Built on proven technology and over 30 years of industry experience. Designed with lean engineering, it delivers a cost-effective solution with low upfront costs, low cost per bird, fast installation, and a quick return on investment.
Our killing line is a fully automatic, floor-mounted solution covering stunning, bleeding, scalding, and plucking. The prefabricated system installs quickly and integrates easily into new or existing poultry plants. This line is the perfect first step into automation.
A complete solution will differ for each company. While our machines are prefabricated, there are many possible configurations. Contact us to discuss the options that best suit your production needs.

Dutch Poultry Tech’s killing line forms a reliable foundation for any poultry processing operation and can be expanded into a complete processing solution from live bird arrival through to chilling. Designed for ease of use, the line is based on proven technology and a modular, prefabricated layout that allows fast installation and perfect performance.
The process starts with arrival and live bird handling, followed by stunning and killing. Birds then bleeds out over the bleeding trough, and moves through scalding and plucking, ensuring feather removal and consistent carcass quality. After plucking, birds are rehung for further processing, with an optional hock cutter available at this stage to suit specific product requirements.
Evisceration can be carried out using manual workstations and evisceration tools (which we also provide), offering a flexible and cost-effective solution for processors starting with semi-automatic operations. As production grows, the line can easily be completed with Dutch Poultry Tech’s automatic evisceration line, enabling a smooth transition to full automation.
At the end of the process, birds can be directed to air chilling or water chilling, depending on capacity, product specifications, and market demands.
This modular approach makes the killing line a scalable and future-proof solution, allowing processors to start and grow step by step with their operation.
