Chicken Slaughterhouse Spiral Pre-chiller
A Key Component for Ensuring Chicken Meat Quality
In modern poultry slaughter lines, the spiral pre-chiller serves as the “cooling core” in the slaughtering process, directly affecting the hygiene, safety, and freshness of chicken meat. This equipment is widely used in medium to large-scale chicken processing plants and export-oriented slaughterhouses and is essential for meeting international food safety standards.
1. What is a Spiral Pre-chiller?
A spiral pre-chiller is a cooling device used to rapidly lower the temperature of chicken carcasses. It mainly uses a spiral conveyor system to move the carcasses through cold water or ice water for uniform and efficient cooling.
2. How Does the Spiral Pre-chiller Work?
The spiral pre-chiller generally consists of:
● Stainless steel spiral conveyor that automatically pushes carcasses from the inlet to the outlet, minimizing manual handling.
● Insulated water tank maintaining cold water temperature.
● Automatic water replenishment and drainage system for water recycling and energy savings.
● Ice water or chilled water supply system, sometimes integrated with refrigeration units.
3.Advantages and Technical Features
● Made of food-grade stainless steel, compliant with hygiene standards
● Spiral conveyor design prevents carcass piling and damage
● Intelligent control for preset cooling time and speed adjustment
● Compatible with ice water system or external chiller units
● Suitable for Large, medium and small poultry slaughterhouses, supporting production capacity of 500-15000BPH
