Turkey leg processor for mechanized poultry processing
In large-scale poultry operations, the efficiency of mechanically removing turkey legs greatly impacts overall productivity. Manual methods often lead to inconsistency and elevated labor costs. Finding a reliable system that offers both high-speed processing and uniform quality is essential.
Mechanically removes and splits turkey legs
The Prime LP-1T Turkey Leg Processor by JBT is designed for the mechanical removal of turkey legs, including the thigh and drumstick. This system efficiently cuts the ligament in the hip joint and pulls the leg from the back, removing the back and the oyster with the thigh. The auger then conveys the leg into a splitting module which separates the thigh from the drumstick. This processor maintains high throughput, with one operator able to process 30-38 toms or 30-32 hens per minute. Its reliability and low-maintenance design contribute to a superior A-grade yield and product quality. It is ideal for industrial poultry processing setups requiring increased efficiency and reduced labor costs.
