Product Overview

The Automatic Duck Wax Cooling Pool is an essential component in modern waterfowl processing lines, designed to cool and solidify the wax coating after the duck or goose waxing process.

Unlike chickens, ducks and geese contain a large number of fine feathers and down that are difficult to remove completely through conventional plucking equipment. Therefore, many commercial duck processing plants use wax dipping technology to capture remaining feathers.

After the carcass passes through the wax dipping section, it enters the wax cooling pool. The cold water rapidly reduces the temperature of the wax layer, causing the wax to become solid and firmly attached to the remaining fine feathers.

After cooling, the carcass enters the dewaxing machine where the hardened wax layer is removed.

Huatao wax cooling pool is designed with:

  • Food grade stainless steel construction

  • Stable cooling performance

  • Continuous conveyor operation

  • Easy cleaning and maintenance

The equipment is widely used in:

  • Duck slaughterhouses

  • Goose processing plants

  • Waterfowl export processing factories

A properly controlled wax cooling process improves feather removal efficiency and final carcass appearance.

Working Principle

The duck carcasses coated with liquid wax enter the cooling pool through the overhead conveyor system.

Inside the cooling tank:

  • Cold water continuously contacts the wax-coated carcass surface.

  • Heat is transferred from the wax layer to the cooling medium.

  • The wax gradually changes from liquid state into a hard solid layer.

  • The hardened wax captures remaining fine feathers.

  • The carcasses move to the dewaxing machine for wax peeling.

The cooling temperature and residence time can be adjusted according to:

  • Duck size

  • Wax thickness

  • Conveyor speed

  • Production capacity

Application

The automatic duck wax cooling pool is mainly used in duck and goose slaughterhouses where wax dipping technology is applied.

During waterfowl processing, fine feathers around the skin are difficult to remove completely after scalding and mechanical plucking.

The waxing process covers remaining feathers with a wax layer. The cooling pool solidifies this wax coating, allowing the following dewaxing machine to remove wax and feathers together.

Typical applications include:

  • Duck meat processing plants

  • Goose slaughterhouses

  • Frozen duck export factories

  • Integrated waterfowl processing lines

The wax cooling stage directly affects the efficiency of the following dewaxing process and the appearance quality of finished products.

Application Case

Case 1: 5000 BPH Duck Processing Plant

A duck processing company producing frozen duck products required an automatic wax cooling system to improve feather removal quality.

Huatao supplied:

  • Wax cooling pool

  • Cooling circulation system

  • Conveyor connection design

After installation:

  • Wax solidification became more stable 

  • Dewaxing efficiency improved 

  • Product appearance became more consistent 

Case 2: Waterfowl Processing Line Upgrade

A customer upgraded an existing semi-automatic duck processing line.

The factory required:

  • Higher hygiene standards

  • Stable wax temperature control

  • Lower manual operation

Huatao customized the cooling pool according to:

  • Factory layout

  • Conveyor height

  • Production capacity

Advantages

  • Improves Dewaxing Efficiency
    Uniform wax solidification improves the following wax removal process.

  • Better Product Appearance
    Effective cooling helps remove fine feathers and wax residues.

  • Food Grade Construction
    SUS304 stainless steel meets poultry processing hygiene requirements.

  • Energy Efficient Cooling
    Optimized water circulation reduces cooling water consumption.

  • Easy Integration
    Compatible with automatic duck and goose processing lines.
