TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of food processing equipment, in particular to a ham quantitative salting machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] Ham salting is an ancient food processing technology. In the era without modern refrigeration technology, people used ham salting to solve the problem of ham preservation and transportation. During the ham salting process, salt penetrates into the meat, making the meat more solid and delicious, and increasing the taste and flavor of the ham.
[0003] Ham salting is basically manually rubbed and pickled by manpower. Ham salting is carried out in multiple times, and the amount of salt in each time is different. Traditionally, the salt is manually operated, which can easily lead to inaccurate control of the amount of salt in different times. If the amount of salt is too small, the ham is difficult to preserve, and if the amount of salt is too large, the ham is too salty, which affects the taste. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a ham quantitative salting machine, which can automatically record and identify the number of times of ham salting through code scanning, accurately provide salt during each salting, ensure that the amount of salt in each salting can be accurately controlled, and thus guarantee the quality and taste of the ham.

When salting the ham, some salt cannot be adhered to the ham and scatters on the table top 12, which increases the amount of salt for the next salting. The scattered salt on the table top 12 is directly thrown away, which is relatively wasteful.
