Feet are unloaded into the feet scalder and are conveyed through it by a screw conveyor.  Feet are discharged from the scalder by an ejector fitted to the screw conveyor. 
Feet are scalded by keeping them submerged in hot water (± 60°C) for some minutes.

The water is heated through direct steam injection or (for the high capacity scalder) through hot water inside a double wall. An overflow on the infeed side keeps the water at the correct level.

• Driven by motor reductor
• Non-corrosive materials
• Temperature of the scalding water is regulated
• The XL scalder is suitable for the highest processing capacities. Heating the scald water can be done by circulating hot water through a double wall. In this case steam is not necessary.
