ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a process of producing sausages, wherein a tubular sausage casing closed at one end and provided with a figurative print is filled with sausage meat by pressing the sausage meat through the open end of the sausage casing into the same, where the sausage casing is carried along against the resistance of a casing brake and, corresponding to markers on the sausage casing, filled partial lengths of the sausage casing are divided off by compressing and closing them and are subsequently cut off from the remaining sausage casing, which process is characterized in that each filled partial length (sausage) is weighed after having been cut off, and the weight difference between a predetermined desired weight and the actual weight of the partial length is determined, and that the braking force of the casing brake is increased when the actual weight of the filled partial length is smaller than its desired weight, but is decreased when the actual weight is larger than the desired weight, until the actual weight and the desired weight correspond with each other. The invention furthermore consists in an apparatus for producing sausages by means of a sausage casing bearing a figurative print, in particular for carrying out the inventive process, comprising a filling tube and a casing brake as well as means for closing and cutting off filled partial lengths of the sausage casing (sausages), where the apparatus has a balance for individual sausages and an evaluation unit, and where the braking force of the casing brake can be set by means of a setting unit, and the balance is connected with the setting unit via the evaluation unit.
