Easy loading for bowl cutters and grinders with Easy Lift from K+G Wetter
A full load of help: Easy Lift is a newly developed lifting system for Euro boxes for use with bowl cutters and grinders. With this innovation, K+G Wetter offers significant relief for the daily tasks of butchers. In most smaller grinders and bowl cutters, the ingredients are transported into the bowl cutter bowl and the grinder hopper by muscle power - unlike in large machines with hydraulic loading. With up to 20 kilos of meat, ice or other ingredients per E2 box, this manual lifting can add up to many hundreds of kilos of weight each working day. A real challenge for the backs, knees and arms of master butchers and their staff.
Simply ergonomic
For noticeable relief and improved ergonomics, K+G Wetter’s Easy Lift is the answer: This space-saving lifting device for standard Euro boxes can be easily attached to the machines, reducing the strain of countless lifting operations each day during cutting and grinding.
Using Easy Lift is straightforward: The boxes are simply pushed onto the special loading trolley and hooked into the lift. Easy Lift can handle a total weight of up to 130 kilograms. At the touch of a button, the top box is raised directly to the level of the cutter bowl or grinder hopper. Bending and heavy lifting become things of the past and the box contents can be easily transferred. When the trolley is empty, it automatically lowers at the push of a button and is ready for the next batch.
“Easy Lift is a great ergonomic plus for butchers”, says Volker Schlosser, Sales Manager International at K+G Wetter. "Customers can easily add the system to our grinders and bowl cutters or upgrade existing machines.”
Easy Lift at a glance
- Versatile in use: Easy Lift is always adapted to the height of the machine. It is designed to work equally well with grinders and bowl cutters. And Easy Lift can also be a solution for larger industrial machines - for example, when a loading device for meat trolleys is not possible due to lack of space.
- Space-saving and safe: When not in use, Easy Lift can simply be folded up onto the machine body, saving space in the sausage kitchen and eliminating tripping hazards. The lifting system is connected to the emergency stop button on the cutter or grinder to ensure safe operation.
- Hygienic and easy to clean: Easy Lift has been designed and built with hygiene in mind. This makes it an ideal fit for K+G Wetter's cutters and grinders, featuring cleanable stainless-steel surfaces with no hidden corners, and a hygienically optimized assembly, sealing, and operation.
