Based on the food processing production line, the embodiment further provides a food processing production method, which includes the following steps:

s1, the mechanical arm 6 drives the molding assembly 5 to move until the opening of the molding cavity is connected with the material injection plate 4, and meanwhile, the molding cavity is communicated with the material injection hole 41;

s2, the mechanical arm 6 drives the molding assembly 5 to slide along the material injection plate 4 until the edge pressing 5111 is pressed tightly by the pressing wheel 9, and material injection is started;

s3, after the material injection is completed, the mechanical arm 6 drives the molding assembly 5 to slide along the material injection plate 4, when the molding assembly slides to the edge pressing 5111 to be separated from the pressing wheel 9, the mechanical arm 6 drives the molding assembly 5 to be separated from the material injection plate 4 obliquely and upwards, and the molding assembly moves to the position of the bearing object 2;

s4, demolding: the mold frame 511 slides upward relative to the press cover 512, and the ejector 513 ejects downward, so that the molded product is released from the mold.

In step S1, the proper arrangement of the injection plate 4 and the forming mold 51 in the forming assembly 5 allows the forming mold 51 to fall down to contact only the working plane of the injection plate 4, and while contacting, the forming cavity communicates with the injection hole 41, i.e. the injection hole 41 is located in the opening range of the forming mold 51, so as to prevent the material from contaminating the injection plate 4 and the forming mold 51, for the following reasons: the materials enter the molding cavity from the material injection hole 41, after the last molding, the shrimp slip materials are released from the excess pressure in the pipeline, the shrimp slip materials have high viscosity, a great pushing force is needed in the feeding process, after the feeding is completed, the molding cavity is moved away, the excess pressure is released from the pipeline, and the shrimp slip materials in the material injection hole 41 can form a round-top drum bag shape, in this case, if the position where the molding mold 51 is attached to the material injection plate 4 after descending is located behind the material injection hole 41, when the molding mold 51 moves forward under the driving of the mechanical arm 6, the materials bulged out of the material injection hole 41 are inevitably scraped away by the front side surface of the molding mold 51, which wastes the materials and pollutes the molding mold 51, while the molding mold 51 is arranged to be attached to the material injection plate 4, the material injection hole 41 is located in the opening range of the molding mold 51, and the materials protruded out of the material injection hole 41 can be used in the next molding, there is neither waste of material nor contamination of the outer surface of the molding die 51.

In step S4, the first driving member 535 drives the mold frame to slide upward relative to the pressing cover 512, so that the side surface of the formed object is separated from the forming mold 51, and then the formed object is ejected out of the ejecting member 513 rapidly and downward twice, so that the formed object can be separated from the ejecting member 513, and complete demolding is achieved.

As a preferable solution of the present embodiment, during the execution of step S3, the follow-up cleaning assembly 81 may spray a high-pressure air flow toward the forming mold 51 to clean the outer surface of the forming mold 51; after step S4, the mechanical arm 6 may drive the forming mold 51 to retreat to the fixed cleaning assembly 82 and extend into the flushing tank 821 from the flushing port, and the flushing valve island 823 is first connected to the gas source and the liquid source at the same time to form a high-pressure jet flow to flush the inner surface of the forming mold 51; then, the water valve 825 is closed again to cut off the liquid source, and the shower head 8231 blows air toward the inner surface of the molding die 51 under high pressure to dry the inner surface of the molding die 51. The cleaned molding die 51 is driven by the robot arm 6 to retreat to the position of the injection plate 4, and then falls to be connected with the injection plate 4 for the next molding process.

The food processing production line and the processing production method of the embodiment can be suitable for molding and processing of materials such as shrimp slips, fish slips, beef slips and the like, the whole molding and processing process is fully automatic, the average processing speed can reach 4 s/part in actual production, the processing speed is high, and the actual production requirements can be met in a cutting and practical manner; the gram number error is small, if the standard gram number of the shrimp slips is 75 grams, the gram number of the processed finished product is within the range of 75 +/-1 grams by adopting the food processing production line and the processing production method, and the gram number error range is within 1 gram.
