This article is aimed at our DFC Line customers. Our chicken and meat shredders use an exclusive system that guarantees the best possible shredding (perfect shredding).
So, if the result you’re achieving isn’t as good as you’d like, here are the main reasons why.
In order for the shredding process to take place correctly, the fibers need to be able to separate. And for this to happen, they need to melt some of the collagen between them, which is what holds them together. If the cooking time is shorter than we suggest, some of the fibers will still stick together, so the shredding may not be as good.
Keep an eye on the cooking time, knowing that you can adjust it depending on your needs for the final result.
The fat present in the meat acts as a glue for the fibers, making it impossible for our shredders to separate the fibers at the points where there is fat. That’s why it’s necessary to either remove all the fat beforehand or cook until the fat begins to melt.
During the shredding process, as you add products, such as meat and chicken, they accumulate on top of the shredding system. Over time, the products that come after end up not having direct contact with the system, which means that the shredding of the products that come after is not as good as the shredding of the initial products.
That’s why, if you’re noticing a difference in final quality, all our DFC Line shredders have a rear support drawer, which allows the shredding system to be quickly removed and replaced so that the products that were accumulating on top of the system can come out, thus unloading the machine and guaranteeing the correct process for the new products that arrive.
With three-phase machines, it is possible that when you install your equipment, the motor runs in the wrong direction. Make sure that when you put your meat or chicken in the shredder, the system doesn’t throw the product upwards. This is an indicator that the direction of operation is reversed.
