Immobilisation
Inhibiting carcass movement is important for operator safety and product quality during early processing of carcasses.Operator safety is no more at risk than during the beef shackling procedure.
The StimTech immobiliser utilises a high frequency waveform and narrow pulse widths enabling high pulse currents to be used while maintaining immobilisation efficacy and operator safety.While the immobilisation current is applied the carcass is held rigid until the current is removed, and is left in a relaxed, limp state.The advantage of the system is that there is no effect on ecchymosis or the tearing of the muscle structure and no adverse effects on the rate of pH decline.These two aspects are particularly important when processing Australian grain fed cattle.
StimTech has developed the Multifunctional Stimulator / Immobiliser such that a spare can be held on site and after simple reprogramming can be used in either application.This is important when they are both process critical applications for worker safety and product quality.
