Tail quill puller for poultry processing
Optimize your poultry processing line with a flexible solution designed to efficiently remove tail quill feathers, allowing for lower scalding temperatures and reducing maintenance downtime.
Removes Tail Quill Feathers from Poultry
The SC-Series Tail Quill Puller by Prime Equipment Group is a robust solution for poultry processing facilities aiming to streamline the removal of tail quill feathers from chickens and turkeys. What sets this equipment apart is its manual hydraulic system that allows for precise height and angle adjustments, offering maximum flexibility tailored to individual processing needs. Ideal for producing end-products like chicken wings and turkey breast, it performs effectively in continuous operations typical in poultry and meat processing industries.
Engineered to support integration into existing production lines, the SC-Series enables a lower scalding temperature by effectively managing quill pulling ahead of the scalder. The design prioritizes durability and low maintenance, featuring adjustable roller tension via heavy-duty springs and a simple layout that minimizes parts replacement costs. With motors specifically designed for both chicken (1.5 hp) and turkey (4 hp) processing, the unit supports variable production rates aligned with line speed, ensuring seamless adaptation to varying throughput demands.
