The SIMPLOT complete overhead poultry processing line provides the conveying backbone for coordinated poultry processing. Depending on the approved project scope, the line can connect stunning, bleeding, scalding, plucking, evisceration, washing, chilling and downstream handling stages.
Track direction, conveyor length, shackle pitch, drive arrangement and process dwell times are engineered around the poultry species, average live weight, target birds per hour and the available building. Frequency-controlled drives allow the operating speed to be commissioned with the connected equipment.
Planning capacities range from approximately 500 to 10,000 birds per hour. Final output, equipment quantity, utilities and material scope are confirmed in the project-specific technical proposal. Custom layouts are available.
