High performance massaging or tumbling
The GEA ScanMidi is one machine, but carries out multiple processes. Those include high capacity massaging, tumbling, marinating, ingredient dosing, rinsing, coating and cooling. The drum speed, process time, rotation direction and vacuum can all be adjusted, giving you many ways to control the process and optimize results. Thanks to the equipment flexibility you can utilize the system to the max and speed up the return on your investment. The ScanMidi massaging and tumbling system is available in 2500, 4000, 6000 and 10.000 liter versions.
GEA ScanMidi massaging and tumbling system
Main applications
GEA ScanMidi can be used for a wide variety of pork, beef, poultry, fish and seafood products.
Patented asymmetric carriers provide ultimate flexibility
- Gentle ‘meat-on-meat’ massaging ideal for sensitive products
- Fast and agitated tumbling suited to less sensitive products, speeding process times
- Cooling in carriers for temperature control aids product consistency and quality
- Hygienic drum design with no hidden corners to allow fast, thorough cleaning
Fast processing time and high filling degree
- Drum design and drive control ensure short processing times and help maximize the number of batches per day
- Wide (900 mm) lid opening and adjustable drum angle make loading, discharge and cleaning easier
- User-friendly HMI (human-machine-interface) feature intuitive process visualization and enable process analytics
Advanced controlled process
- Massaging and tumbling under continuous vacuum to prevent oxidation, avoid foaming and improve protein extraction, product yield and color
- Precise vacuum and temperature control to help achieve better yield, while reducing product damage
- Accurate load cells enable precise weight and dosing control
- Addition of dry and wet ingredients via vacuum
Specifications
Advanced technologyDual massaging and tumbling action
During massaging (clockwise rotation of drum), the 5 asymmetric carriers give a gentle ‘meat-on-meat’ massaging action without lifting, which helps to preserve the product's original texture. During tumbling (anticlockwise drum rotation) the asymmetric carriers lift the product for agitation action, which commonly enables shorter processing times. Tumbling is commonly used for less sensitive products, such as larger and tougher muscles.
Heat-chill technology
The optional heat-chill system uses a glycol-based heat exchanger to heat or chill the drum, and carriers. This can speed up the brine absorption process and reduce the overall tumbling time.

Add-ons
Complement your ScanMidi system with additional equipmentGEA ColdSteam T for faster and controlled defrosting
GEA ColdSteam T - Industrial defrosting technology redefined
Upgrade your ScanMidi by choosing GEA ColdSteam technology. It uses steam under near-vacuum to quickly defrost meat safely in the sealed environment of the tumbler, which eliminates the risk of contamination. Meat juices are retained, without compromising product quality or overall yield. The unique ColdSteam technology can help to ensure process consistency, efficiency and throughput.

L'équation de l'eau
Partout en Europe, la sécheresse est une réalité récurrente, qui ne se limite plus au sud. Si l'eau influence de plus en plus le choix de la localisation des industries, sa valeur est déterminée par le contexte local. Il existe de nombreuses voies technologiques pour optimiser les usages de l'eau dans les processus industriels, mais la localisation, les besoins énergétiques et d'autres facteurs jouent également un rôle essentiel.
