Cropper – Poultry Processing Equipment

The automatic cropping machine is designed to remove the crop (rests), trachea (windpipe) and oesophagus from birds as part of an automatic evisceration line. The birds are correctly positioned by guides. Stainless steel rotating drilling units enter the cavity to remove any remaining parts of the crop. The drill will be cleaned by a rotating brush before leaving the cavity again. The cropper drill driving mechanism leads to reduced mechanical wear and extended drill life cycle.
