Sausage Tying Machine

The Sausage Tying Machine is an industrial sausage linking machine designed to tie filled sausage casings with string and separate them into individual portions. It provides a dedicated alternative to twisting or clipping for sausage products that require string-tied links.

Sausage Tying Machine for Commercial Sausage Production

The Sausage Tying Machine is suitable for natural casings, including pig and sheep casings, as well as artificial casings such as collagen and plastic casings. It can be used with a range of filled sausage products that require string tying and portion separation.


During operation, the filled casing is guided into the tying area, where string is applied around the casing at the required tying position. The tying mechanism secures and separates each sausage section before the finished portions move to the next processing stage.

Key Advantages of the Sausage Tying Machine

Single and double-channel configurations for different sausage production capacities

Single- or Double-Channel Options

Single-channel and double-channel models are available to support different throughput requirements and production setups, providing flexible capacity options for commercial sausage processing.

Adjustable Tying Speed & Portion Length

Tying speed and portion length can be adjusted to match different production requirements, while the optimized tying mechanism helps reduce casing damage and material waste.

Sausage Tying Applications

The applications below highlight common sausage products and portioning formats that benefit from string tying. Machine selection can be matched to different product styles, portion lengths, and finished-product requirements.

String tying for Chinese-style red and garlic sausage products

Traditional String-Tied Sausages

Suitable for Chinese-style sausages, red sausages, garlic sausages, and similar products where string tying is used to define individual portions and create the desired finished appearance.

Fixed-length sausage portions separated by consistent string ties

Fixed-Length Sausage Portions

Designed for sausage products that require tying at defined intervals to achieve consistent portion lengths based on the required product specification.

Continuous linked sausage chain divided into individual tied portions

Linked Sausage Chains

Suitable for filled casings formed into a continuous series of linked sausages, with string ties separating individual portions while maintaining the connected format.

Specialty Casing-Filled Products

Suitable for starch sausages and other specialty casing-filled products that require string tying to meet specific portion length, shape, or finished-product requirements.

FAQ About Sausage Tying Machine

What is the difference between a sausage tying machine and a sausage twisting machine?

A sausage tying machine uses string to separate filled sausage casing into individual portions at set intervals. A twisting machine forms links by twisting the casing between portions. The appropriate method depends on the casing type, required portion format, and finished product.

What is the difference between sausage tying and sausage clipping?

Sausage tying uses string to secure or separate individual portions, while sausage clipping uses clips to close or divide filled casing sections. The preferred method depends on the required closure style, product format, and finished appearance.

Does the Sausage Tying Machine also fill sausages?

No. The machine performs tying and portioning after the casing has already been filled. Sausage filling is handled by separate upstream equipment.

When should I choose a single-channel or double-channel Sausage Tying Machine?

The choice mainly depends on required throughput, line layout, and the capacity of the upstream filling equipment. Single-channel models are suitable for standard production requirements, while double-channel models are better suited to applications requiring higher tying capacity.

Can the Sausage Tying Machine be integrated into a sausage processing line?

Yes. The machine can be installed after sausage filling equipment as a dedicated tying and portioning stage. Tied products can then move to subsequent processes such as cooking, smoking, cooling, or packaging, depending on the production flow.
