LINCO

• Automated transfer of poultry from evisceration lines to air chilling.
• Re-hanging birds from air chilling lines to weighing or cut-up lines.
• Reducing manual labour in poultry processing plants.
• Minimising cross-contamination risks during bird transfer.
• Improving line efficiency and throughput in poultry slaughterhouses.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughputs commonly range from 6,000 to 12,000 birds per hour, depending on the specific configuration and line speed.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with appropriate motor protection.

Materials of construction

Commonly constructed from stainless steel, aluminium, and food-grade plastics/nylon for hygiene and durability in wet environments.

Line compatibility

Designed for integration with existing overhead conveyor systems, typically with 6-inch shackle pitches.

Footprint

The footprint varies, but buyers should anticipate a linear installation requiring several metres of line length for the transfer mechanism.

Maintenance

Requires regular cleaning, lubrication, and inspection of moving parts, common for automated processing equipment.

• What type of birds can this rehanger process?

  This type of rehanger is primarily designed for poultry, typically chickens, within a specified weight range. Buyers should confirm the exact bird size and weight compatibility with the seller.

• Is this unit suitable for integration into an existing processing line?

• What are the primary benefits of using an automated rehanger?

• What spare parts are typically required for this equipment?

• Does this machine require specialised operators?

Slaughtering equipment holds strong reputation for durability and consistent performance when properly maintained. Buyers typically value models from established manufacturers known for reliable construction. When purchasing used units, inspectors should prioritise equipment condition, sanitation compliance, and maintenance history. Key strengths include robust build quality, availability of spare parts, and established service support within the meat processing industry. Potential buyers should verify compliance with current food safety regulations and assess wear on critical components before commitment.
