Product information from the supplier.
Product Overview
The Sheep Carcass Overhead Rail Scale weighs a suspended carcass without taking it off the processing rail. A short live‑rail section is supported by two load cells, and the indicator converts the measured force into a weight reading. This arrangement keeps product movement continuous and provides a natural data point between final dressing and chilling.
The reference scale has a 300 kg maximum load and 50 g readability, with an 800–1,000 mm weighing rail section. A display and printer are listed. Several rail profiles are offered, including tubular, twin‑angle and flat‑track formats. Legal‑for‑trade use, calibration division and printer data fields depend on the destination country; the source specification alone does not establish metrology approval.
Working Principle
The carcass trolley rolls from the fixed approach rail onto the isolated weighing section. Two precision load cells sense the applied load while the surrounding structure remains mechanically separated from the live rail. Once movement settles, the indicator displays the stable weight and can send a record to the printer or another data system. The trolley then moves onto the departure rail. Correct approach alignment, freedom from pipe contact and a stable supporting structure are essential for repeatable readings.

Application
The scale is used for hot‑carcass weighing, yield monitoring, grading records and inventory transfer in sheep or goat abattoirs. It is commonly installed after final trimming and washing, with enough straight rail on both sides for the trolley to settle. Specify trolley type, rail section, maximum dynamic load, data output, printer language, power supply, washdown exposure and the legal metrology requirement at the project location.
Reference Application Case
Reference application: a 200‑head‑per‑hour sheep line places an 800 mm live rail after a drip section and before the chilling switch
Each trolley pauses briefly, the indicator captures the stable weight, and the printer produces a lot record tied to the kill sequence. A daily check weight verifies drift, while a certified technician performs formal calibration at the required interval. The plant keeps hose supports and conduit clear of the live rail so they cannot bypass the load cells. This example does not imply trade certification for the listed model.
Advantages
1. Collects weight data within the normal carcass flow
2. Avoids floor‑scale handling and rehanging
3. Twin load cells support a stable isolated rail section
4. Printer provision allows simple batch documentation
5. Choice of rail profiles reduces retrofit work when dimensions are confirmed early
