Product Details

I. Product Overview

The Poultry Breast Opener and Halving Machine (Model 11) is a commercial-grade food processing machine engineered specifically for high-speed breast-opening (venting) and carcass-halving of poultry, including chicken, duck, goose, and quail.

Unlike conventional cutters, this machine features a flat guide plate feed system combined with a fully enclosed blade guard, enabling operators to slide poultry carcasses through horizontally with maximum precision and control. Built entirely of premium food-grade stainless steel, it provides a stable, hygienic, and extremely safe solution for busy slaughterhouses, central kitchens, wholesale meat distributors, and commercial food manufacturing plants.

II. Structural Features & Working Principle

1. Key Structural Features

Horizontal Guide Plate System: Designed with an ultra-smooth flat guide surface that stabilizes carcasses and facilitates effortless sliding for balanced, centered cuts.
Tungsten Alloy Circular Blade: Equipped with an oversized, wear-resistant circular alloy blade that slices through breasts, cartilage, and bone effortlessly without tearing muscle fibers.
Hygienic and Washdown-Safe: Fully constructed of high-grade food stainless steel with seamless joints to minimize meat residue buildup and support quick chemical washdowns.
Fully Enclosed Motor & Safety Cover: Powered by a heavy-duty 1.1kW motor with a fully enclosed stainless steel protective housing to shield operators from debris and prevent water damage during cleaning.

2. Working Principle

When turned on, the 1.1kW motor drives the alloy circular blade to spin at high speeds. The operator places the poultry carcass flat on the horizontal guide surface, aligning the center of the breastbone with the blade guide slot. By sliding the poultry carcass forward, the high-speed rotating blade instantly and smoothly splits the carcass open or halves it cleanly in a single pass, ensuring uniform cuts with zero bone splinters.

IV. Installation & Commissioning

1. General Installation Procedure

Install the machine on a flat, highly stable, and dry platform to minimize high-speed rotational vibrations.
Confirm that the input voltage matches the machine’s specification tag (either 220V or 380V).
Connect the power cable securely. For 380V systems, verify the correct motor rotation direction as labeled on the housing.
Run the machine empty (idle) for 2 minutes to inspect for standard smooth operation and rule out structural noises.

2. After-Sales Service

Installation, technical commissioning, and localized replacement part services can be handled by our designated engineering team or via structured remote video support.

V. Safe Use & Precautions

1. Before Use

Thoroughly read the operation manual and ensure only trained operators control the machine.
Inspect the circular blade for alignment and confirm the center locking nut is fully tightened.
Verify the safety shield is properly fixed and covers the high-speed cutting path.

2. Operational Safety

Strictly Prohibited: Do not feed poultry into the blade path with bare hands. Always utilize standard hand safety tools or keep hands outside the flat guide sliding zone.
Avoid wearing hanging jewelry, loose ties, wide-sleeved shirts, or loose-fitting gloves that could snag on the rotating blade.
Always isolate the electrical power plug from the wall outlet before starting any maintenance or cleaning procedures.

3. Safety Pictograms

Symbol / Hazard	Safety Meaning & Precautionary Measures
Danger	Rotating blade risk. Never place fingers or hands within the cutting shield zone.
Danger	High-voltage risk. Ensure proper earthing and disconnect power before opening control components.
Warning	Extremely sharp blade. Wear cut-resistant protective gloves during blade changeovers.
Warning	Do not operate or clean the equipment without the steel safety cover locked in place.

4. Daily Maintenance

Frequency	Maintenance Task Description
Every Shift	Hose down the guide plate and blade enclosure with food-grade sanitising solution to eliminate residues.
Every Week	Verify stability of the motor mounts and inspect the wear level of the circular blade edge.
Every Month	Sharpen or replace the cutting blade if jagged edges, deep micro-cracks, or significant dullness are noted.
Every 3 Months	Inspect seal degradation around the motor axis and check general electrical connection integrity.

VI. Simple Troubleshooting

Problem Encountered	Possible Root Cause	Recommended Solution
Motor does not start when switched on	1. Power cord loose or damaged. 2. Internal capacitor failure.	1. Inspect power plug and replace cord if faulty. 2. Have an electrician test and replace the capacitor.
Poultry meat is tearing or crushed during cut	1. Blade dullness. 2. Blade mounted backward.	1. Sharpen or replace the circular blade. 2. Re-mount blade ensuring it turns toward the guide.
Excessive structural vibration during operation	1. Loose central blade lock-nut. 2. Unstable placement surface.	1. Stop machine immediately and tighten the lock-nut. 2. Relocate machine onto a rigid, non-slip workbench.
Motor runs hot or halts frequently	1. Feeding too rapidly (overload). 2. Supply voltage drop.	1. Guide poultry slowly and consistently. 2. Verify supply voltage matches machine specification.
