ABSTRACT:
An improved high speed stuffing machine for forming links such as frankfurters. The permanent stuffing horn of a conventional link stuffing machine is dispensed with, and apparatus is provided for utilizing highly compacted shirred casing carried directly on a disposable core, wherein the core serves as a rotatable stuffing horn. A roller chuck is provided for engaging and rotating the cored casing article for purposes of linking, and resisting the thrust of the core due to emulsion flow while providing an emulsion seal between the casing article and chuck to prevent backflow of emulsion. The aft end of the core is received in a quick connect emulsion discharge which provides a bearing surface and a rotating emulsion seal to allow the core to rotate while the discharge remains stationary. The cored high density casing article allows the casing length to be increased by an integral multiple over conventional practice, which results in significant economies in the high speed production of linked sausages.
