Turkey heart processing system

Streamline your turkey heart processing with precision trimming and efficient membrane removal, enhancing yield and product consistency in high-speed operations.

Trims and Processes Turkey Hearts Efficiently

The THP-1 Turkey Heart Processor from Prime Equipment Group is a specialized machine engineered for precise trimming and processing of turkey hearts. This system efficiently removes the aorta and arterial materials, enhancing your production line by delivering clean, atrium-free heart cuts. Operating at speeds exceeding 40 pieces per minute, the THP-1 integrates seamlessly into high-speed, continuous processing lines, minimizing manual labor while improving yield consistency. It features removable product cavities for streamlined loading and quick sanitation, ideal for meat and poultry processing facilities. With robust construction, it operates with (2) 1 hp and (1) 1/2 hp motors, maintaining energy efficiency with a requirement of 480V, 3 ph, and 60 Hz. The THP-1 is a reliable choice for facilities looking to refine their evisceration operations while ensuring product quality through precise mechanical processing.
