Solving Beef Processing Challenges, One Patty at a Time

Consistent Beef Products. Reliable Production Performance. 

From hamburger patties and meatballs to premium value-added beef products, Tomahawk helps processors overcome production challenges while delivering the consistency consumers expect.

Whether you’re focused on improving portion control, reducing giveaway, increasing throughput, or maintaining product integrity, our forming solutions are built to help your operation perform at its best.

Our beef forming machines, including the TM Series, are equipped with advanced features to enhance your production process. These machines utilize our proprietary Soft-Choice® Fill technology, which creates numerous vertical columns of ground beef by forcing the product through a pattern of vertical holes in the fill plate. This precise fill timing coupled with shear plate cycling ensures consistent and high-quality beef products.
