Overview
The Scalder is a key machine in the poultry defeathering process, designed to apply controlled hot water conditions to loosen feathers before the birds enter the plucking stage. Consistent scalding is essential for achieving reliable feather removal while maintaining the required processing conditions for different bird types and production requirements.
The machine is constructed from AISI 304L low-carbon stainless steel together with food-grade POM and PA66 components, providing resistance to the wet and demanding environment of poultry processing. The system can be configured around the required line capacity and scalding conditions, with controlled water temperature and product movement supporting repeatable processing.
Designed for continuous poultry production, the Scalder provides stable carcass handling and controlled thermal exposure before defeathering. Its hygienic construction, practical maintenance access and continuous operating capability make it a reliable component for modern slaughter and defeathering lines. The system is suitable for Broiler, Layer and Breeder processing applications when correctly configured for the specific bird and process requirements.
