DJM has developed a complete line of VacForm plate forming machines for the production of burgers, nuggets, fish sticks, vegetable products and more. The VacForm operates in conjunction with a Vemag Filler. The Vemag portions and transports product to the VacForm, where it is then formed into the desired shape.

Vemag Filler
The Vemag Filler features a powerful positive displacement double-screw pump that provides the highest levels of portioning accuracy. The double-screw transports product extremely gently. An inline Vemag Separation Grinder can be added to the line so that the last cut occurs just before forming. This provides excellent product quality with very good color, a clear structure, uniform particle distribution and reduced smear.

DJM VacForm Plate Forming Machine
The DJM VacForm is a highly versatile plate forming machine. It provides multi-lane production with superior weight accuracy across all lanes. The patented DJM pressure distribution system uses low pressure to shape and form the product. This low pressure system provides significant advantages:

  • Extremely accurate portioning and weight control
  • Better product bite
  • Dramatic reduction in “squeeze loss”, which significantly increases yields

The Vemag DJM VacForm machines can produce up to 7,500 lbs. of chicken nuggets and up to 9,000 lbs. of burgers per hour. An automatic paper interleaving system can be added to the line so that product can be produced in interleaved stacks.

The VacForm features a simple design and a low cost of ownership. It is also one of the quietest plate forming machines in the industry.

The VacForm is available in three different widths:

  • VF04 (400 mm)
  • VF06 (600 mm)
  • VF12 (1200 mm)
