Poultry Packaging
The production of poultry products from hatching to
packaging uses vacuum and lowpressure air provided
by Becker products.
The following is an adventure in applications using
standard products from the Becker family of vacuum
pumps and blowers.

• Sauce Control
Vacuum
• Egg Pick Up
• Vacuum Tenderizers
• Sausage Degassing
• Vacuum Packaging
• Booster Blowers

Blower Applications
• Tank Aeration
• Scrap Trim Collection
• Pneumatic Conveying
Hatchery Tray DryingAfter the washing process, hatchery trays are
normally stacked to dry, often for more than 24 hours.
The compact, low horsepower, low noise, Air Knife
Drying System dries the top, bottom and sides of
hatchery trays enough to allow the paper liners to be
installed and trays reused immediately after washing.
Systems from 15 to 30 horsepower utilize high
velocity low volume air (up to 1200 cfm) to dry better
and faster than compressed air systems of up to 70
horsepower.
The first stage of drying is a double bank of high
velocity jet nozzles aimed to impact and release
water from hard to reach areas. The second and third
stages rely on highly efficient air knives with velocities
up to 35,000 feet per minute. A knife edge curtain on
all sides prevents the water droplets from passing.
If viewed in slow motion, one drop is pushed back
to join another and another until the weight of the large
drop exceeds its ability to stick to the tray (surface
adhesion). The mass is now pushed off, much like an
invisible squeegee, not one drop at a time but as a
wave.
Energy SavingsA 1/8” diameter hole in a compressed air pipe at 75 psig will allow 3.0 scfm of compressed air to escape. The average compressor produces 4.5 scfm per horsepower. A quantity of 5 holes 1/8” in diameter equals 15 scfm or 3.3 horsepower. Drying eggs or hatchery trays would require hundreds of holes to remove the water. Hundreds of holes , hundreds of horsepower, cold wet contaminated air. The Adamark Advantage: 25-30 horsepower warm dry air with guaranteed drying results .
Guarantee
Our competitors claim 85-90% dry which means 10-15% wet . 10% of a lot of water is still a lot of water. The Adamark Guarantee: 100% customer satisfaction with the drying results and horsepower savings . If not we correct it at our expense or accept the system back for full invoice credit .
Belt Cleaning
The Adamark System can continuously clear both sides of cutting belts of poultry pieces , blood and fats while the belt is in use. This results in drastically reduced sanitation times . The same air knives can
dry belts after sanitation in 2 to 3 passes , not 2 to 3 hours . Maintenance and manual cleaning is virtually eliminated. Waste is confined to a designated cleaning area .
The Adamark System can be designed to add up to 60ºF over ambient temperature to the drying air stream. High velocity high temperature air can be used to remove frost and even ice from freezer belts . This means less defrost time and less product slippage on frozen belts . Reduced maintenance and faster belt speed is another Adamark Advantage.

Egg DryingThe development of coding eggs put increased
demands on existing drying systems. The multi-stage
system dries individual eggs as they tumble on roller
beds 24 to 60 inches wide. Blowers provide warm, dry
oil free air at velocities up to 32,000 feet per minute.
High velocity and low pressure means the air knife
does not have the blast force to splash a broken or
cracked egg reducing losses to only the eggs on
either side. Existing installations report a reduction in
both noise and horsepower over traditional systems.

belts. This means less defrost time and less product
slippage on frozen belts. Reduced maintenance and
faster belt speed is another advantage.
Package DryingSelf Contained Modular Conveyorized Drying
System are designed originally to dry water from tray
packaged poultry pieces after a hot water shrink
tunnel. Removing all the water prior to weighing
means accurate weights and no lost time due to
having to dry and reset the scale.
Dry packages mean labels won’t crinkle, wrinkle,
slip, slide or stick to the package above. Inkjet codes
never smear on dry film. The modular self contained
drying conveyor fits in a six foot space between the
shrink tunnel and the labeler. The system integrates
the air knives and blower into one unit featuring a
variable speed drive designed to prevent product
crowding at the scale.
What began as a custom solution to drying poultry
pieces in tray packs has evolved into a versatile
product line capable of drying kielbasa to whole
wrapped or unwrapped birds to packages or hotdogs.
Sauce ControlOne area where Air Knives really shine is in the
control of sauce on breaded or un-breaded poultry
pieces. Too little sauce and your customers are
unhappy. Too much sauce and unit costs increase
due to increased material consumption and increased
freezing times. A single stainless steel blower driven
air knife with Hepa filtration will remove just the right
amount. Variable frequency smart drives can be
integrated with product codes or line speeds to adjust

vacuum pumps in two operating ranges of 2 Torr
and 0.4 Torr. Oil lubricated pumps can be supplied
with booster blowers for fast evacuation down to 0.4
Torr. Becker long lasting durable oil free rotary vane
vacuum pumps are used in automated pick and place
carton packaging. Regenerative blowers and vacuum
pumps from R.E. Morrison Equipment Inc. range from
Becker’s worlds best in engineering and design to bolt
in replacements for any competitive model.
Egg Pick and PlaceBecker oil free compact and quiet rotary vane
vacuum pumps provide the instant vacuum required
to remove eggs from processing lines. Both handheld
wands and automated robotic pick up arms utilize the
power of Becker pumps.
Carton Erecting and Case PackingBecker oil free pumps are ideal for applications
in carton feeding and case packing. Many new
equipment manufacturers use Becker oil free rotary
vane vacuum pumps to move cartons through the
packaging process. With vacuum levels up to 27”
Hg, the recovery time is almost instant on plastic
or styrofoam cartons. When fiber cartons are used
Becker high volume regenerative vacuum pumps are
used to overcome the porosity of the carton.
Vacuum Massaging and TenderizingBecker oil lubricated rotary vane pumps dominate
this market in Europe. Ultra quiet and very efficient
the Becker Advantage is dependability. No need for
expensive oil and costly maintenance. R.E. Morrison

delivers the optimum volume to ensure consistent
vacuum whether one or ten users are active.
BaseVac Systems and unique filtration options keep
production speeds at desired levels with reduced oil
maintenance due to contamination.
Vacuum PackagingFor many years vacuum packaging was the
dominant market of our competition because of the
space limitations of placing a non-standard pump in
a cabinet. No longer are pumps limited to the vacuum
packaging cabinet. Our Becker Systems are available
to replace any brand of vacuum pump in the vacuum
packaging of poultry or red meat. Becker oil lubricated
pumps capable of 0.4 Torr can be supplied stand
alone or with booster blowers in packages. The use
of a booster blower with variable frequency drives
or traditional bypass valve load protection makes a
Becker pump work like any other.
Sausage DegassingBecker pumps are standard equipment
on Handtman Stuffers and adaptable for all
manufacturers. Compact size and powerful
performance make Becker a leader in this field.
Vacuum regulated at 29” Hg and a competent oil
separation system places Becker at the top of the
list. Central Systems can be engineered to supply
many stuffers in a loop. This works only with medium
vacuum demand systems. Variable frequency
controlled pumps eliminate fluctuations common in
traditional multi-pump systems.
Beyond PackagingTank aeration, waste pond aeration, scrap
collection, spice conveying and vacu-hoist lifting are
listing only a few.
Becker provides sales, engineering, service,
overhauls and warranty repairs throughout North
America.
