ABSTRACT:
An automated meat portion sizing apparatus is disclosed which includes a plurality of mandrels provided with a meat-receiving sizing chamber mounted on a support frame for repetitive travel between a loading and unloading station. The sizing chambers are conformed to receive a selected shape and volume of a meat portion to provide the selected weight portion desired. A knife is provided along the path of travel to remove any excess meat portion extending outside the sizing chamber. The excess portion is collected separately prior to the mandrel reaching the unloading station where the controlled size portion is automatically removed from the sizing chamber for convenient collection.
