A poultry wing tip processing apparatus (9) wherein the mid-wing segments are severed from the drumette segments of the wings of poultry carcasses, or other similar fowl. The carcasses are conveyed in an inverted attitude suspended by their legs from shackles as their torsos move between a pair of guide rods (44) and guide rails (56) prior to reaching a pair of rotary disc cutters (34). A ramp (66) is positioned to engage the shoulder portions of the carcasses and a second pair of guide rods (71) engage the mid-wing segments of the carcasses. The elbow joints between the drumette segments and the mid-wing segments move toward and through the rotary disc cutters (34) as a pair of elbow joints engaging means (40) engage the elbow joints and guide them through the disc cutters (34), wherein the mid-wing segments are severed from the drumette segments.
