Meyn - 2010 MEYN Opener

• Automated evisceration lines in poultry processing plants.
• High-throughput slaughterhouses requiring efficient belly skin cutting.
• Facilities aiming to minimise gut damage during processing.
• Operations focused on consistent opening for subsequent evisceration steps.

Typical capacity

Units in this class commonly process between 6,000 and 13,500 birds per hour, depending on specific configuration and line speed.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with specific amperage requirements varying by model.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, a typical footprint would be approximately 1.5m to 2.5m in length, integrated into an existing processing line.

Construction material

Primarily constructed from stainless steel and food-grade plastics to meet hygiene standards and ensure durability in a wet processing environment.

Maintenance requirements

Designed for low maintenance, with key components like the cutting scissors often described as virtually maintenance-free, requiring routine cleaning and inspection.

Integration

Typically designed for seamless integration into existing Meyn evisceration lines, but can often be adapted for other systems with appropriate modifications.

Slaughtering equipment holds strong reputation for durability and consistent performance when properly maintained. Buyers typically value models from established manufacturers known for reliable construction. When purchasing used units, inspectors should prioritise equipment condition, sanitation compliance, and maintenance history. Key strengths include robust build quality, availability of spare parts, and established service support within the meat processing industry. Potential buyers should verify compliance with current food safety regulations and assess wear on critical components before commitment.
