5000 BPH DUCK SLAUGHTERHOUSE WAX DIPPING AND DEWAXING LINE PROCESS

Optimized Duck Processing with NPW’s Wax Dipping and Dewaxing Line

In modern poultry processing, efficiency and hygiene are paramount. NPW’s integrated wax dipping and dewaxing line for duck slaughterhouses is designed to handle up to 5000 birds per hour, ensuring high throughput while maintaining the highest standards of food safety. This specialized system effectively removes fine feathers and hair from duck carcasses, delivering a clean, premium product.

Process Overview

The wax dipping and dewaxing process is a critical step in duck processing. After the initial bleeding, scalding, and plucking stages, ducks may still have residual pin feathers and fine hair. Our line automates the following steps:

Pre-cleaning: Carcasses are rinsed to remove loose feathers and debris.
Wax dipping: Ducks are immersed in food-grade wax at precise temperatures (typically 55-60°C), allowing the wax to penetrate and adhere to remaining feathers.
Cooling: The wax-coated carcasses pass through a cooling tunnel where the wax solidifies, encapsulating the feathers.
Dewaxing: A mechanical dewaxing unit gently removes the hardened wax along with embedded feathers, leaving the skin clean and intact.
Wax recovery: The used wax is collected, filtered, and reused, reducing operational costs and waste.
