This Heavy-Duty Overhead Blood Draining Conveyor is an essential part of modern automated beef slaughtering lines. Specially designed for the bloodletting stage immediately after stunning, it ensures safe, sanitary, and efficient handling of cattle carcasses. The unit is robust, durable, and built for daily industrial use in demanding meat processing environments.
Manufactured with hot-dip galvanized structural components, this conveyor system is corrosion-resistant and can withstand constant exposure to blood, water, and chemical disinfectants. The total conveyor length is 18.2 meters, fitted with 10 workstations for continuous processing. It is an optimal choice for medium-capacity slaughterhouses processing 50 to 100 head of cattle per hour.
Main Structural Features:
• Material: All structural elements are hot-dip galvanized, ensuring long-term protection against rust and wear.
• Chain: Uses a double hinged chain system to reduce mechanical stress and prolong service life.
• Track Design: Built on a Φ60 x 4.5mm round tube rail, suspended below double U-beam channels using industrial-grade hangers.
• Bearings and Rollers: Nylon rollers with ball bearings allow for quiet, low-resistance, and smooth chain movement.
• Connection System: HALFEN channel fittings connect the U-beams and the conveyor to overhead structural steel, making assembly modular and maintenance simple.
Drive and Control System:
• Power Source: 380V, 50Hz, 1.5KW industrial motor
• Drive System: Includes a drive and tensioning mechanism for consistent chain speed
• Steering Unit: Allows direction changes in complex layouts
• Pneumatic Infeed: Ensures gentle and accurate entry of carcasses into the line
• Pneumatic Releasing Device: For automatic shackle unloading after the bloodletting stage
Full Set Includes:
• 1 pneumatic infeed device
• 1 drive and tension set
• 1 steering mechanism
• 1 complete conveyor chain
• 1 auto chain lubrication unit
• 10m tubular track
• 1 pneumatic releasing device
• 2 manual stoppers
• 20 galvanized shackles
Hygiene and Safety Standards:
This conveyor system is compliant with international food safety standards (e.g., HACCP, ISO 22000), as it supports clean processing conditions by keeping the carcass suspended throughout the bleeding phase. The auto-lubrication system reduces manual contact and improves long-term hygiene. Materials used are designed to withstand frequent sterilization and cleaning with high-pressure washers.
Installation & Customization:
Modular in design, the conveyor can be easily integrated into both new and existing slaughter lines. The number of workstations and rail length can be customized based on daily processing volumes. Additional automation such as programmable logic controllers (PLC) or data integration modules are available upon request.
Target Users:
• Medium- and large-scale beef slaughterhouses
• Halal slaughter facilities
• Government-approved meat processing plants
• Export-oriented meat processors requiring EU/US standard compliance
