Description
In 1946, former blacksmith, Ray Townsend, introduced the first Pork Skinner, Townsend Model 27. The rest, as they say, is history.Townsend followed that original invention with fifty-nine years of innovation and reliability. Next came the first pork belly skinner, then the first conveyorized skinner, first automatic trimmer with light sensor technology, first low-pressure injector, first automatic sausage linker and first continuous casing system.Then in 2001, Townsend Engineering Company purchased Protecon-Langen. The marriage of their respective coextrusion technologies created the QX System Quality Coextrusion and tremendous opportunities for sausage processors.
