Case Study

Brazilian Processor Eliminates Bile Contamination

A Brazilian broiler plant struggled with 1.8% bile contamination on livers, threatening export contracts. Turnkey installed a servo-driven evisceration module with active torque sensing that halts extraction if organ resistance is detected. Contamination dropped to 0.04%, recovering 2.7 grams of clean liver per bird, adding $220,000 annually. The line runs at 12,000 birds per hour with two operators. Vacuum offal transport replaced water fluming, saving 1.3 liters of water per bird. Open stainless frames enable full sanitation in 28 minutes, achieving a 99.5% ATP pass rate. The plant achieved payback in six months through offal sales and reduced rework. This single upgrade also reduced post-evisceration Enterobacteriaceae by 2.2 log, strengthening the plant's halal certification.

Thai Plant Boosts Liver Recovery with Intelligent Evisceration

A Thai poultry integrator producing premium liver packs for Japan experienced 1.6% gall bladder rupture. Turnkey's evisceration line with torque-control spoons reduced rupture to 0.03%, gaining 2.9 grams of liver per bird. This added $240,000 in annual revenue. The line processes 13,000 birds per hour, and vacuum extraction separates offal streams instantly, preventing aerosol contamination. Water use decreased by 1.2 liters per bird, and post-evisceration aerobic plate counts dropped by 2.1 log. The tool-less design allows sanitation in 26 minutes, supporting three-shift operation. Downtime from evisceration faults fell to 0.2%. The plant achieved a 7-month payback and secured a long-term contract with a Japanese supermarket chain requiring zero fecal contamination.

US Plant Cuts Labor and Water with Full Slaughter Line Retrofit

A Georgia poultry plant processing 140,000 birds daily replaced its aging kill line with Turnkey's complete slaughter equipment line. The new electric stunning and dry plucking modules cut wing breakage to 0.2% and reduced water consumption by 1.5 liters per bird. Evisceration with torque sensing reduced organ rupture to 0.07%, increasing liver yield by 2.6 grams per bird. Direct labor on the kill floor dropped by 18%, saving $280,000 annually. The open stainless construction allows sanitation in 35 minutes, passing ATP swabs at 99.4%. The modular installation was completed during a three-day weekend shutdown. Total yield improvement of 2.1% added $390,000 in revenue. The project paid back in 11 months.

Servo-Driven Evisceration for Maximum Offal Integrity

Servo-Driven Evisceration for Maximum Offal Integrity

Turnkey's evisceration module uses servo-driven spoons with embedded torque sensors that sample resistance 200 times per second. When abnormal pressure is detected, the spoon instantly stops, preventing gall bladder and intestine rupture. This keeps contamination below 0.08% and maximizes edible offal recovery. A Colombian plant using this system gained 2.8 grams of clean liver per bird, adding $250,000 in annual revenue. Enclosed vacuum channels separate red offal from green waste immediately, preventing aerosol cross-contamination. The tooling telescopes outward for sanitation, allowing a full foam-and-rinse in under 28 minutes. The HMI provides real-time torque feedback, alerting operators to flock stress. This precision reduces whole-carcass condemnations by over 50%, turning the evisceration station into a reliable profit center.
Dry Plucking and Water Reclamation for Sustainability

Dry Plucking and Water Reclamation for Sustainability

Our dry plucking system eliminates traditional scald water flood, using precisely controlled rotating fingers that remove feathers while preserving skin integrity. A US plant recorded skin tears below 0.3% and eliminated post-pluck manual finishing labor. The closed-loop water circuit feeds only a small volume for surface wetting, cutting total water use by 1.4 liters per bird. Feathers are pneumatically conveyed to a dry collection bin for rendering, avoiding floor discharge. Quick-release finger banks allow species changeover in under five minutes, and the hinged frame opens fully for sanitation. One Georgia operation saved 20,000 gallons of water daily and reduced wastewater treatment costs by $30,000 per year. This dry plucking technology also reduces cross-contamination risk, improving overall plant hygiene scores.
Modular Design for Rapid Installation and Expansion

Modular Design for Rapid Installation and Expansion

Turnkey's poultry slaughter equipment line features a bolt-together modular architecture that dramatically reduces installation time. A full kill-line retrofit can be completed during a three-day weekend shutdown, with modules pre-tested at our facility. The adjustable frames synchronize with any existing overhead conveyor, eliminating the need for welding or concrete work. One US plant replaced its stunning and plucking sections without stopping production on the remaining line. This phased approach allows processors to start with an evisceration upgrade and later add chilling or cut-up modules without structural modifications. RFID carriers and a central PLC integrate new modules seamlessly, preserving full traceability. The modular design also simplifies future capacity expansion, protecting the initial investment as market demand grows.
