ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a machine to ensure that the amount of food product in a can meets the volume and weight standards without altering the natural characteristics of the product necessary for the market. The invention encompasses a combination of scrapers or sweepers and a primary pocket turret assembly and including a rotating cylinder body having sweeper blades positioned thereon in a helical form so the amount of food product in associated cavities in the rotating table meets weight, volume, and product appearance standards. In addition, pneumatic cylinders and cam-driven cylinders from below compress the product in the device prior to the final leveling accomplished by the rotating helical sweepers.
