Lutetia machines & product types
Vacuum Tumblers (Lutetia T-Series)
The core of the Lutetia portfolio consists of high-performance vacuum tumblers designed for multi-process applications.
- Lutetia T-Series Vacuum Tumblers – available in various capacities, these tumblers use a patented drum and paddle design to ensure homogeneous ingredient distribution, improved protein functionality and gentle product handling.
Multi-Process Tumblers
Lutetia tumblers are designed to perform more than standard marination.
- Multi-Process Tumbling Systems – enable combinations of marinating, tenderising, curing, massaging and flavour distribution within a single cycle, offering maximum flexibility for different recipes and product types.
Defrosting Tumblers
Lutetia offers dedicated solutions for controlled thawing of frozen raw materials.
- Vacuum Defrosting Tumblers – combine vacuum and controlled steam input to defrost products evenly, significantly reducing drip loss and preserving product structure compared to conventional thawing methods.
Injecting & Marination Integration
Lutetia systems can be integrated with injection technology to enhance process efficiency.
- Tumbler-Injector Combinations – allow precise brine or solution injection followed by immediate tumbling, ensuring deep and uniform ingredient penetration.
Customised Tumbling Lines
Beyond individual machines, Lutetia delivers tailored tumbling and marination lines.
- Integrated Tumbling Systems – designed to connect tumblers with conveyors, loaders, injectors and downstream processing equipment for fully automated production environments.
What is Lutetia specialised in?
Lutetia specialises in vacuum tumbling technology that consolidates multiple processing steps into one efficient operation. Their systems are engineered to:
- Improve ingredient distribution from surface to core
- Increase yield and protein extraction
- Reduce processing time and manual handling
- Enable multi-process functionality such as marinating, tenderising, curing and defrosting
These capabilities make Lutetia equipment ideal for manufacturers producing meat, poultry, fish, pet food and value-added convenience products where quality consistency and process efficiency are essential.
