Online paw cutters for poultry processing
Achieve precise cutting and efficient shank removal with high-speed operational capabilities, ensuring seamless integration into your existing processing line for enhanced productivity.

The OPC-1-Series Online Paw Cutter from Prime Equipment Group is a high-capacity, inline processing solution designed for poultry, meat, and seafood industries. This rotary blade cutter specializes in removing shanks from poultry paws with precision, enhancing efficiency in high-speed production lines. It processes solid product types such as poultry paws, chicken wings, and turkey paws, utilizing its fully automatic operation to ensure continuous, seamless integration within your processing setup.
Made of high-quality stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance, the OPC-1-Series operates with minimal manual intervention, thanks to integrated brushes that securely remove the cut paw from the shackle. It boasts variable production rates dependent on line speed, suitable for large-scale processing environments. The system’s 2 HP and 1/2 HP motors (at 208/230/460 Volt) assure sustained operation, while simple water connections facilitate easy integration into existing facilities.
Despite its robust construction, the Paw Cutter is designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, streamlining operations in demanding food production environments. It forms an integral part of a comprehensive paw processing system, contributing significantly to the optimization and reliability of the production line.
