Automatic Overhead Conveyor System for Efficient Sheep & Goat Bleeding

Product Overview

Typical applications include:

• Sheep slaughterhouses

• Goat slaughter plants

• Halal slaughter facilities

• Commercial abattoirs

• Export meat processing factories

Working Principle

After stunning or halal slaughter, the sheep or goat carcass is secured with a bleeding shackle and connected to the overhead pulley hook. The automatic conveyor chain transports each carcass along the bleeding rail at a controlled speed.

Using a frequency inverter, the conveyor speed can be adjusted to match slaughter capacity and required bleeding time. The automatic movement ensures every carcass remains suspended for sufficient drainage before entering the skinning and carcass processing sections.

Main Features

Fully Automatic Continuous Operation

The conveyor automatically transports carcasses through the bleeding section, reducing manual handling and improving workflow continuity.

High Processing Capacity

• Capacity up to 400 heads/hour

• Suitable for medium and large sheep slaughterhouses

• Continuous production operation

Multiple Rail Options

The system supports:

• Tube Rail (φ60 × 4 mm 304 Stainless Steel)

• Dual Rail (40 × 40 × 4 mm 304 Stainless Steel)

Different rail structures can be selected according to slaughterhouse layout and production requirements.

Heavy‑Duty Conveyor Structure

Main components include:

• Closed No.8 C‑beam track

• Die‑forged conveyor chain with push fingers

• High‑polymer wear‑resistant wheels

• Driving device

• Pneumatic tension system

• Climbing and descending track

• Rotation section

• Frequency conversion control system

Adjustable Conveyor Speed

The frequency inverter enables flexible speed adjustment to accommodate different slaughter capacities and production schedules.

Hygienic and Durable Design

Available in:

• Hot galvanized steel

• Food‑grade stainless steel

The corrosion‑resistant construction performs reliably in wet slaughterhouse environments and is easy to clean.

Technical Specifications

Technical data are based on the HT HT‑S105‑I automatic bleeding conveyor rail specification.

Application

The Sheep Automatic Bleeding Conveyor Rail is installed immediately after the bleeding lifting machine and before the skinning section.
