Automatic Flexographic Marking of Meat Carcasses
The automatic flexographic marking unit for printing on moving carcasses in industrial slaughterhouse production lines.
The Giugni® Flexo Printer 397 is designed for direct marking of bovine, porcine and ovine-caprine carcasses using flexographic printing plates and non-toxic food-grade inks, free from harmful volatile solvents and featuring instant drying.
The three-roller inking system with integrated Anilox roller ensures consistent volumetric ink metering, while the dual-stroke pneumatic system, equipped with photocells and a mechanical contact roller, compensates for carcass movements and oscillations, ensuring controlled and calibrated printing pressure.
The machine is designed for slaughterhouse environments, featuring easily removable components, a quick-release ink tray and a removable printing plate holder to facilitate cleaning and sanitization operations.
