Foodmate Chicken cut up line

• Processing whole chickens into various cuts for retail or further processing.
• High-volume production of chicken portions such as wings, drumsticks, thighs, and breasts.
• Integration into larger poultry processing lines for automated breakdown.
• Use in facilities requiring consistent and precise chicken portioning.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 4,000 to 8,000 birds per hour, depending on configuration and bird size.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Footprint

A complete cut-up line can require a significant operational footprint, often spanning several metres in length and width, depending on the number of modules.

Materials of construction

Components are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel to ensure hygiene and durability in a wet processing environment.

Water consumption

Cleaning and operation will involve significant water usage, which is typical for poultry processing equipment.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning, blade sharpening/replacement, and lubrication of moving parts are essential for optimal performance and longevity.
