Minebea Intec’s latest weighing and inspection technologies offer a range of solutions for meat substitute producers, such as the Novego weighing module, developed specifically for tank and process vessel weighing in the food and pharmaceutical industries. 

In order to come as close as possible to the traditional schnitzel, steak or burger in terms of shape, consistency, taste, smell and mouthfeel, the highest quality standards are required in production. The recipes often consist of more than 30 individual components - be it different flavourings or fibre structures of fruit seeds, pulses or vegetable peelings. To bring the ingredients together in the right proportions, companies will work with systems such as the Novego.

The Novego is a hygienic all-in-one solution with a variety of features for easy, error-free installation as well as maximum resistance to lateral forces, and can be easily integrated into the production lines of manufacturing companies as an OEM solution, ensuring process reliability, measurement ac-curacy and fast cleaning processes. It's corrosion resistance of the stainless steel as well as the product design oriented towards the guidelines of the EHEDG make the weighing module insensitive to dirt, water and even aggressive cleaning agents.
