Commercial Beef Jerky Processing Line
products display
Main Equipment in the Beef Jerky Processing Line:
Beef Slicing Machine
Cuts beef into uniform thin slices for consistent drying. Adjustable slicing thickness available for different jerky textures.
Low-Temperature Meat Dryer
IKE heat pump drying machines operate at 50–80°C, ensuring slow and even dehydration. This gentle drying method retains the meat’s natural flavor, texture, and nutritional value. For enhanced hygiene, optional UV sterilization systems can be integrated into the drying chamber. We also offer customizable accessories tailored to different meat products, such as smoke-infusing systems for traditional jerky flavors or specialized trays and airflow configurations for varied meat cuts.
Jerky Packaging Machine
We recommend vertical form fill seal (VFFS) or premade pouch packaging machines, suitable for irregular-shaped jerky products. Machines can handle zipper pouches, stand-up pouches, and aluminum foil bags. Optional functions include:
- Vacuum or nitrogen flushing
- Date coding and labeling
- Automatic insertion of oxygen absorbers or preservative pouches
Seasoning / Marination Machine (Optional)
For clients who want to pre-season the meat, we offer a seasoning tumbler or marination tank. However, most international clients prefer unseasoned, natural-style jerky.
