Poultry Centrifugal Dewatering Machine

Product Overview

This machine uses a rotary drum centrifugal dewatering system. Driven by a reducer and chain transmission mechanism, the stainless steel rotating drum continuously moves while poultry carcasses roll forward inside the drum. Under centrifugal force generated during rotation, water is separated from the carcass surface and discharged through the drum openings.

The equipment is manufactured entirely from food‑grade SUS304 stainless steel, providing excellent corrosion resistance, hygienic performance and long‑term operation in poultry processing environments.

With continuous operation, adjustable drum speed and simple maintenance design, this poultry dewatering machine is widely used in automatic chicken, duck and turkey slaughtering processing lines.

Working Principle

After the poultry carcasses leave the pre‑chiller, they enter the rotating drum of the dewatering machine.

The drum is driven by a gear reducer and chain transmission system, causing the drum to rotate continuously.

As the carcasses enter the drum, they rotate and move forward together with the drum. During this process, centrifugal force generated by high‑speed rotation separates the water attached to the carcass surface.

The separated water flows out through the drum holes and is collected through the drainage system.

By adjusting the drum rotation speed through a frequency converter, the dewatering performance can be controlled according to different production capacities and poultry processing requirements.

Technical Specifications‑Poultry Centrifugal Dewatering Machine

Note: Technical specifications can be customized according to production capacity and poultry processing line layout.

Application

The poultry centrifugal dewatering machine is mainly installed after the water pre‑chilling process in poultry slaughterhouses.

Typical production flow:
Slaughtering → Evisceration → Water Pre‑Chilling → Poultry Dewatering Machine → Cutting → Grading → Packaging

It is suitable for:

• Chicken processing plants

• Duck slaughterhouses

• Turkey processing factories

• Frozen poultry production lines

• Large automatic poultry slaughtering facilities

The machine is especially suitable for plants using water chilling systems where efficient removal of surface moisture is required before further processing.
