ACCUFILL™ QUAD-BATCHING SYSTEM

FROM GAINCO PROVIDES HIGH-SPEED OPERATION,

SUPERIOR ACCURACY, AND LABOR SAVINGS

Gainesville, Ga., June 25, 2007— The new AccuFill™ Quad-Batching System from Gainco, Inc. provides the most efficient, high-speed way to collect and group meat, poultry and other food items for downstream handling such as bagging or boxing. The system combines superior weighing accuracy with efficiency improvements, resulting in significant labor reductions and a more streamlined process.

Suitable for processing whole muscle meat as well as further processed products, the AccuFill™ Quad-Batching System collects, weighs, batches and, optionally, counts four separate streams of incoming product. The finished batches are then indexed to any one of several downstream processes such as bulk packaging or bagging to a vertical form-fill-and-seal system.

Gainco’s AccuFill™ Quad-Batching System offers many benefits to food processors. Logistics and process efficiencies are improved, while labor savings of six to eight full-time employees in a double-shift operation are attainable. The labor savings alone enables the system to deliver an ROI of less than 12 months.

The AccuFill™ Quad-Batching System features Gainco’s own Infiniti™ Plus programmable controller which identifies, prioritizes, batches, indexes and confirms the type, weight and count of products being batched at any given moment. The Infiniti™ weight indicator provides today’s best protection against washdown water and condensation due to a highly durable polymeric housing that protects the weighing apparatus equally well in cold work environments and during hot washdowns and high-pressure washing. Likewise, the housing is impervious to the harsh chemicals typically used in washdown procedures in meat, poultry and seafood processing environments, and third-party tests demonstrate that the unit’s performance meets the stringent IP69K washdown standard.

AccuFill™ Quad-Batching Systems from Gainco carry a one-year limited warranty covering the weighing components, while the Infiniti™ Plus programmable controller carries a two-year warranty on parts. Through its Blue Ribbon Service subsidiary, Gainco offers expert 24-hour, 7-day service on batching systems, weighing equipment, distribution systems, and software support. Service is conducted by Blue Ribbon Service’s certified, factory-trained technicians, and all service work is guaranteed.

Batching systems are manufactured by Gainco, Inc., a subsidiary of Bettcher Industries and a leading U.S. supplier of scale systems for the meat, poultry and seafood processing industries. Gainco offers design engineering, equipment manufacturing, systems delivery and comprehensive service contracts to processing facilities nationwide, as well as outside the United States.
