Vertical Chicken Thigh Deboning Machine

Product Overview

This vertical deboning machine uses a pneumatic pressing system combined with specially designed deboning molds to separate:

• Chicken thigh bone

• Chicken upper leg bone

• Poultry leg bones

During operation, the chicken thigh is positioned into the processing mold. The pneumatic cylinder pushes the bone through the separation mechanism, while the surrounding meat remains intact.

Compared with manual deboning, the machine provides:

• Higher processing efficiency

• More stable product quality

• Reduced labor dependence

• Improved meat recovery rate

The compact vertical design requires less installation space and is suitable for:

• Poultry processing plants

• Chicken further processing factories

• Frozen food manufacturers

• Meat product suppliers

Working Principle

The operator places the chicken thigh into the customized deboning mold.

After the start button is activated, the pneumatic cylinder moves downward vertically.

The pressing rod applies controlled force to push the bone through the separation opening.

During this process:

• 1.Bone is separated from surrounding meat

• 2.Meat remains outside the bone outlet

• 3.Deboned chicken thigh meat is collected separately

The vertical movement provides stable pressure and accurate positioning, reducing meat damage during the deboning process.

Main Features

1. Vertical Deboning Structure

Application Case

Case: Chicken Further Processing Factory

A poultry processing company producing boneless chicken thigh products needed to improve production efficiency.

Before installation:

• Workers manually removed bones

• Labor cost was high

• Product consistency depended on operator skills

After introducing the vertical chicken thigh deboning machine:

• Processing speed increased

• Product quality became more stable

• Labor requirements decreased

• Meat yield improved

Advantages

• Higher Processing Efficiency
  Compared with manual deboning, the machine improves processing speed.

• Better Product Consistency
  The pneumatic pressing system provides repeatable deboning results.

• Higher Meat Recovery Rate
  Special molds reduce unnecessary meat loss.

• Lower Labor Cost
  One operator can handle continuous production.

• Compact Factory Installation
  Vertical design saves production space.

• Easy Maintenance
  Simple mechanical structure reduces downtime.
