The plumage stripping machine will help not only farmers The plumage stripping machine is an indispensable unit in the poultry meat industry and on farms. It is distinguished by its robust design and durability. The operation of the apparatus is based on the use of a centrifuge, on the inner surface of which special rubber nozzles in the form of fingers are fixed. With the help of these nozzles, plucking of poultry carcasses is carried out. This technology is the most gentle, as it avoids skin damage on the carcasses. The working "fingers" of the device are resistant to wear: one such attachment is designed for 1000 carcasses. The attachments are changed manually. Before loading the carcasses into the plumage removal machine, they should be prepared in advance: leave in warm water so that the feathers absorb the maximum amount of moisture. Then the carcasses should be additionally soaked in hot water. The processed carcasses are placed in the machine in an admissible amount - based on their weight and volume, they can be from 2 to 6, after which the operation of the device starts. In the process of removing the plumage, hot water must be poured into the machine, which, flowing down, will wash off the feathers from the carcasses. The machine for plucking poultry is most widespread in the domestic market Octopus ... There are other similar units, including those of foreign production. Specifications: Dimensions: 750 x 800 x 1000 mm Drum inner diameter: 500 mm Weight: 50 kg Electric motor: 1.10 kW, 220V, 1450 rpm Productivity: 1 carcass / 20 sec Instructions: 1) Check the machine after opening the box. Retighten any bolts that may have come loose during transportation. Inspect the undercarriage and drive belt, if necessary make the necessary adjustments. 2) Install the ground located on the side, then check the operation of the machine. 3) Place the birds (after slaughter) in water (30 ° C) before turning on the feathering machine. Make sure the entire plumage of the bird is well saturated with water. To improve the plucking process, you can slightly add salt to the water. 4) Place the birds in hot water (70-75 ° C), and slightly ruffle the feathers. The temperature should not exceed the specified limits. 5) Once you have done all the previous steps, you can put the treated bird in the feathering machine. The maximum number of birds per load should not exceed 5 chickens. The processing time for chickens is 20-30 sec. 6) After turning on the feather removal machine, the remaining water begins to flow down the chute. Water the birds (preferably hot) while the machine is running. Feathers together with dirty water will flow out. Caution! 1) For your safety, a circuit breaker and grounding must be installed. 2) The socket should be slightly higher and at a distance from the feathering machine. 3) Do not touch the outlet with wet hands.
