Nemco has entered into a partnership with Astech

Nemco has partnered with one of the world's technological leaders in band sawing machines for meat and fish.

The Spanish company, Astech, has a unique position in automatic band sawing of sliced or diced fish and meat with and without bones, where the products are frozen or alternatively at a temperature just above 0 degrees centigrade.

Creating added value for food producers
Nemco's co-operation with Astech includes sales and service in Denmark and Sweden. According to Nemco CEO Lars Olsgaard, Astech's machines will be of particular interest to meatpackers who want to automate previously manual processes, among other things to increase safety.

- "Our goal with the collaboration with Astech is to create added value for the individual food producer. With Astech's new automatic band saws, you can achieve highly advanced products that are suitable for grilling, sous-vide and oven cooking. Consumers will be able to get an optimal experience, both when preparing and consuming dishes based on products cut with Astech machines," says Lars Olsgaard.

Precise slices on weight
Astech machines have the crucial advantage of using the latest technology to produce precise slices by weight based on pre-set parameters. The fixed weight slices are achieved by first scanning and calculating the volume of the product - and then sawing it.Astech offers a number of applications, including band sawing of t-bone steaks, pork shank, osso buco, pork toes and chickens, splitting of beef bones and band sawing of frozen fish, including salmon, cod and pollock.

Nemco will present the solutions at two demo days on 19 and 20 June at Nemco Service Center in Viby J, where you can bring your own products and test them on Astech machines. Sign up for the event at nemco@nemco.dk
