1000 BPH Duck Slaughtering Line

1000 BPH Duck Slaughtering Line Solution

1. Solution Overview

The 1000 BPH duck slaughtering line is a dedicated automatic meat duck processing solution designed by Qingdao Raniche Machinery Technology Co., Ltd., based on practical engineering experience for overseas poultry markets.

Duck processing differs significantly from chicken processing in terms of scalding control, feather removal, waxing process, and chilling requirements.
This solution demonstrates Raniche’s capability to design species-specific, medium-capacity duck slaughterhouses with a complete and well-organized workflow.

The layout and configuration shown are provided as a reference engineering solution, intended to showcase design capability rather than fixed technical specifications.

2. Design Positioning & Application Scenario

This 1000 BPH duck line is positioned as a commercial-scale duck processing model, suitable for customers who:

• Focus on meat duck processing

• Supply regional fresh or frozen duck markets

• Require stable continuous production

• Need waxing and de-waxing processes for skin quality

• Plan cold storage or freezing integration

It is commonly applied in Australia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and other duck-consuming markets.

3. Duck-Specific Processing Concept

Compared with chicken slaughtering lines, this duck solution is designed around several key duck-processing principles:

• Longer bleeding and scalding time

• Controlled scalding temperature for duck skin

• Waxing and de-waxing process integration

• Manual or semi-automatic evisceration for accuracy

• Screw-type pre-chilling for stable temperature reduction

These characteristics are fully reflected in the overall layout and equipment arrangement.

4. Processing Flow Description

The typical duck slaughtering and processing flow includes:

1. Live duck receiving and crate conveying

2. Hanging and stunning

3. Slaughtering and bleeding

4. Scalding

5. Primary defeathering

6. Waxing and cooling

7. De-waxing

8. Feet cutting

9. Manual evisceration

10. Fine feather cleaning

11. Screw-type pre-chilling

12. Dewatering and grading

13. Packing or freezing

This flow ensures clean appearance, stable output, and good product consistency.

5. Functional Layout & Zoning (Engineering Display Description)

 Live Bird Handling & Slaughtering Area

Includes crate conveying, stunning, bleeding, scalding, and defeathering.
This area is designed as the primary dirty zone, with independent drainage and waste collection.

 Waxing & De-Waxing Area

A dedicated wax processing section ensures complete feather removal and clean duck skin surface, which is critical for market acceptance.

 Evisceration & Fine Cleaning Area

Manual evisceration and fine feather cleaning stations allow precise handling of internal organs and final carcass appearance control.

 Pre-Chilling Area

The screw pre-chilling system provides efficient and uniform cooling within a compact space, suitable for medium-capacity duck lines.

 Packing, Cold Storage & Freezing Area

Space is reserved for fresh product storage (0–2°C), cold storage (-18°C), and blast freezing rooms (-36°C), supporting diversified product output.

 Auxiliary & Utility Areas

Includes boiler room, ice-making room, refrigeration system room, feather and blood processing areas, and staff support zones.
