The Pneumatic Line Tensioner from Dutch Poultry Tech is a key component in overhead conveyor systems used in poultry processing facilities. Its primary function is to maintain correct line tension, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted movement of shackles and carcasses throughout the processing line.

Proper tensioning is essential to avoid operational issues such as chain slack, uneven movement, or excessive wear on conveyor components. By maintaining stable tension, the system helps ensure reliable operation from the start of the line through to evisceration, chilling, and packing stages.

Unlike manual tensioning systems, this model uses a pneumatic air cylinder, which significantly reduces operator effort and allows for fast and precise adjustments. The system is equipped with a high-quality Festo pneumatic cylinder, ensuring durability and consistent performance in demanding industrial environments.

The Pneumatic Line Tensioner is designed for flexibility and can be integrated into different conveyor setups. It is suitable for both tube and T-track systems and can be combined with corner wheel sizes of 291 mm, 485 mm, or 680 mm, making it adaptable to a wide range of processing line configurations.

Key features include:

• Pneumatic air cylinder for low-effort line tensioning.
• High-quality Festo components for reliable performance.
• Ensures stable and consistent conveyor operation.
• Reduces wear and improves system longevity.
• Compatible with tube and T-track overhead conveyors.
• Suitable for corner wheels of 291, 485, and 680 mm.

The system is constructed from stainless steel and other hygienic, non-corrosive materials, ensuring durability in demanding poultry processing environments. Its design supports easy integration into both new and existing lines.

By combining efficiency, precision, and ease of use, the Pneumatic Line Tensioner plays an important role in maintaining optimal performance and stability in modern poultry processing systems.
