Abstract
In a method for mechanically gaining flesh from poultry bodies and an apparatus for carrying out this method, a series of tools are employed that are arranged along a conveyor (1) which has supporting elements (4) for supporting poultry bodies (58). These tools are formed with the aim of achieving a high quality end product at a high yield that is appealing to the eye. The processing of the poultry bodies (58), which are conveyed and securely held by the supporting elements (4), is performed sequentially using controllable scraping elements, stop elements, scraping blades, knives and strippers which loosen the connection between the skeleton (69) and the fillet flesh in a specific order.
