MachineryTriviaEscaldadora para Cerdos: ¿Cuba de Escalde o Túnel de Escalde?

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
