H-4900 : Restrainer

This conveyorized hog restrainer is used for any size of hogs. The walkway slopes downward, so that the hog can be wedged by the flights which propel it toward the discharge end. Since the hog loses footing, stunning probe is easily applied. Two restrainer conveyors with plastic flights mounted on the same galvanized base can be installed in series for higher operation speed.They allow more space between hogs, easing the stunning and shackling operations and avoiding any electric transfer from one hog to another.
