class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stages_of_a_slaughter_line\"><\/span>Stages of a slaughter line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless of species, every slaughter line follows an equivalent sequence of stages: pre-slaughter animal handling in lairage and pens, stunning and slaughter, bleeding and hoisting via <a href=\"https:\/\/maquinariacarnica.com\/en\/aerial-railway-slaughterhouses-cattle-sheep-pig\/\">overhead rail<\/a>, dressing and transfer, skinning or scalding and dehairing depending on the species, evisceration and carcass splitting, and finally chilling before transfer to the <a href=\"https:\/\/maquinariacarnica.com\/en\/machinery-meat-industry\/\">cutting room<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What changes between species is not the sequence, but the machinery required at each stage, the line speed, and the type of stunning and restraint. The following table summarises the main differences: <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Comparison_of_slaughter_lines_by_species\"><\/span>Comparison of slaughter lines by species<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th><strong>Feature<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Cattle line<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Pork line<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Sheep line<\/strong><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Average carcass weight<\/td>\n<td>200\u2013350 kg<\/td>\n<td>70\u2013100 kg<\/td>\n<td>15\u201330 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Typical capacity<\/td>\n<td>20\u2013120 head\/hour<\/td>\n<td>100\u2013600 pigs\/hour<\/td>\n<td>100\u2013400 sheep\/hour<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stunning<\/td>\n<td>Electrical stunning box or captive-bolt gun<\/td>\n<td>CO&sub2; or electrical box<\/td>\n<td>Revolver box \/ restrainer<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Scalding and dehairing<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<td>Yes, scalding tank and automatic dehairer<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Skinning<\/td>\n<td>Rotary knife, dehorners<\/td>\n<td>Not applicable<\/td>\n<td>Species-specific skinning systems<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dressing platforms<\/td>\n<td>Pneumatic elevating platforms (3\u20135 levels)<\/td>\n<td>Fixed or elevating<\/td>\n<td>Fixed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ritual slaughter<\/td>\n<td>Ritual box (halal\/kosher)<\/td>\n<td>Halal boxes<\/td>\n<td>Sheep Revolver Box (kosher)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cattle_slaughter_line\"><\/span>Cattle slaughter line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cattle line handles the highest carcass weight of the three species, which requires an overhead rail and structure sized for loads of up to 450 kg per trolley. The process incorporates an electrical stunning box or captive-bolt gun, hoisting and bleeding systems, pneumatic dressing platforms that adjust in height to each operator\u2014typically between 3 and 5 levels\u2014and skinning systems using a rotary knife and dehorners. When the plant performs ritual slaughter, a dedicated ritual box for halal or kosher is integrated.  <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pork_slaughter_line\"><\/span>Pork slaughter line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pork line has the highest hourly capacity of the three, with restrainers that immobilise the animal for stunning\u2014typically by CO&sub2; or electrically\u2014before bleeding. Unlike cattle and sheep, pigs are not skinned: they pass through a scalding tank and an automatic dehairer that removes hair from the skin, which is retained as part of the carcass. Dressing systems are usually fixed or use elevating platforms depending on the plant\u2019s throughput.  <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sheep_slaughter_line\"><\/span>Sheep slaughter line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sheep line handles much lighter carcasses, enabling more compact installations without reducing regulatory requirements. It includes sheep-specific restrainers, bleeding and hoisting systems, and species-specific skinning systems. For ritual slaughter, BLASAU manufactures the <a href=\"https:\/\/maquinariacarnica.com\/en\/ovine-revolver-box\/\">Sheep Revolver Box<\/a> (model LM205C5): a five-compartment rotary system that turns the animal into a dorsal position before the cut, meeting kosher (shechita) slaughter requirements alongside the animal welfare requirements of <a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/ES\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX%3A32009R1099\">EC Regulation 1099\/2009<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Regulations_applicable_to_slaughter_lines_in_Spain\"><\/span>Regulations applicable to slaughter lines in Spain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any slaughter line in Spain and the EU must comply with three regulatory frameworks: <a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/ES\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX%3A32009R1099\">EC Regulation 1099\/2009<\/a> on the protection of animals at the time of killing; <a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/ES\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX%3A32004R0853\">EC Regulation 853\/2004<\/a> on the hygiene of food of animal origin; and Royal Decree 731\/2007, which sets out the specific conditions for abattoirs in Spain. All BLASAU machinery is designed to comply with this regulatory framework from the initial project stage. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_a_complete_slaughter_line_cost\"><\/span>How much does a complete slaughter line cost?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cost of a slaughter line depends on the species, hourly capacity and degree of automation, and ranges from compact installations for low-volume abattoirs to high-capacity industrial lines with pneumatic platforms and integrated ritual systems. Given the number of variables\u2014species, capacity, required civil works and level of automation\u2014the quotation is always prepared on a bespoke basis after assessing the specific project. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BLASAU_turnkey_design_and_installation_since_1977\"><\/span>BLASAU: turnkey design and installation since 1977<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BLASAU S.L. has been designing and installing slaughter lines in Spain and Europe for more than 45 years\u2014since 1977.
