cooperates with a continuously rotating mold to shape the products. The powerful spiral conveyor ensures uniform feeding, and the seamless coordination between the conveying system and the mold results in highly consistent and near-perfect patty and nugget formation. Additionally, a water spray device is installed at the meat patty cutting position to prevent the patty from sticking to the mesh belt. To ensure operator safety and maintain cleanliness, a trumpet-shaped water retention device is positioned opposite the spray, preventing water from splashing onto the operator during spraying and helping to keep the surrounding area clean and hygienic during production.

Efficient Easy Operation Control Panel

The VERFOODSOLUTIONS chicken patty nuggets machine features a user-friendly control panel designed for easy operation. The control box adopts an intuitive interface, equipped with essential controls such as an emergency stop button, a machine run switch, and a stop switch. The push-button controls are simple and straightforward, making it easy for even beginners to operate—just press the start button to power on the machine, and then activate the mesh belt with a separate switch. Additionally, the panel displays the feeding speed, allowing operators to monitor and adjust as needed. If the thickness of the chicken nuggets or patties does not meet your desired specifications, you can easily modify the feeding speed by pressing the appropriate button to achieve the ideal product thickness. In case of an emergency, simply press the emergency stop button to halt operation immediately. The machine can produce up to 2,200 patties per hour, with a maximum diameter of 140 mm, and can also produce approximately 6,600 chicken nuggets per hour. To complement the forming process, the last equipment that matches this machine is the tray placing machine. We also offer customization options, including the addition of an inverter based on customer requirements. Customers who wish to evenly place patties onto fixed trays can easily adjust the mesh belt speed and control the spacing between patties, facilitating seamless linking with the tray placing machine for improved efficiency.

Customized Forming Molds

The chicken patty nuggets machine operates on a high-pressure screw system that conveys meat to the cavity, where a tightly pressed knife quickly cuts and flattens it, shaping the product which then falls onto the mesh belt. It offers extensive customization with interchangeable molds, allowing production of patties and nuggets in various shapes such as rectangles, rounds, triangles, squares, ovals, hearts, animal shapes (fish, dinosaurs, dogs, cats), bones, water drops, strips, trapezoids, onion rings, and more. These molds can be tailored to different sizes, including classic round, star, heart, and specific dimensions like McNuggets (58.74 x 36.5 mm) or patties up to 100 mm in diameter. factories.  The machine can produce patties with a maximum diameter of 140 mm; for example, 85 mm patties can be produced two at a time. It also produces standard-sized McNuggets measuring 58.74 x 36.5 mm, capable of scraping out three nuggets simultaneously, resulting in an output of 6,600 nuggets per hour (2200 x 3). Simply provide us with your product images, desired size, and thickness, and we can customize molds to suit your needs.

Customized Mesh Belt Solutions

Typically, standard mesh belts for chicken patty nuggets machine feature wire spacings of 8mm with a 1.5mm diameter, 10mm spacing with 2.0mm diameter, or 12.5mm spacing with 2.5mm diameter, ensuring compatibility with the matching mesh belt gear for smooth rotation. For smaller products, selecting a mesh belt with a smaller diameter helps prevent items from getting stuck in the middle of the belt. Conversely, larger products require a larger diameter belt to enhance load-bearing capacity. The length and height of the mesh belt’s output end can be customized based on your operational needs. If space or budget constraints necessitate shortening the connection with the molding machine, we can provide an extended conveyor belt—typically, the distance from the support rod to the end of the belt is 60cm, but many customers opt for a 30cm length due to site limitations. We can also adjust the height of the output end to better suit your setup, especially if the connecting device is too short or too high. Additionally, the output end of the mesh belt is designed with an adjustable angle to facilitate seamless connection with subsequent equipment. Most customers connect the mesh belt to tempura battering machine, allowing the product to transition smoothly without deformation. Please provide details of your site specifications—including the height and length of the input end of the connecting machine—so we can tailor a customized solution that best fits your operational requirements.
