Manual birail rail
Tubular rail (manual or automatic)
PA semicircular profile rail (manual or automatic) Manual birail railManual birrail rail
The birrail is a type of rail for meat transport. This type of rail is characterized by its inverted C-shaped construction and lateral guides, along which run the hooks with wheels, from which the carcasses or racks with pieces of meat are hung. The hook hangs from the central part of the rail, thus having a support wheel on each side.
The construction can be made of galvanized steel or stainless steel. Changes can be made manually or semi-automatically with pneumatic actuation.
It can be used for the transport or storage of carcasses.
Tubular rail (manual or automatic)Tubular in galvanized steel (manual or automatic)
The tubular rail is a type of rail for the transport of meat hung on a European hook or with a sheave. As its name indicates, this type of rail has a tube as a support base; this can be of Ø48 or Ø60mm.
This type of rail can be provided for manual or automatic movement of the carcasses. If it is automatic, it will be a chain that will move the product along its path by means of triggers (or pushers).
It can be used for both transport and storage of carcasses.
The finish of the chassis and the support would be mainly of galvanized steel and the tube and its support, of stainless steel.
PA semicircular profile rail (manual or automatic)PA semicircular profile rail (manual or automatic)
This solution is very similar to the tubular solution and replaces the pipe rail for a semi-circular polyamide profile, PA6, supported on top of a T-profile.
This material has a lower coefficient of friction and has the advantage that the passing of the product does not wear the structural tube, but the wear element can be replaced.

Stabilization chambers
Stabilization chambers
Manual or automated stabilization chambers with automatic carcass movement.
The way of storing can be either FIFO or in loop to be able to move specific carcasses; always guaranteeing the traceability of the product.
We specialize in pork, beef and ham chambers.

Rapid cooling chambers
Rapid cooling chambers
We build rapid cooling chambers, which are used to cool the carcasses in a progressive way and for a certain time according to the client’s needs.
The transport will always be FIFO and will advance slowly in order to ensure that from the point of entry and exit of the tunnel, a certain time has passed and, therefore, the temperature of the carcasses has dropped as desired. Normally the total time will be between 1.5 and 2 hours.
Minimum temperatures can be as low as -30ºC.
Return of hooks
Return of empty hooks
Nowadays, the return of empty hooks is a necessity in slaughterhouses, considering their volumes and production speeds.
We design and supply hook returns for European, roller or birrail hooks. The hook is brought from the cutting room, where it is released, to the beginning of the process where it is required. For a good optimization, an empty hook storage is included to be able to store them at the end of the shift.
This can include an automatic hook washing system and also a damaged hook detector (for hooks with sheave and birrail).

OTHER APPLICATIONS
OTHER APPLICATIONS
Modular bands
Design and supply of conveyor belts for all types of applications; cutting, picking and movement of boxes, etc. We manufacture all the necessary mechanisms during the product trajectory, such as diverters, weighers, gauges, etc. Machine automation and product traceability are included.
Loading and unloading bars on docks
We install loading and unloading docks designed according to the customer's needs. We adapt the dimensions of the design in relation to the loading docks and the trucks that the customer has and are made to measure. They can be fixed and with manual position change or they can incorporate a pneumatic telescopic mechanism to facilitate the operation and the resting position when the dock is not in use. In principle, loading and unloading docks will be differentiated according to their slope (loading with a downward slope to the truck; unloading with a slope towards the inside of the building). However, they can also be completely flat, which would allow loading and unloading on the same dock.
Dynamic weighing scales
Supply and integration of manual and automatic rail scales.
Hydraulic unloading arm
The hydraulic arm allows an agile unloading, when there are no unloading bars available. It allows the load to be moved without difficulty and to be lifted to the desired rail height. The same hydraulic arm can be used for two docks if they are consecutive and we place it in the middle.
Work stations
We have a wide variety of work stations for different types of hooks, different heights and weights. We adapt to the customer’s needs and products.
Semi-automatic hook changer
The hook changer allows to change from birail hook to European hook or vice versa, in an agile and safe way. With the help of 2 pneumatic mechanisms, the machine holds the weight and the hook change is made.
Hydraulic lift for pallet or jumbox
Hydraulic scissor lift with a maximum stroke of 2.200 mm and for a maximum load of 1.500kg. Possible application: jumbox filling, during which the lift will lower to allow filling. Once loading is complete it will fully raise to allow an operator to remove it with a pallet truck at ground level.
Manual de/palletizing lifts
This application significantly improves operator ergonomics for palletizing boxes of product. The arrival of the product would be on one side of the elevator and the operator would start filling the pallet. Once a certain height has been exceeded, the pallet would be lowered to reduce the operator’s effort. Once the loading is finished, the pallet would be raised to ground level to be picked up by a pallet truck or electric forklift on the other side.
Hydraulic unloading ramps
Roller conveyors for manual forklifts
Pallet conveyor designed for the delivery and reception of pallets with a manual forklift. It can be automatic and synchronized with the warehouse entrance doors.
Transport of guts
After the initial slaughter process at the entrance of pig carcasses to the slaughterhouses, the guts are removed. These are deposited in trays and then transported to where they are required. iclomeat supplies tailor-made installations for automatic air transport of guts.
Ham lying and high speed sorting belts
The unloading of hams arriving in umbrellas is carried out in an agile and semi-automatic way. With the help of 2 operators, one on each side of a conveyor belt, the umbrella of hams arrives and is then lowered with a descending conveyor. The evacuation of the hook is done without the operator having to touch the upper part of the hook and it is removed through the central part directly into a container. The operators help to unhook the hams and, by means of belts, the hams are directed to the high-speed ham classification area, which will divert hams by batches to the selected jumbox.
Pork lying
At the entrance to the pork butchering room, the pig must be laid down. For this purpose, an automatic chain descender is installed with a design that allows the correct horizontal positioning of the piece on a conveyor belt. The overhead descender and the horizontal belt must be synchronized to guarantee a good descent. In the middle of the process, the hook holding the part must also be automatically removed, and the part will be evacuated either to a container or to an automatic hook return conveyor.
