Product Overview
The White and Red Viscera Sliding Chute provides a simple, washable route for moving organs away from the evisceration point. In a well‑planned sheep line, it prevents edible and non‑edible material from being carried by hand across a platform and keeps the transfer path defined. The chute can serve red viscera, white viscera or two segregated duties when the surrounding layout provides the required separation.
The reference unit is made entirely from 304 stainless steel with a 2 mm sheet thickness. It has no motor, gearbox or chain, so maintenance is limited mainly to cleaning, inspection and checking the supports. Correct installation is more important than complexity: the inlet height, slope, edge treatment and receiving container must allow viscera to move without splashing, backing up or contacting the floor.
Working Principle
Viscera are placed into the upper end of the chute after removal from the carcass. Gravity carries the material down the smooth stainless surface to an inspection tray, conveyor, collection bin or processing table. The chute angle supplies the movement; no powered drive is required. During sanitation, the open profile allows direct rinsing and visual inspection. For separate red and white offal streams, the plant should use independent chutes or a positively separated arrangement rather than relying on timing alone.
Main Features

2 mm sheet thickness for a practical balance of rigidity and cleanability
Open, smooth transfer surface with no concealed conveyor return path
Gravity operation with no motor, reducer or electrical cabinet
Compact footprint for mounting beside an evisceration platform
Can discharge to an offal conveyor, inspection table or dedicated receiving bin

Application
The chute is used at sheep and goat evisceration stations, veterinary inspection areas and offal collection points. It is appropriate for new lines as well as low‑cost upgrades where operators currently lift viscera into floor bins. The final arrangement must preserve inspection correlation between carcass and offal, prevent cross‑contact between material streams, and leave enough space for washing the chute and the floor below it.
Reference Application Case
Reference application: a 120‑head‑per‑hour sheep abattoir positions one chute below the red‑offal removal table and a second chute at the white‑offal station
Each chute discharges into its own colour‑coded tray conveyor. The veterinary inspector can follow the trays beside the carcass rail, while rejected material is diverted at a separate point. The chutes are mounted with removable retaining brackets so sanitation staff can expose the wall and platform edges. The example describes a layout concept, not a completed customer installation.
Advantages
1. Low mechanical complexity and minimal routine maintenance
2. Shortens manual handling distance at the evisceration platform
3. Stainless surface is straightforward to wash and visually inspect
4. Can be fabricated into a line‑specific inlet and discharge arrangement
5. Helps keep offal movement organized around the inspection sequence
