The neck breaker (cracker) is designed to remove necks automatically and without damage to the neck skin. The breaking units are guided by a cam and separate the neck from the spinal column. The double slide blocks provide a uniform neck breaking. The machine can be adjusted to break at a certain neck length, which depends on your product requirements. All necks drop in a central collection bin and are conveyed to a central drain by a wiper. An optional Neck Skin Trimmer can be integrated with the neck breaker which cuts off the bottom of the neck skin.
