Cattle Skin Hydraulic Puller

Product Overview

The hydraulic skin puller uses a powerful hydraulic driving system to automatically pull the cattle hide away from the carcass after pre‑skinning preparation. The machine provides stable pulling force through a stainless steel hide roller and chain mechanism, helping operators achieve faster and cleaner dehiding performance.

According to the original EME QE‑C212 design, the equipment is mainly used for pulling cattle skin from carcasses and is installed on the slaughter floor with connection to the overhead carcass conveyor system. The standard model adopts hydraulic operation, stainless steel hide roller and chain, hydraulic station, and control system.

The machine is suitable for:

• Beef slaughterhouses

• Cattle abattoirs

• Meat processing plants

• Leather raw material recovery facilities

It is normally integrated with:

• Cattle carcass conveyor system

• Fore legs fixing platform

• Automatic skinning knife

• Skin transfer trolley

to create a complete cattle hide removal process.

Working Principle

The Cattle Skin Hydraulic Puller works through hydraulic power transmission.

After the cattle carcass enters the skinning section:

• Workers perform initial hide separation at the leg and belly area.

• The loosened hide is fixed onto the stainless steel pulling chain.

• The hydraulic cylinder drives the pulling roller.

• The roller rotates and generates continuous pulling force.

• The hide is gradually separated from the carcass.

• The removed hide is collected and transferred for further processing.

The hydraulic system provides smooth and adjustable pulling force, reducing sudden tearing and improving hide quality.

Main Features

1. Hydraulic Drive System

The machine uses hydraulic power instead of manual pulling.

Advantages:

• Strong pulling force

• Reduced operator workload

2. Stainless Steel Hide Roller and Chain

The pulling components are made from corrosion‑resistant materials.

Features:

• High mechanical strength

• Good wear resistance

• Suitable for wet slaughterhouse environments

3. Improved Hide Recovery Quality

Controlled hydraulic pulling helps:

• Reduce unnecessary tearing

• Protect leather surface

• Improve hide utilization value

4. Heavy‑Duty Structure Design

The support structure can be manufactured with:

• Stainless steel

• Hot galvanized steel

Benefits:

• High load‑bearing capacity

• Long service life

• Suitable for continuous production

5. Easy Connection With Conveyor Line

The equipment can be fixed on the slaughterhouse floor and connected with the overhead rail system.

Suitable for:

• Semi‑automatic slaughter lines

• Automatic cattle processing lines

6. Hydraulic Control System

The system includes:

• Hydraulic station

• Oil cylinder

• Hydraulic soft pipes

• Low pressure control switches

Providing reliable operation and easy maintenance.

Technical Specifications

Application

The Cattle Skin Hydraulic Puller is widely used in:

• Beef slaughterhouses

• Cattle abattoirs

• Halal meat processing plants

• Industrial meat production facilities

• Leather processing supply chains

Typical processing flow:

Cattle Stunning → Bleeding → Carcass Transfer → Pre‑skinning → Hydraulic Skin Pulling → Hide Collection → Carcass Cleaning

The machine is installed in the carcass processing area after initial hide opening.

It is especially suitable for slaughterhouses that require:

• Higher processing capacity

• Better hide quality control

• Reduced dependence on skilled workers

Application Case
