Explore our top-tier manufacturing line manufactured by Xinbaiqin Special Vehicle (CP M&E), built to withstand heavy-cycle sanitization, extreme ambient thermal swings, and high-density bird handling.
Across modern commercial broiler operations in North America, Europe, Latin America, and Southeast Asia, manual live-bird catching has evolved into an unsustainable operational liability. Finding dependable labor willing to execute high-intensity manual catching within dark, dusty, ammonia-dense poultry houses during night shifts has reached crisis proportions.
Manual catching crews endure hazardous ergonomics, repetitive stress injuries, dust inhalation, and high turnover. Mechanical chicken harvesters replace manual catching crews of 8-12 workers with a centralized, cab-operated robotic system operated by just 2-3 personnel, ensuring predictable harvesting schedules that processing slaughterhouses depend upon.
In manual catching, panicked bird flapping, inversion by feet, and hasty crate loading trigger high frequencies of wing fractures, dislocated hips, subcutaneous hematomas, and elevated stress. Intelligent chicken harvesters capture broilers smoothly in upright natural resting states, transporting them horizontally via broad rubber conveyors into modular transport drawers with minimized physical stress.
For high-volume primary processing plants processing 100,000 to 300,000 birds daily, a 1% reduction in downgrades represents millions of dollars in annual margins. GoldBees automated catching guarantees an uninterrupted flow of intact, unbruised broilers, eliminating post-scalding blood clots and bone splintering in high-value deboned breast fillet operations.
Manufactured in Cixi Modern Agriculture Industrial Park, Zhejiang, by Xinbaiqin Special Vehicle Co., Ltd. within the electromechanical arm of Thailand's Charoen Pokphand Group (CP M&E), our manufacturing infrastructure pairs heavy industrial automation with real-world agro-enterprise empirical data.
Spread over 66,667 square meters, our manufacturing line integrates robotic laser cutting, multi-axis robotic welding cells, and electrostatic fluorocarbon coating bays. By fabricating heavy hydraulic booms, aluminum-magnesium transport chassis, and electrical control switchboards in-house, we eliminate sub-tier procurement delays, ensuring reliable delivery cycles for enterprise-level tender orders.
Unlike purely mechanical fabricators who lack live-bird operational experience, GoldBees hardware is directly engineered alongside Charoen Pokphand Group's immense broiler and livestock operations. This direct feedback loop allows our engineering teams to validate machine components under severe ammonia vapor exposure, high-pressure sanitizing washes, and varied ground conditions across Asian and global breeding networks.

GoldBees combines mechanical gentle-handling mechanisms with next-generation sensor fusion, proportional load-sensing hydraulics, and predictive telemetry to optimize poultry catching efficiency.
The front intake system incorporates custom-formulated food-grade polyurethane rotary fingers. Operating at variable ultra-low RPM, these fingers guide resting broilers without grasping pressure, lifting them onto the wide intake conveyor without skin tears, foot bruising, or feather extraction.
Two-tier variable speed conveyors synchronize directly with machine forward crawler speed. As the harvester moves forward, the conveyor matches intake speed, preventing flock pileups and panic suffocations in warm poultry houses.
The rear discharge system incorporates an automated drawer feeding mechanism. High-precision dynamic load cells calculate live-weight totals in real-time, cycling container drawers when predetermined bird counts or batch weights are achieved to avoid density violations.
When global agribusiness leaders procure poultry harvesting machinery, capital expenditure represents only 20% of life-cycle calculations. Operational continuity, modular crate compatibility, chassis durability, and parts availability dictate genuine project return on investment.
Modern broiler houses vary from open curtain houses with packed soil floors to sealed tunnel-ventilated houses with concrete pads. Our harvesters feature ultra-wide, low-ground-pressure vulcanized rubber tracks that navigate uneven litter, wood shavings, and damp manure without bogging down or disturbing subfloors.
Whether using Anglian, Stork, Meyn, Linco, or proprietary CP drawer systems, GoldBees harvesters feature hydraulically adjustable discharge chutes. This ensures alignment with existing live-bird transport trailers and modular forklift-ready containers without requiring plant-wide container replacement.
Harvesting 1.2 million broilers per month across enterprise farm clusters typically amortizes the capital expenditure within 11 to 14 months. Savings stem from catching crew elimination, lower transportation fuel use via tighter schedule adherence, and fewer processing plant condemnation deductions.
Avian Influenza (HPAI) and Salmonella biosecurity regulations require poultry handling equipment to be sanitized thoroughly between site visits. GoldBees vehicles and harvesters are engineered for complete thermal wash-down and strict regulatory adherence.
All sensitive sensors, PLCs, solenoid valve blocks, and wiring harnesses are sealed inside hermetic stainless steel junction modules that withstand caustic chemical sanitization and 100-bar high-pressure hot water washes.
All structural surfaces contacting birds utilize smooth electropolished stainless steel and high-molecular poly ethylene (HDPE), eliminating weld crevices, blind corners, and debris pockets where bacteria colonize.
Our complete machinery portfolio holds full CE machinery directive certification, ISO9001 quality management compliance, and adherence to EU Council Regulation (EC) No 1/2005 on the protection of animals during transport.
With operational hubs in Asia, regional partner networks, and factory-certified mobile technicians, Xinbaiqin delivers on-site commissioning, operator ergonomics coaching, and direct spare parts distribution across six continents.
Direct answers to core operational questions submitted by corporate poultry production directors, fleet engineering managers, and procurement officers.
