Hock plucker/cleaner

Hock Plucker has been developed to remove the feathers of hocks of birds in a poultry processing plant. The machine is designed to function
automatically in killing/defeathering line, in which the birds are scalded by means of a warm water scalding system. The birds are transported by an
overhead conveyor system.
The overhead conveyor transports the birds hanging by their feet through the hock plucker. The hock plucker removes the feathers using rotating discs.

2 adjustable cabinets
• Made of stainless steel and other noncorrosion materials
• Stainless steel motors driving the brushes
• quick opening for easy cleaning

Chain and shackle washer

The Chain and shackle washer specially designed to comply with drastically heightened hygiene requirements. Made of stainless steel and synthetics, the shackle washer is mounted on the conveyor system. Shackles, trolleys and chain can, with no difficulty, be completely cleaned simultaneously.

Each of two long nylon brushes is driven by a separate motor and can be adjusted individually. Cleaning water is supplied separately to each brush and this increases cleaning efficiency. If required, a disinfection metering device can be connected to the water inlet.

The brushes are covered externally with a stainless steel case to effectively prevent water splashing.

Driven hock/feet unloader

• Controlled unloading of hocks and/or feet.
• Hocks and/or feet are collected at one central point.
• All hocks and/or feet can be unloaded within one setting.

Bird unloader

Operations:

The carcass unloader is made of stainless, acid-resistant materials. It is suspended from the supporting structure of the overhead conveyor. The main parts of the unloader include: a frame, a wheel with carriers, guides and releasing rods. Carcasses transported in shackles of the overhead conveyor (after their feet are cut) are guided between the carriers and pressure belts, where they are automatically pushed off the shackles by rotation of the carrier wheel. The unloader is driven by the chain conveyor over a 180° curve.

Hock/Feet unloader

Feet / hock Unloader is a consistent and reliable means of unloading feet from the shackles on the picking line.
