The TK-12 Commercial Meat Grinder & Mincer is a stainless-steel electric meat processing machine designed for butchers, restaurants, catering kitchens and food preparation businesses. With a manufacturer-rated production capacity of up to 150kg of meat per hour, it provides a compact solution for preparing fresh mince in professional environments.
The TK-12 combines a commercial electric drive system with a No.12 grinding head and interchangeable grinding components, allowing fresh meat to be processed into consistent mince for a range of food preparation applications.
Up to 150kg/h Meat Processing Capacity
With an output of up to 150kg per hour, the TK-12 is designed for repeated meat preparation where domestic meat mincers may not provide sufficient throughput.
Its production capacity makes it suitable for smaller butchers, restaurants, takeaway kitchens, catering operations and other businesses preparing batches of fresh minced meat.
Actual processing output will vary according to the type, size and preparation of the meat being processed.
No.12 Meat Grinding System
The TK-12 uses a No.12 grinding head, a commonly used commercial meat-mincing format.
Meat is fed through the stainless-steel tray and feed opening before the internal auger moves it towards the cutting blade and grinding plate. The rotating blade cuts the meat against the perforated plate to produce a consistent minced output.
Interchangeable grinding plates allow the resulting texture to be adapted for different food preparation requirements.
Stainless-Steel Construction
The TK-12 uses stainless steel extensively throughout its body and food-contact components, providing a durable surface suited to commercial food preparation.
The stainless-steel feed tray provides space for prepared meat before grinding, while removable grinding components allow the machine to be dismantled for cleaning after use.
The matching TK-12 manufacturer platform specifies 304 stainless-steel construction.
Electric Meat Mincer for Commercial Kitchens
Electric operation reduces the manual effort required to process repeated batches of meat and provides consistent operation for commercial food preparation.
The TK-12 is designed as a countertop commercial meat mincer, allowing it to provide substantial processing capacity without requiring the floor space of larger industrial meat-processing machinery.
Comparable TK-12 machines are used in butcher shops, restaurants, hotels, kitchens and catering environments.
Meat Preparation for Burgers, Meatballs & Sausages
The TK-12 can be used to prepare fresh minced meat for a variety of recipes and food-production tasks, including:
- burgers
- meatballs
- sausages
- koftas
- minced beef
- minced lamb
- minced pork
- prepared meat fillings
- general commercial food preparation
A documented TK-12 manufacturer configuration also includes a sausage attachment alongside its grinding plates and cutting blades.
Compact Countertop Design
Despite its commercial output, the TK-12 uses a relatively compact benchtop format, allowing it to be installed alongside other commercial kitchen equipment on a suitable commercial food-preparation surface.
This makes the machine suitable for businesses that require higher meat-mincing capacity without moving to a substantially larger floor-standing grinder.
Its removable grinding components also provide access to the food-contact areas for cleaning and maintenance after use.
Suitable for Fresh Meat Processing
The TK-12 is primarily designed for processing fresh, boneless meat.
Meat should be cut into appropriately sized pieces before feeding and should be free from bones or other hard material that could damage the grinding mechanism. A separately documented commercial TK-12 specifically instructs users to process fresh rather than frozen meat and to ensure bones are removed.
For best results, always use the machine according to the supplied operating instructions and clean all food-contact components thoroughly after use.
