The device is used to de-stack a column of crates with live birds consisting of 7 or 8 containers and feed them individually to the chain conveyor.
OPERATION
The stacks of containers are introduced into the machine by means of a scissor conveyor, placed directly in front of the de-stacker, and a two-row chain conveyor before the de-stacker. Once the two stacks of containers are in position, the conveyor stops and the lifting table raises the stacks to such a height that the gripper holds the second lowest row of containers. The table with the lowest crates is lowered and the chain conveyor takes the two crates out of the de-stacking machine. After the crates have been brought out, the table rises to its highest point, the gripper lets go of the crates, then the table lowers to a level so that the gripper can hold the second lowest row of crates. The table is lowered and so on until all the crates have been removed from the de-stacking machine.
ADVANTAGES
– Maintenance-free
– Easy cleaning and maintenance
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
The installed power depends on the slaughter capacity and the type of live poultry crates
Simplifying Workflow with an Automatic Crate Destacker
As poultry processing operations strive to keep up with increasing production demands, the need for streamlined, efficient equipment becomes ever more critical. The automatic crate destacker from Szlachet-Stal offers a practical solution for one of the most common bottlenecks in poultry handling – managing empty crates.
By automating the destacking process, this innovative machine helps maintain a continuous flow of materials through the processing line, reduces manual labor requirements, and ensures a more hygienic working environment.
Enhanced Efficiency and Precision
When production lines rely on manual crate handling, the results often include slower workflows, inconsistent performance, and increased strain on workers. The automatic crate destacker eliminates these issues by smoothly separating stacked crates and feeding them into the production line one by one. This process not only improves overall efficiency but also ensures that crates are evenly spaced and correctly oriented for subsequent processing stages. The precise, automated operation reduces the risk of crate jams or misalignments, leading to a more reliable and predictable workflow.
Hygiene and Safety Benefits
Maintaining high hygiene standards is a cornerstone of poultry processing, and the design of Szlachet-Stal’s crate destacker reflects this priority. Made from stainless steel and corrosion-resistant components, the machine is easy to clean and able to withstand regular washing and sanitization. By minimizing the need for manual crate handling, the destacker also reduces the risk of contamination and supports a safer, more sanitary work environment. Additionally, the automation of this repetitive task decreases the likelihood of workplace injuries, such as strains or repetitive motion disorders, improving the overall well-being of employees.
Flexibility and Scalability
The modern poultry processing industry often involves handling a variety of crate sizes, weights, and materials. Szlachet-Stal’s automatic crate destacker is designed with flexibility in mind, accommodating a range of crate types and adapting to different production volumes. Whether your operation handles standard crates or more specialized containers, the destacker can be configured to meet your unique requirements. This scalability makes it a valuable long-term investment, as it can evolve alongside your operation’s growing needs and changing demands.
