Living Cattle Fixed Killing Box for Safe and Efficient Cattle Slaughtering

Product Overview

The machine adopts a pneumatic control system with a robust galvanized steel structure, including a cattle entrance pushing device, head clamping mechanism, side lifting door, bottom overturn plate, and safety protection components.

The design is suitable for conventional cattle slaughterhouses and can also be integrated into halal cattle processing facilities according to customer requirements.

The fixed cattle killing box is commonly installed at the beginning of the cattle slaughter process, before lifting, bleeding, and overhead carcass transportation systems.

Working Principle

The living cattle enters the fixed killing box through the entrance gate. After the animal reaches the designated position, the pneumatic control system activates the restraint devices.

The head clamping mechanism securely fixes the cattle head, while the side door and bottom plate provide additional positioning support. The operator can then complete the slaughter operation under a stable and controlled condition.

After the slaughter process, the bottom overturn mechanism or lifting system releases the carcass for transfer to the next processing stage, such as bleeding conveyor or overhead rail transportation.

The pneumatic drive system provides fast response, simple operation, and reliable performance for continuous slaughterhouse applications.

Main Features

1. Stable Cattle Restraining Structure

The equipment uses a heavy‑duty frame design to keep cattle safely positioned during slaughter.

Main components include:

• Head clamping device

• Side protection door

• Bottom overturn plate

• Entrance pushing system

2. Pneumatic Control System

The pneumatic system provides:

• Fast operation response

• Easy maintenance

• Stable working performance

• Low maintenance cost

3. Heavy‑Duty Anti‑Corrosion Construction

The main structure is manufactured with:

• Hot galvanized steel frame

• Polyamide protection plates

• Stainless steel optional components

4. Improved Operator Safety

The fixed killing box helps reduce uncontrolled cattle movement and creates a safer working environment for slaughterhouse operators.

5. Flexible Installation

The equipment can be installed independently or connected with:

• Cattle conveying systems

• Hoisting equipment

• Bleeding conveyors

• Overhead rail systems

Technical Specifications

Specifications can be customized according to slaughterhouse capacity and customer requirements.

Application

The living cattle fixed killing box is mainly used in:

• Beef slaughterhouses

• Cattle abattoirs

• Halal meat processing plants

• Livestock slaughter centers

• Meat export processing facilities

It is suitable for:

• Beef cattle

• Dairy cattle

• Bulls

• Large livestock

The equipment is normally installed before bleeding systems and carcass lifting equipment, serving as the first important handling unit in cattle slaughter processing.

Application Case

Cattle Abattoir Project in Africa

A beef processing plant required a reliable cattle restraint solution to improve slaughter efficiency and reduce manual handling risks.

The customer selected the pneumatic cattle fixed killing box because of its simple operation, durable structure, and compatibility with existing slaughterhouse equipment.

After installation, the equipment helped the plant achieve more stable cattle positioning and smoother connection with the following bleeding and carcass transportation processes.

Typical configuration:

• Living cattle fixed killing box

• Vertical carcass lifting machine

• Bleeding conveyor

• Overhead rail system
