In the Pig Slaughtering Process, Scalding Is a Critical Stage.
Choosing the right equipment—whether a scalding tank or a scalding tunnel—directly impacts efficiency, hygiene, and the quality of the final product.
Pig Scalding Machines: Scalding Tank or Scalding Tunnel?
At Tecnoincar Toledo, we’ve spent over a decade designing and installing pig scalders tailored to slaughterhouses of all sizes. Here’s a clear, no-nonsense guide to help you choose the best option for your slaughter line.
What Is a Scalding Tank?
A scalding tank is a traditional piece of equipment used in small to medium-sized slaughterhouses. It works by immersing the animal in hot water to loosen the hair for easier removal.
Advantages of the Scalding Tank:
-
Low initial investment
-
Ideal for artisanal or mobile slaughterhouses
-
Manual control of time and temperature
-
Simple maintenance
What Is a Scalding Tunnel?
A scalding tunnel is an industrial scalding system designed for high-capacity pig slaughterhouses. It allows for continuous scalding using automated systems that optimize time and resources.
Advantages of the Scalding Tunnel:
-
High capacity (over 100 pigs/hour)
-
Automated, consistent process
-
Minimal human intervention
-
Seamless integration into industrial slaughter lines
Which Pig Scalder Is Best for Your Slaughterhouse?
-
Small or artisanal production? → Scalding Tank
-
Need speed, automation, and volume? → Scalding Tunnel
