Meyn - 2010 MEYN Final inspection

• Used in poultry processing lines for post-evisceration quality control.
• Ensures carcasses meet hygiene and quality standards before further processing.
• Identifies and removes birds with visible defects or contamination.
• Integral for maintaining product integrity in high-volume slaughterhouses.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 6,000 to 13,500 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 a modest power consumption for controls and vacuum systems.

Construction material

Primarily constructed from stainless steel and food-grade plastics to meet stringent hygiene standards and ensure durability in wet processing environments.

Operating principle

Utilises a combination of mechanical positioning and vacuum technology to present each bird for inspection, often with automated detection capabilities.

Weight range

Commonly designed to handle a wide range of bird weights within a single machine setting, reducing the need for frequent adjustments.

Maintenance

Known for sturdy construction and design features aimed at low maintenance costs, with easily accessible components for cleaning and servicing.

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.
