All poultry farmers know that the process of plucking carcasses is quite time-consuming and lengthy. It’s good if there are few carcasses and you can clean them manually. But if you need to pluck a large number of them, to cope with it manually is very problematic. In this case, you can not do without a peroschipalny machine.
Types of lifters
Technologists have developed an amazing mechanism that allows you to clean the bird from feathers in a few minutes. All removable structures are divided into:
Industrial devices are large, equipped with poultry farms. Households vary depending on capacity and volume. Some of them allow you to load several carcasses. Others are designed for only one. The price will also depend on the volume.
Household machines can be purchased in stores offering special equipment for farmers. Removable design can be made independently. The in-house manufacturing process requires materials and drawings.
How is a scraper designed?
Peroschipalnaya machine provides quick removal of the feather from the bird. In this case, the carcass is not damaged, and the feathers are removed completely. Before immersion in the apparatus, the carcass is scalded with boiling water, put it in the car and the engine is turned on.
Unfortunately, such a device has a high cost - about 25-35 thousand rubles. Not every farmer can afford it. But do not despair, because such a design can be done on its own.
Peroschipalnaya machine consists of a drum, inside studded with rubber fingers, and operates on the principle of a centrifuge. After switching on, the bottom rotates, the carcass turns over. Rubber processes pick up feathers, pull them out. Water washes the feather out. It takes no more than a couple of minutes to process one carcass. Up to 30 carcasses can be plucked per hour.
Search details
To make a do-it-yourself plucking machine, you should start by preparing all the necessary parts. The most important question that arises before the master: where to get the bills? Farmers with experience in the independent manufacture of the unit are advised to order these parts. Yes, the purchase will be expensive, but this is the biggest waste in the manufacturing process. Each finger costs about 10 rubles, and one design requires about a hundred bills. All other items can be found almost for free.
When ordering, you need to keep in mind that the bills are different in size. The largest ones are suitable for plucking turkeys and geese, the smaller ones are for broiler carcasses, and the smallest ones are for assembling a quail carriage. You can order bite fingers over the Internet at farm goods stores.
Reconstruction of the washing machine
An old but working Oka will be required for a perchipal machine from a washing machine. The process of remaking it will be minimal. It will be necessary to move the engine and electrics out. For this:
- perform engine dismantling;
- remove the activator and drive device;
- take out all the electrics and carefully set aside.
Then you need to prepare a hose from rubber and put a shower head on it.
Tool preparation
To create a peroschipalny machine need tools:
- open-end wrenches;
- adjustable wrench;
- ratchet with different heads;
- angle grinder;
- drill;
- pliers;
- ruler;
- multimeter;
- felt-tip pen.
This is a basic list of tools. Perhaps something else will be needed in the process.
Assembly process
Some craftsmen advise to make a peroschipalny machine for geese from a plastic container, supplementing it with bills and a drive structure. The use of the washing machine is convenient in that it already has a drive and activator mechanisms, as well as an engine.
However, there is some difficulty. Through the holes for the rubber fingers and to drain the water, water will flow out and enter the engine and electrics. It is unacceptable. Therefore, you need to do this:
- the engine must be protected with a plastic case from any appropriate box, a metal corner will be suitable as a base;
- to check the engine, you need to connect it to a power outlet;
- metal corners are used to make a reliable base;
- two pulleys of the washing machine are put on the shafts of the engine and the activator device and are connected by a belt;
- when checking operation, the engine must start the activator;
- then gaps are made in which rubber beats will be installed, the distance between them is 3 cm;
- larger holes are also needed to remove water and feathers;
- gaps for beats must be lubricated with machine oil, beats can be set;
- the hose is attached to the edge, while the shower head should look inward.
The nibbler is ready.
A carcass watering system will help to clean it much faster than a process performed without water.
If there is no washing machine, you can replace it with any other cylinder made of metal or plastic. Typically, containers with parameters of 70 by 80 cm are used. If a metal cylinder is selected, the thickness of the metal should be more than 1.2 mm. Finger holes are also drilled, while considering that the bills must be held very firmly. The bottom of the cylinder is cut off, fingers are also attached to it. The bottom is connected by a sleeve with a circle of plywood. On the bottom of the sleeve put on a disk that is connected to the engine.
As a base, you can make a wooden structure. An ordinary wooden frame with four legs connected by cross members will do. To prevent water from splashing up, a plastic cover is needed. In conclusion, the cylinder is fixed in a wooden frame.
The process of creating your own pen design is uncomplicated. The main thing is to show care and patience, and you can enjoy the created device for a long time.
