WASHER FOR LEGS AND SHOULDERS OF HAM
TO WASH LEGS AND SHOULDERS OF HAM CORRECTLY
HORIZONTAL HAM WASHER
Once hams are salted any surplus salt on the surface of the ham must be removed. If this is not done properly the finished product may present defects such as peeling or salt crystals. Sometimes insufficient attention is given to this operation when manual washing takes place. This can create discrepancies between hams and batches of hams. Our advanced washing system using water at high pressure together with hanging sprinklers and subsequent rinsing ensures that the salt is removed from each item in a uniform way, via a simple and productive operation, with high output.
Once the ham is placed on the conveyor belt it goes to the washing chamber where a system of sprinklers adapt to the surface of the ham and inject water at high pressure drawing off the salt, which is collected in a tank underneath. The water stays in the washing circuit thus obtaining an important saving. The ham then enters the rinsing area where it is rinsed with water from the mains. The ham comes out of the washer ready to be hung.
