Horizontal Hydraulic Hide Puller for Sheep

Product Features:

This machine's core is powerful pulling force and hide protection. A high-torque hydraulic motor drives the hide winding roller, delivering smooth and powerful pulling force to ensure successful hide removal even when adhesions are tight. The self-tightening head clamp securely grips the animal's jawbone, preventing slippage. The specially rubber-coated winding roller provides uniform friction while pulling the hide, effectively reducing stretching and tearing of the hide pelt. This maximizes the hide's integrity and area, protecting its economic value. The horizontal design positions the carcass on a work table, facilitating initial circular cuts and manual assistance by the operator, offering good human-machine coordination. The machine is robustly built and easy to maintain.

Product Specifications:

Applicable animal weight range: Sheep 20-80 kg, Calves ≤150 kg. Single skinning cycle time is approximately 30-60 seconds. The hydraulic system motor power is typically 4-5.5 kW. The winding roller diameter is about 200mm, with an effective pulling width suitable for various sizes. The machine offers an open operating space for easy cleaning and maintenance. An optional leg clamp kit is available to adapt to different skinning methods starting from the hind legs.

Product Application:

This machine is used in sheep or calf slaughter lines after bleeding and removal of head/hooves. The operator first performs initial manual skinning on the carcass, separating key connection points on the limbs, chest, and abdomen, and attaches the hide edge to the winding roller. The machine is then activated: the clamp secures the head, and the winding roller begins rotating, mechanically pulling the hide off the carcass completely, similar to removing a sock. The tubular hide removed intact is convenient for subsequent processes like fleshing, washing, and curing. Compared to tedious and labor-intensive manual skinning, this machine increases skinning efficiency severalfold and reduces hide damage caused by inconsistent skill levels, ensuring hide quality. It is crucial for slaughter enterprises where sheepskins or calfskins are important by-products.
