Understanding the Meat Grinder

Operational Mechanism
Food is placed into a funnel atop the grinder, then advances into a horizontal screw conveyor. Whether hand-cranked or powered electrically, this conveyor compresses and mixes the food. Eventually, the minced food exits through a fixed plate, its fineness determined by the size of the plate’s holes.
Historical Background

Evolution and Innovation
With the widespread availability of electricity, powered meat grinders emerged. Modern electric models efficiently and uniformly process large volumes of meat. Some even come with attachments for sausage-making, kibbe, and juicing, broadening their range of applications.
