The invention relates to a reliable cutting set system for a meat mincing machine. The mutually matched coding (14, 24) between knife pins (10) and the cutting set element (20) prevents an incorrect installation of the cutting set element (20) after a cleaning process or during the initial assembly, thereby increasing the operational safety. The invention allows a detection of the correct cutting set element (20) of a cutting set system and thus an unambiguous allocation of the cutting set element to a knife pin (10) of a cutting set system.

The invention relates to a blade, more particularly for a meat grinder. The blade (10) has a collar-type sealing ring (18) between the hub (11) and the inner ends of the blade wings (14). Said sealing ring (18) has the same height as the hub (11) as the adjacent sealing ring (18) has or the hub (11) has a smaller height. The hub (11) thus does not impede the rubbing of the cutting edges (16, 17) of the blade (10) or the rubbing of the sealing ring (18).

An emulsion system is provided. The system includes a shaft that supports a plurality of cutting assemblies and screens in alternating order, wherein the cutting assembly rotates with respect to an in close proximity to the screen. The cutting assemblies include a plurality of cutting elements that extend radially outward from a hub and are positioned at consistent radial spacing along the perimeter of the hub. Each cutting element includes front and back edges that cut food particles in conjunction with holes within the screen, wherein the front and back edges are substantially perpendicular.

The invention relates to a mincing machine with cutting elements and a screw conveyor (10) which is rotatably mounted in a housing and is connected to a blade pin (20). The blade pin (20) is advantageously connectable and can be easily disconnected again.

An emulsion system is provided. The system includes a shaft that supports a plurality of cutting assemblies and plates in alternating order, wherein the cutting assembly rotates with respect to an in close proximity to the plate. The plurality of cutting plates each on their circumferential edge have an identification system to memorialize the diameter of the emulsion holes.

A grinding machine includes first feed screw, first head, first center pin, first knife assembly, bushing and first orifice plate. Second feed screw is coupled to first center pin and rotates within second head. Second feed screw is positioned against the bushing such that the bushing acts as a thrust bearing. Second center pin is coupled to second feed screw and is configured to rotate a second knife assembly. Second orifice plate is arranged on second center pin. Second mounting ring can be linearly adjusted relative to second head to axially position second orifice plate between a stop shoulder of second head and a lip of second mounting ring. Second feed screw may include a plurality of flights arranged in a split flight configuration including one or more ingress end flights and one or more egress end flights.
