Schröder IMAX HIGHline walking beam
The industrial injector for bone-in and boneless meat: three sizes, from 420 to 620 mm
In the IMAX 420, 520 and 620 the product is transported by an all-stainless walking beam that lifts and moves forward while the needles are outside the meat: robust, hygienic and precise transport, with the advance set to 50 or 100 mm. It is the HIGHline designed for hams, loins, bone-in meat and all large-piece products, up to 223 m² of injected area per hour.

Why choose the Schröder IMAX HIGHline walking beam
Stainless walking beam on an elliptic curve
The stainless-steel rake lifts and advances the product only while the needles are outside the meat: no dragging, no product damage, maximum hygiene.
50 or 100 mm advance, selected on the panel
100 mm for maximum throughput with a wide pattern; 50 mm for a twice-as-dense stitch pattern, a higher injection rate and perfect distribution even at very low pressure.
Low pressure, high uniformity
Hollow-needle injection from 0.5 to 4.5 bar: brine reaches the needles through a system of pumps and pipes with an expansion tank, for constant needle-tip pressure.
10.4″ touch panel with recipes
Central controls for pressure, speed and injection mode; user and recipe management; needle manifold visible through the inspection window.
Brine always clean
Self-cleaning rotary filter and powerful rotary pump: no clogged needles, no pressure drops during the shift.
Designed for sanitation
Brine feed lines outside the machine and completely removable, all-stainless walking beam, full access for cleaning and inspection.
