The Stantham Vertical Poultry Plucking Machine is a core solution for the critical feather removal stage in poultry slaughter, engineered for both rough and fine plucking processes. As a direct factory manufacturer, we offer a range of configurations (40/48/64/80-disc) tailored to your production output, with capacities scalable from 1,000 to 10,000 birds per hour.
Constructed entirely from food-grade 304 stainless steel, this plucker features a robust A-shaped frame (H-shaped frame optional) with adjustable plucking box height and automatic centering function, ensuring consistent, skin-friendly feather removal for chickens, ducks, and geese. The modular disc design allows for flexible speed and intensity control, delivering high-efficiency plucking while minimizing damage to carcasses.
Designed for low maintenance and hygiene compliance, the machine’s detachable structure simplifies cleaning and repairs. With power options from 8.8kW to 17.6kW, it balances performance and energy efficiency. We provide on-site installation guidance and training to help you integrate the machine seamlessly into your slaughter line, boosting productivity and reducing labor costs.
Customizable Configurations for Every Scale
Choose from 40, 48, 64, or 80-disc models, with power ratings from 8.8kW to 17.6kW, to match your production capacity (1,000–10,000 birds/hour). Dimensions range from 3300×2350×2350mm to 6000×2350×2350mm, fitting both small workshops and large industrial plants. Each model is optimized for specific plucking needs, whether rough removal or fine finishing.
Sturdy & Flexible Frame Design
The standard A-shaped frame (H-shaped optional) offers robust support for continuous operation. The plucking box height and angle are fully adjustable, and the automatic centering system ensures uniform feather removal across the entire carcass, eliminating the risk of missed spots or uneven plucking.
Food-Grade 304 Stainless Steel Build
Every component in contact with poultry is made of 304 stainless steel, meeting international food safety standards. The smooth, corrosion-resistant surface prevents bacterial growth and simplifies daily cleaning, supporting long-term hygiene compliance in your facility.
Efficient, Gentle Plucking Technology
High-density rubber discs remove feathers quickly without tearing skin or damaging meat, reducing product waste. The variable-speed drive lets you adjust plucking intensity based on poultry type (chicken, duck, goose) and feather density, delivering consistent results even with high-volume processing.
Low Maintenance & Easy Servicing
The machine is designed with detachable parts for quick disassembly, making cleaning, repairs, and disc replacement fast and convenient. The wear-resistant rubber discs have a long service life, and the modular design means you only need to replace individual components instead of the entire unit.
Reliable Performance & Cost Savings
Built with high-quality motors and drive systems, the machine operates stably with a low failure rate. The energy-efficient design reduces power consumption compared to traditional pluckers, lowering long-term operational costs. Its high efficiency cuts labor needs by over 80%, significantly reducing your overall production expenses.
Comprehensive After-Sales Support
We provide a 1-year full warranty, lifetime maintenance, 24/7 technical support, and on-site installation and training by our engineers. Spare parts are readily available to minimize downtime, ensuring your plucker stays operational around the clock.
Small & Medium Slaughterhouses
Ideal for small to medium abattoirs with 1,000–3,000 birds/hour capacity. The 40/48-disc models fit compact workshops, offering reliable rough or fine plucking without requiring extensive space or complex installation. They help these facilities improve efficiency and reduce manual labor while maintaining consistent product quality.
Large Industrial Processing Plants
Perfect for large-scale facilities with 5,000–10,000 birds/hour output. The 64/80-disc high-capacity models integrate seamlessly with overhead conveyor systems, forming continuous plucking lines. Their stable performance and adjustable settings ensure uniform results for large volumes of chickens, ducks, or geese, meeting the demands of mass production and export standards.
Duck & Goose Processing Facilities
Tailored for poultry with dense feathers, these pluckers excel at both rough and fine plucking stages. The adjustable plucking intensity and disc density effectively remove tough duck and goose feathers, reducing the need for manual touch-ups and improving processing efficiency for high-value products.
Farm-Based & Regional Processing Centers
Great for integrated poultry farms and regional processing centers. The flexible configurations allow use as standalone units or integration into small-scale lines. The compact models are easy to install and operate, enabling on-site processing that preserves product freshness and cuts transportation costs.
