VC-T

The vent cutter is the first and most critical machine in the evisceration department. Its performance directly impacts the entire line: if it fails, no downstream operation can compensate, and the product may be lost. JBT Marel’s VC-T is a cutting-edge, dedicated turkey vent cutter, renowned in the market for its unmatched precision, consistency, and reliability.

The VC-T vent cutter efficiently cleans, clamps, and draws out the cloaca and bursa fabricii. Thanks to precise product positioning before operations take place, reliable and consistent cutting is ensured. 

Accurate vent cutting remains consistent even in flocks with wider weight ranges. The JBT Marel VC-T vent cutter is designed to handle different shapes and sizes, for both male and female turkeys, making it ideal for variable product input.

The operation is fully hygienic, with products kept separate and water sprayers continuously cleaning both the products and drilling units. The drill-out operation leaves other inner and outer parts untouched; the back, kidneys, and tail remain undamaged, thereby maximizing yield.
