Engineered for high-volume integrators demanding animal welfare, zero stress haulage, and uncompromising biosecurity compliance.
A technical paradigm shift: Overcoming labor shortages, stress-induced downgrading, and biological contamination through automated gathering solutions.
Traditional manual catching remains one of the largest financial leakages in broiler operations. Catching crews operating under low-light conditions induce severe stress responses, resulting in wing hemorrhages, thigh bruising, and claw lesions. Studies show manual capture accounts for 3% to 7% product downgrade at slaughterhouses, alongside catastrophic biosecurity breaches caused by rotating human labor moving between disparate poultry farms.
Modern automatic chicken catching machines operate using counter-rotating, ultra-soft polyurethane rotor fingers. These gently guide broilers toward a central low-friction intake conveyor without lifting or terrifying the birds. The continuous, steady conveyance minimizes wing flutter, eliminates inverted handling asphyxia, and maintains baseline avian heart rates throughout transit into multi-tier transport drawers.
A standard GoldBees automated chicken catching harvester achieves operational throughput ranging from 6,000 to 10,000 birds per hour with a crew of just 2 to 3 operators, compared to 10-14 laborers required for equivalent manual catching. This represents an immediate 75% reduction in manual labor overhead and eliminates worker physical hazards related to repetitive strain and ammonia-laden deep-litter environments.
Leveraging full-chain industrial synergy, electromechanical depth under CP M&E, and cost-to-performance competitive dominance.
Integrated manufacturing campus in Cixi, Zhejiang, housing precision laser cutting, robotic welding gantry cells, and comprehensive dyno-testing facilities.
Backed by the Charoen Pokphand Group (CP M&E) supply infrastructure, testing every design iteration against millions of commercial broilers weekly.
China's consolidated supply ecosystem provides top-tier Danfoss/Rexroth hydraulic systems and laser-cut chassis at significantly reduced capital expense.
Industrial electronics and heavy hydraulic circuitry designed explicitly for thermal chemical foaming, steam jet cleaning, and terminal farm disinfection.
How automatic catching integrates seamlessly into broader biosecurity, feed conveyance, and climate-controlled broiler haulage.
Automatic harvesters remain on designated production units or undergo terminal sterilization inside drive-through disinfection tunnels. Coupled with GoldBees specialized broiler trucks featuring anti-backflow air ventilation, pathogens such as Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and Salmonella cannot traverse geographic clusters via transport equipment.
Xinbaiqin automatic chicken catchers interface straight into international drawer systems (Anglia Autoflow, Stork, Meyn, or GoldBees custom modules). The machine's discharge head incorporates dynamic hydraulic leveling to load stacked crates smoothly without drops, reducing wing tip breakage by up to 88%.
Our complete machinery line connects directly with farm IoT platforms. Hydraulic operating pressure, bird harvesting throughput counters, intake speed, and truck bay docking sensors upload diagnostic data in real time, granting plant managers operational visibility hours before the transport convoy arrives at the receiving dock.
Detailed performance benchmarks demanded by agricultural integrators across North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.
Demands center on compatibility with low-profile poultry houses, high crawler terrain stability on deep sawdust bedding, Tier 4 Final/Stage V diesel engines or pure electric drivetrains, and full compatibility with large 2.4-meter live haul transport frames.
Prioritizes compliance with strict EU animal welfare regulations (Council Regulation EC No 1/2005). Core evaluation criteria include conveyor surface durometer measurements, decibel ratings below 70 dB during capture, and zero incidence of foot-pad burn trauma.
Buyers across Southeast Asia, Brazil, and the Middle East require high-capacity engine cooling packages, rust-proof hot-dip galvanized chassis frames, marine-grade hydraulic seals, and continuous-run capabilities under ambient temperatures exceeding 45°C.
Complete lifecycle support machinery engineered for reliable commercial operations across global agricultural networks.
Measured operational parameters compiled across commercial broiler processing complexes (500,000+ birds/week).
GoldBees Automated Harvester: Captures 7,000–10,000 birds/hr requiring only 1 machine pilot and 2 crate alignment technicians.
Manual Harvesting: Reaches 3,500–5,000 birds/hr requiring 10 to 14 workers, suffering severe fatigue drop-offs after 3 hours of night labor.
GoldBees Automated Harvester: Bird trauma <0.8% total incidence. Gentle rotor fingers prevent flapping, maintaining pristine breast meat and wing joints.
Manual Harvesting: Bruising ranges from 4.5% to 8.2%, primarily caused by hand grabbing legs, inverted hanging, and crate jamming.
GoldBees Automated Harvester: Full IP69K sealed electricals. Structural 304 stainless steel contact zones allow hot alkaline wash and quick sanitization.
Manual Harvesting: Catching crews bring footwear, clothing, and transport vehicles across multiple locations, posing a continuous viral vector risk.
Direct answers covering equipment sizing, broiler barn adaptability, maintenance protocols, and global logistical support.
Our intelligent chicken harvesters feature 4-wheel independent hydraulic steering or rubber crawler drive designs with zero turning radii. With machine widths starting under 2.2 meters and articulated steering geometries, the harvester navigates between house support posts, low drinker winches, and feed line pillars without causing structural collisions.
Commercial deployment audits confirm that replacing manual catchers with the GoldBees gentle harvester cuts broken wings and bruised legs by 70% to 85%. DOA (Dead on Arrival) processing figures routinely show 0.15% to 0.35% reductions due to lower stress-induced lactic acidosis and suffocation incidents during loading.
Yes. Our engineering division manufactures customizable drawer interfaces compatible with all major modular crate ecosystems, including Anglia Autoflow, Meyn, Linco, and Stork. We offer hydraulically height-adjustable conveyor tailgates that align directly with both truck-mounted crates and autonomous in-house container trailers.
Xinbaiqin supplies both low-emission Tier 4F/Stage V quiet-pack diesel engines and zero-emission Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery electric drives. Electric units eliminate all engine exhaust fumes and acoustic disturbance inside closed, tunnel-ventilated poultry sheds, optimizing bird calmness during harvesting.
Every commercial machine ships with comprehensive English engineering manuals, hydraulic schematic blueprints, CE documentation, and a standard 12-month/2,000-hour structural warranty. Spare parts consignments—including replacement soft rotor fingers, hydraulic filters, and drive belts—are stocked and shipped globally via DHL/FedEx or consolidated sea-freight containers.
