Description

In the early days of fast food, restaurants like McDonald's and Burger King made their burgers onsite, and they relied on Harry Holly's patty-molding machine to get the job done. The patty press helped standardize the fast food hamburger by ensuring that patty sizes and weights were consistent. The fast food giants eventually changed their supply chains and stopped using the patty press, but the meat-processing equipment company that Harry Holly founded in 1937 is still carrying on the inventor's legacy.
