Splitting Saw for pigs

A hog split saw is a type of saw specifically designed for cutting pig carcasses into smaller sections or cuts of meat. It is a large, heavy-duty saw with a long, straight blade and is used to split the carcass lengthwise into two halves. The saw blade typically has large teeth with sharp, pointed tips, which are designed to easily cut through tough meat and bone.

Hog split saws are commonly used in meat processing plants and other food-related industries and are an important tool for meat cutters and processors who need to cut large pig carcasses quickly and efficiently into smaller, more manageable pieces.

An automatic hog split saw is a type of carcass splitting saw that is designed to operate automatically, without the need for manual input from an operator. These saws are typically used in meat processing facilities and other large-scale operations, where speed and efficiency are key factors in the production process.

An automatic hog split saw typically uses advanced technology, such as sensors, cameras, and computer systems, to detect the shape and size of the carcass, and to automatically adjust the position and angle of the saw blade to make precise cuts. These saws are often equipped with safety features such as emergency stop buttons, guards, and sensors to prevent accidents.

In addition to their speed and precision, automatic hog split saws are also designed to improve worker safety and reduce the risk of repetitive strain injuries, as they eliminate the need for workers to manually operate heavy, vibrating saws for extended periods of time.

Frontmatec offers an automatic hog splitting saw at a high speed

The technology behind the Frontmatec Autoline splitting saw gives the most accurate and consistent result in the industry for loin yield, crucial for successful automatic deboning.

In one automated process, the splitting saw cuts through the spine. The splitting saw is equipped with an internal guide and back rollers, resulting in the highest accuracy and consistency on the market, which is important to subsequent operations, for example, automatic deboning.

The splitting saw can process carcasses with or without heads, back-finned or not. A version for splitting sow carcasses is also an option.

The Autoline Splitting Saw APS7

The Frontmatec Autoline splitting saw APS7 ensures uniform processing, accuracy, and high-quality products. With the Autoline splitting saw, continuous operation on the dressing line conveyor is maintained, as the Autoline machines are synchronized with the main line conveyor; so, while carcasses by drop fingers are pulled forward, fixation and processing are performed. The Autoline concept is a dynamic concept, as multiple Autoline machines can be fitted along the main conveyor of the slaughter line. The Autoline machines are all “plug and play” and can operate in any type of new or existing slaughter lines.

To ensure high hygiene levels, as well as easy and efficient cleaning, the machine consists of stainless steel. To eliminate bacteria transfer, the tools, while returning to the starting position, are hot-cold flushed after each operation.

The Autoline splitting saw is CE approved and designed to meet the strictest demand on health and safety.

Why the Autoline Splitting Saw?

The Autoline Splitting saw has a high capacity, capable of processing 750 hog carcasses per hour. When machines are linked in series, the capacity can increase up to 1,500 carcasses per hour. This high capacity creates a successful deboning process with accurate and reliable cuts based on individual measurements of each pig. The machine operates quickly and includes an automatic collection of sawdust and bone splinters – a unique feature in the industry. Furthermore, the machine is designed for easy cleaning and maintenance.
