Powerful, high-volume indexing solutions for processors

• Operators can process up to 25,000 pounds per manned station per hour.
• Our system design allows for batching and buffering products to maintain a constant flow and maximize throughput.
• Our load cell design allows batches to settle quickly for faster cycle rates.
• Optional dimpled steel hoppers allow "sticky" product to flow more easily to maintain fast processing cycles.

AccuFill indexing bulking systems aren't just easy to install. They're easy to maintain as well:

• All models are designed in conformity with AMI sanitary principles.
• The open-frame design saves labor during washdown operations, allowing for faster, deeper cleaning while reducing chemical and hot water usage.
• Fewer replacement parts make our systems easier and less costly to service, too.

Whether you choose our single, dual or triple bulker systems at 40 or 70 pounds, you'll find that Cantrell•Gainco bulker capabilities cover the full range of your fresh or frozen meat processing applications – chicken, turkey, pork and beef.

We also offer a range of equipment options to ensure you get the very best, most effective bulking system for your plant. Options like:

• Mobility kits for roll-in/roll-out functionality
• Product mix options to process two products in a batch
• Manual bypass for weight-making flexibility
• Line control kits for stopping/starting infeed conveyors
• Dimpled stainless steel hoppers to handle tacky or sticky products
• Trim ledge
• Diverters
• Product funnels
• Stainless steel roller top in place of PVC
• Flat table in place of PVC roller top
• Data scale interface for case labeling

The Legal-for-Trade (LFT) bulker combines bulk packing, labeling, and inventory record transfer functions into a single convenient workstation while eliminating process redundancies, reducing labor costs, and reducing the overall process footprint.

• Product is fed via a conveyor or other material handling device to the bulker.
• Product falls through an open buffer hopper into a container on the weigh deck.
• Once a pre-programmed target weight is achieved, the buffer hopper closes and the product collects in the buffer hopper until the infeed stop delay is surpassed, or the system is re-set by the operator.
• The bulker operator can "make weight," if needed, to achieve the final target weight. After weight has been met, the operator pushes the "print" button and applies the container label, then moves the full container to the next processing step.
• Next, the operator places an empty container on the weigh deck and press the "auto start" button to begin the next fill cycle.
• The operation continues until parameter changes are required, a process break occurs, or the end of the shift is reached.

High throughput, reduced labor and robust design.

AccuFill® indexing bulking systems deliver highly efficient and effective automation of bulk packing applications. They’re ideal for the full range of fresh or frozen poultry and meat processing applications, making them your best choice for automated bulk packing needs.

AccuFill indexing bulkers are so effective, most systems have six-month or shorter payback periods, making them a "no-brainer" when deciding to invest in the equipment.

The many performance advantages you attain with our indexing bulkers include:

• Reduced product "giveaway" with a dual load cell design that allows batches to settle quickly, along with "auto-zero" software that automatically adjusts for product accumulation on the hopper surface for superior weighing accuracy
• A constant flow of product is maintained to maximize throughput
• Optional dimpled steel hoppers allow tacky or sticky product to flow more easily
• Automatic bulk-filling and indexing result in labor savings
• Higher throughput capacity – up to 1,440 pounds-per-minute
• From 8 up to 20 cycles per minute with the NEW triple system
• Lower installation costs are achieved with "plug and play" capabilities
• Efficient bulk packing for a variety of containers, including 22 lb., 40 lb., 70 lb., and 33 lb. export boxes
• On-board diagnostics
• Maintenance-friendly, along with easy accessibility for service

Application-specific Designs

In the poultry and meat industry, "one size" does not fit all. That's why we offer a range of indexing bulking configurations and options to meet the specific needs of each plant:

• Multiple configurations include single, dual and triple systems ... knuckle chain conveyors with pop-up gates or flighted belt conveyors
• The ability to accommodate your specific bulking requirements – boxes, totes, etc.
• Adjustable lower and upper limits along with weight setpoints
• The ability to easily integrate the indexing bulking system with your existing material handling equipment
• The triple indexer has conveyor control on the control panel
• Emergency stops
