EQUIPMENT: BIRO GRINDERS

Carl G. Biro, Sr. was an American immigrant who founded the seedling company of BIRO Manufacturing in the early 1920's. Carl had a humble beginning as the son of a local blacksmith in his native country of Hungary. After settling in America, Carl became an apprentice who attended technical school at night and on the weekends

Eventually, Carl became the proprietor of his own meat market. During his proprietorship, he realized the need for a practical machine which would cut meat more effectively. Thus, in 1921, unable to ignore his ambitions of creating a practical meat cutter, Carl decided to dispose of his meat market so that he could devote more time to his concept. He leased an old church and used the equipment which was available and affordable at the time to pursue his "American Dream" and produce the first BIRO Power Meat, Fish and Bone Cutter.

In time, Carl's machine gained national as well as international recognition and acceptance. Biro's leadership in the meat cutting industry was unmistakably established. In order to keep up with the growing product demand, BIRO Manufacturing moved from the leased church building to a small but modern factory building. This establishment has grown to be the facility which now houses our corporate headquarters

Today, The BIRO Manufacturing Company markets over 35 items, including meat saws, tenderizers, meat grinders, chicken cutters, vacuum tumblers, horizontal slicers, and other meat processing machinery. This equipment is used in the United States and throughout the world. The company has certainly grown tremendously from the tiny seedling factory conceptualized by Carl Biro during the early 20's!

Those involved in The BIRO Manufacturing Corporation today strive for progress towards a still more advanced product and to gain a greater measure of goodwill and respect from those who deal with it. We here at BIRO face the future with the firm belief that . .."The best is yet to come."

MODEL AFMG-24 MIXER GRINDER

The Biro AFMG-24 Mixer Grinder is an ideal mixer grinder for today’s compact supermarket meatroom. Its 5hp/3.7 kW (7.5 hp/5.6 kW optional) auger motor, 145 lbs. (66 kg) hopper, and size 32 head can give you an output of up to 65 lbs. (29 kg) per minute for the productivity you need. For even more productivity, your AFMG-24 can come with an optional meat lug holder (see reverse) and an optional electric or pneumatic footswitch. The heavy duty stainless steel hopper, frame, and legs can stand up to years of daily washdown and still resist corrosion, so your mixer grinder lasts longer, and you get a better return on your investment. Of course, it’s built with the superior engineering you expect from BIRO.

MODEL AFMG-48 MIXER GRINDER

The BIRO Model AFMG-48 is a workhorse mixer grinder for the medium volume meat operation. Its 7.5  hp (5.6 kw) auger motor and size 32 head can give an output of over 65 pounds (30 kg) per minute for  the productivity you need. Separate auger and mixer motors mean there is no clutch to wear out or break, which means much lower maintenance costs and higher profits. The single reduction heavy duty roller chain auger drive with tapered roller bearings is the most efficient drive system, so you get maximum  power to the auger. The heavy duty stainless steel 200 pound (91 kg) hopper, frame, and legs can stand  up to years of daily washdown and still resist corrosion, so your mixer grinder lasts longer and you get a better return on your investment. Power, durability, and low maintenance.

MODEL EMG-32 ERGONOMIC MIXER GRINDER

Shown with standard pneumatic footswitch lug cart not shown.

Raise your meat grinding operations to new heights of productivity, efficiency, and profit with the BIRO EMG-32 Ergonomic Mixer Grinder. The top of the hopper is lowered so that the average operator no longer has to lift a full meat lug above their shoulders to dump it in the hopper, and the grinding head is  raised to a height where you don’t have to bend over to fill trays prior to packaging. Just as important,  you get all of this without sacrificing the quality of your grind. The auger is parallel to the floor, so the  product isn’t compressed too much from being forced uphill, and the typical temperature rise of the  product is 0 to less than 4° F (depending on product temperature). This helps ensure maximum shelf life.  The twin mixing paddles give you a fast, even, thorough blend without overworking your product;  the auger is fed evenly and smoothly. The EMG-32′s compact size means it fits nicely in today’s smaller,  more efficient meat rooms, so that you can continue to maintain a high level of productivity in minimum  space. Of course, all of this comes with the superior BIRO design and reliability you’ve come to depend  on.

MODEL AFMG-56 MK III MIXER GRINDER

With the BIRO Model AFMG-56 Mk III Mixer Grinder you can start increasing the output of your  grinding operation without having to spend a fortune.
The 800 lb. (362.9 kg) hopper gives you the kind  of capacity you need, and the 20 hp (15 kW) auger motor gives you the power you need. The 5 hp (3.7 kW) mixer motor is strong enough that it won’t bog down with a full hopper, and the twin mixing  paddles give you a quick, thorough mix. Safety interlocks and a pneumatic lift for the lid help ensure  safety, and the machine has watertight controls and TEFC motors so you can do a full washdown  cleanup. The hopper and frame are constructed of heavy duty stainless steel so it resists damage and  corrosion. As with all BIRO designed and built machines, you get the benefit of over 90 years of  engineering experience in building meat processing equipment.

MODEL AFMG-56-4 AUTO FEED MIXER GRINDER

With the BIRO Model AFMG-56-4 Mixer Grinder you can start increasing the output of your grinding operation without having to spend a fortune to do it. The 400 lb. (182 kg) hopper gives you the kind of capacity you need, and the 15 hp (11.2 kw) auger motor gives you the power you need. The 5 hp (3.7 kw) mixer motor is heavy enough that it won’t bog down with a full hopper, and the twin mixing paddles give you a quick, thorough mix. The machine has watertight controls and TEFC motors so you can do a full washdown cleanup. The hopper, frame, paddles, bowl, ring, and auger are all constructed of heavy duty stainless steel so it resists damage and corrosion. As with all BIRO designed and built machines, you get the benefit of over 80 years of engineering experience in building meat processing equipment.
