Stunning and Bleeding
The electric stunning of pigs is considered the most efficient way of stunning, when stunning up to 200 heads per hour.
The consequences of incorrect stunning and bleeding include overexposed subcutaneous veins, the breaking of capillaries and bones, colouration of tissue, haematoma, acidifying of meat, etc.
In Limos, we build our own equipment for stunning and bleeding. If used correctly, the equipment substantially prevents any negative consequences that spoil the quality and appearance of meat.
We also supply equipment for stunning with increased levels of carbon dioxide, which is economically viable when stunning larger numbers of animals.
The stunned animal is then hoisted onto the sliding rails with the help of an elevating transporter or chain-host and continues its path through the slaughter line.
