Ask a Question About This Product
The BTM.400S is a refrigerated meat sauce machine that processes marinated meat products with integrated cooling during tumbling cycles. It operates on 5 kW electric power at 380V three-phase supply. Used in butcher shops, charcuterie operations, hotel kitchens, and meat processing facilities.
Commercial Application
This machine combines mechanical tumbling with active refrigeration to maintain product temperature during marinade absorption cycles. Stainless steel drum rotates meat under vacuum or atmospheric pressure while cooling system prevents bacterial growth during extended processing times. Automatic discharge system empties processed batches without manual handling.
Processing cycles run from 30 minutes to 8 hours depending on meat cut and marinade penetration requirements. Refrigerated drum maintains 2-4°C during operation. Batch capacity of 400 kg suits commercial production schedules where consistent flavour distribution and temperature control are required simultaneously.
Key Operational Advantages
- 400 kg batch capacity processes full production runs in single cycles
- 5 kW refrigeration maintains 2-4°C during tumbling to prevent spoilage
- Stainless steel construction meets HACCP standards for raw meat contact
- Automatic discharge valve empties drum without manual scooping
- 380V three-phase motor provides continuous-duty operation rating
- Programmable timer controls tumbling duration and rest intervals

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the drum capacity in kg of meat product?
A: The BTM.400S processes 400 kg of meat per batch cycle. This capacity refers to actual product weight, not drum volume. Processing time varies from 30 minutes to 8 hours depending on meat cut and marinade viscosity.
Q: What motor power drives the drum rotation?
A: The unit uses a 5 kW motor operating on 380V three-phase supply. This power rating covers both drum rotation and the integrated refrigeration compressor. Continuous-duty rating allows extended tumbling cycles without thermal shutdown.
Q: How many speed settings does the drum rotation offer?
A: Drum speed is typically fixed at optimal tumbling RPM for meat processing, usually 8-12 RPM. Some models include variable speed control via inverter drive. Contact us to confirm if this unit has single-speed or variable control.
Q: What attachments or drum configurations are available?
A: The BTM.400S uses a fixed stainless steel drum with internal baffles for lifting and dropping meat during rotation. Optional vacuum pump attachment can be specified for vacuum tumbling cycles. Standard configuration includes atmospheric tumbling only.
Q: What is the duty cycle rating for continuous operation?
A: This machine is rated for continuous commercial operation with refrigeration system maintaining temperature throughout 8-hour processing cycles. Motor and compressor are sized for back-to-back batches during full production shifts. Cooling system prevents thermal overload during extended use.
