ABSTRACT:
A wing remover (10) for removing the wings from birds as the birds are conveyed along an overhead conveyor line (13) includes wing guides (66 and 67) that engage the birds and cause the shoulder joints between the wings and shoulders of the birds to be opened as the birds are moved towards a cutting station (29). As the birds enter the cutting station (29), they are engaged by a set of first cutting blades (80 and 81) that cut into the shoulder joints of the birds to initiate the separation of the wings therefrom. As the birds are carried further forwardly through the wing remover (10), the wings are urged rearwardly and downwardly as the shoulder joints are carried into engagement with and cut by second cutting blades (95 and 96) to complete the separation of the wings from the birds.
