Product Details
I. Product Overview
The Professional Poultry Wishbone & Wing Halving Machine is a highly specialized piece of meat-cutting equipment engineered to split chicken wishbones (poultry forks) and chicken wings cleanly and evenly down the center. It is widely used in poultry deep-processing plants, wholesale chicken markets, fast-food preparation centers, and commercial kitchens.
Fully constructed from premium food-grade SUS304 stainless steel, this 40kg machine features a dedicated safety feeding guide that stabilizes small poultry parts like wings and wishbones during operation. Driven by a powerful 1.1 kW motor, it ensures clean cuts without crushing bones or tearing meat, vastly improving production efficiency and final product presentation.
II. Structural Features & Working Principle
1. Key Structural Features
- Wing & Wishbone Guide Trough: Features a custom-shaped feeding track designed to fit, align, and stabilize chicken wings and wishbones for a perfectly centered cut.
- Premium Alloy Circular Blade: Equipped with an ultra-sharp, wear-resistant alloy circular blade that effortlessly slices through cartilage and bone while maintaining clean product edges.
- Hygienic SUS304 Stainless Steel Body: Designed with a smooth, seamless stainless steel structure that resists corrosion and rust, preventing food residue accumulation and allowing quick washdowns.
- Enclosed High-Performance Motor: Powered by a robust, copper-core 1.1 kW motor with water-resistant sealing, ensuring reliable, continuous daily operations in moist meat-processing environments.
2. Working Principle
Upon starting the machine, the motor drives the circular alloy blade to rotate at high speeds. The operator places the poultry wishbones or wings onto the specialized feeding guide rail and slides them gently toward the cutting area. As the product passes through, the high-speed blade splits it cleanly down the middle into two uniform halves.

IV. Installation & Commissioning
1. General Installation Procedure
- Place the cutting machine on a flat, solid, and non-slip workbench to eliminate vibration during operation.
- Ensure the onsite power supply matches the rated voltage (220V single-phase or 380V three-phase).
- Connect the power cable securely. For 380V three-phase configurations, verify that the blade rotates in the correct direction (indicated by the arrow on the safety guard).
- Idle the machine (run empty) for 1–2 minutes to inspect for any abnormal noises or excessive vibrations.
2. After-Sales Service
Installation, commissioning, and regular technical maintenance can be conducted by our company’s professional engineering team or under remote guidance from our customer support center.
V. Safe Use & Precautions
1. Before Use
- Read the operator manual thoroughly to understand the basic structure and safety rules.
- Check if the blade fastening nut is securely tightened.
- Ensure the protective guard is securely in place and has no structural damage.
2. Operational Safety
- Strictly Prohibited: Do not push chicken wings or wishbones towards the blade with bare hands when close to the cutting area. Always maintain a safe distance and slide the product smoothly along the guided trough.
- Do not wear loose clothing, necklaces, or loose gloves that could get caught in the high-speed rotating blade. Long hair must be tied back.
- Always disconnect the power plug before performing cleaning, adjustments, blade replacement, or maintenance.
3. Safety Pictograms
| Symbol / Hazard | Safety Meaning & Precautionary Measures |
|---|---|
| Danger | High-speed rotating blade hazard. Keep hands and fingers strictly away from the blade. |
| Danger | Electrical shock hazard. Disconnect the main power source before opening the electrical enclosure. |
| Warning | Sharp blade edge. Handle with extreme care during maintenance, blade cleaning, and replacement. |
| Warning | Do not operate the machine with safety guards or safety shields removed. |
VI. Daily Maintenance
| Frequency | Maintenance Task Description |
|---|---|
| Every Shift / Daily | Clean meat residue and fat off the blade, feeding trough, and stainless steel housing with warm soapy water and sanitize. Dry thoroughly. |
| Every Week | Inspect the tightness of the blade fastening nut and the motor mounting bolts. Apply food-grade lubricant to moving guide components. |
| Every Month | Inspect the circular blade for dullness or micro-chips; sharpen or replace if necessary. Check the integrity of water seals. |
| Every 6 Months | Check electrical wiring insulation and ensure the main ground wire is connected securely. Inspect motor bearings. |
VII. Simple Troubleshooting
| Problem Encountered | Possible Root Cause | Recommended Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Motor does not start when switched on | 1. Power plug is loose. 2. Internal wiring or capacitor is damaged. 3. Emergency stop button is engaged. |
1. Check and secure the power connection. 2. Reset the emergency stop switch. 3. Contact professional technicians to inspect wiring. |
| Poor or uneven cutting effect / Jagged edges | 1. Blade is dull or chipped. 2. Blade is installed in the reverse direction. |
1. Sharpen or replace the circular cutting blade. 2. Re-install the blade in the correct rotation direction. |
| Heavy machine vibration or abnormal noise | 1. Blade fastening nut is loose. 2. Blade is deformed or unbalanced. 3. Motor bearings are worn out. |
1. Stop the machine immediately and tighten the blade nut. 2. Replace the deformed or unbalanced blade. 3. Replace the motor bearings. |
| Motor overheats during operation | 1. Overloading (feeding meat too quickly). 2. Input voltage is unstable or too low. |
1. Reduce the feeding speed; allow the motor to cool down. 2. Inspect and stabilize the input power voltage. |
