HANDLING DESCRIPTION: Customer is a Beef Packing Plant. At one point in the process, they insert a large container in the neck area of the animal to catch the blood as it flows from the carcass. This “blood bucket” is equipped with a very sharp spike extending at a downward angle from each side to hold it in place. After the blood flow has stopped, the container is removed and hung on a conveyor for transport to a processing area.
PROBLEM: The bucket is not only heavy, when it is full, but the sharp spikes presented a danger to the people handling the bucket. Also, since the contents are liquid, spills are always a concern. One additional problem with this application is the food process area that the machine must work in. It must be suitable to be washed down daily with hot, soapy water from a high pressure washer.
