The Meyn Jet Stream Scalder delivers superior defeathering results with reduced operating costs. Unlike traditional air injection-based scalders, this system eliminates air usage, improving energy efficiency, cuts water waste, and reducing maintenance requirements. Its unique water flow system maintains consistent heat transfer while keeping birds reliably submerged and maintaining a uniform temperature throughout the scalding process, resulting in consistently high-quality defeathered products.
The Jet Stream Scalder uses a high-turbulence water flow system that helps promote uniform feather follicle loosening, enabling easy plucking without harming the skin. The water temperature remains uniform throughout the process, preventing quality deterioration such as localized overheating (‘cooked’ spots) on the breast, which can occur when heat input is too aggressive or uneven.
Downward water flow-optionally combined with multiple rinse stages-helps remove debris and organic residue before plucking, contributing to a cleaner process and improved hygiene. The system is compatible with direct or indirect steam heating, offering flexibility to match different line requirements.
With an open, canopy-free design, the Meyn Jet Stream Scalder helps keep the surrounding area drier by minimizing moisture and condensation.
For processors looking to improve scalding consistency and reduce operating costs, the Meyn Jet Stream Scalder provides an energy-efficient, scalable solution. Precise temperature control and innovative water-flow dynamics help maintain uniform scalding conditions, supporting consistent results while lowering environmental impact.
