Checkweighers for live poultry

Innovation, which is Vendée Concept’s priority, is at the heart of our constant improvement process.
In this article, discover the new inventions developed by our teams in the field of live poultry.

Checkweigher CALIBRA T QUARTZ

Dynamic, fast and accurate weighing. Robust and patented modular belt. Discover the certified checkweigher CALIBRA T QUARTZ. Made in France.

The checkweigher CALIBRA T QUARTZ is composed of a weighing platform allowing to calibrate in movement all types of products, bare or packed. The 8” touch screen allows the programming of the different calibres. The management software offers you a panel of possible programming.

Inteligent conveyor CALIBRA OVA-B

The inteligent conveyor CALIBRA OVA-B allows an increase of your productivity !

First of all he improves the instant rate up to 20% extra.

Then he adjust the supply of products in real time upstream of a Vendée Concept weighing conveyor CALIBRA CD for a better optimisation of the weighing of the products

Robot integration

The robot integration in the food industry is proposed from now on by Vendée Concept. Available for several applications in the poultry, seafood, meat or elaborated products sectors.

Also, the robot is equipped with and adaptable gripper and customised to the diffrent food industry applications, fully created by Vendée Concept, the integration of robots to production lines that already exists is now possible thanks to a partnership with Stäubli.

Moreover a fixed weight association is possible with a weighing bridge CALIBRA CD  and a checkweigher CALIBRA T Vendée Concept.

Associative weigher CALIBRA OPEZ-B

The CALIBRA OPEZ-B works in two stages. The upper part is used to place products. There are seven weighing buckets that discharge in 14 buffer hatches with angular opening (two for each bucket). Each product have to be placed individually in one of the 7 buckets. When a product has been weighed, the bucket swivels by 90° and places it on the buffer hatch. At that moment, the program calculates the better combination in order to match the targeted weigh.

Individualized deboning and cutting line, Station line

Calibra SL Station Line is a smart slaughter line. Which allows the realization of de-boning/trimming operations per work station. The objective is to handle products supplying for each operator work space directly from a computer. This process is the best way to minimize issues related to products coming to fast or too slow and creating some delay in treatment. It also enhances implementation of the working space and limit the handling of products by operators.

Overhead grader Calibra LA trays

The overhead grader ergonomics has been studied to preserve your employees’ health. In response to the sick leave and musculoskeletal diseases problematic, Vendée Concept has developed the tray overhead grader, a practical and ergonomic process which reduces the risk of professional diseases.

The poultry parts previously cut on the cone line are placed by operators on the trays passing in front of their workstation. This new working way is ergonomic because the operators stay on a comfortable working area. To place the poultry parts, the movement is not going over the elbow height; it prevents tendinitis and unnecessary movement. The overhead system enhance your working areas.

Overhead grader Calibra LA Hooks

Vendee Concept patented its overhead grader system. The hook system allows overhead product conveying and a better precision at weighing. The patented hook overhead grader lets free space on the floor thanks to its ceiling-mounted overhead conveyors.

As a consequence this overhead system optimizes your working areas. The CALIBRA LA HOOK is best suited for fresh products, like poultry, whether they are cut or in one piece.

Compact grader CALIBRA CC

Compact and very simple to maintain, the CALIBRA CC is ideal for small and medium companies.

Composed of 3 to 8 ejection stations, in a left/right combination or in line, the CALIBRA CC improves productivity and resolves your pace constraints .

This compact grader is able to sort different products simultaneously in large quantities. It is an economical grading solution with a maximum performance using minimum space.
