Hydraulic Hoof Shear Machine for Sheep & Goat Slaughterhouses

Product Overview

Compared with manual hoof cutting tools, the hydraulic shear provides:

• Faster cutting speed

• Higher working efficiency

• More stable cutting performance

• Reduced operator fatigue

The equipment is suitable for:

• Sheep slaughterhouses

• Goat abattoirs

• Halal meat processing plants

• Livestock processing factories

The HT HT‑S255 model is designed mainly for cutting sheep/goat hooves and uses hydraulic working principles with a 4kW hydraulic power system.

Working Principle

The hydraulic hoof shear operates through a hydraulic power system.

The working process:

• The operator positions the sheep or goat hoof inside the shear opening.

• The hydraulic station generates high‑pressure hydraulic force.

• The hydraulic cylinder drives the cutting blades to close.

• The hoof is quickly cut through.

• The blade returns to the original position for the next operation.

The hydraulic system provides strong and stable cutting force, ensuring efficient hoof removal during continuous slaughter operations.
