Sealed Air Cryovac Whole Bird Automation Systems automate the most labor-intensive tasks of packaging whole poultry such as hock breaking, bag loading, and vacuum sealing. System components include the Cryovac HBX Series Hockbreaker, the Cryovac BL220 Automatic Bag Loader, the Cryovac 8600E Series Rotary Chamber Vacuum System and the Cryovac ST101 Shrink Tunnel. By integrating these four pieces of equipment with a proprietary shackle line and conveyor system, Cryovac Whole Bird Automation Systems allow one operator to package an average of 45 birds per minute.
Cryovac Whole Bird Automation Systems help processors balance the need for packaging that meets consumer expectations for shelf-appeal and food safety with the need to also package birds efficiently and cost-effectively.
