Better stunning,
improved meat quality

Jarvis Products Corp. manufactures two different types of stunners penetrating, and non-penetrating (concussion). Both are pneumatically
operated, and guarantee one shot, humane stunning procedures that

render a stunned animal completely insensible to pain.
These stunners, both with twohanded controls, ﬁre only once with
no recoil or kick back. No air is injected
into the animal. Both Jarvis' penetrating and non-penetrating stunners can
be utilized with either monorail or
head type restrainers.
Jarvis also makes stunner testers
for both penetrating and concussion
machines. The company also supplies
a multi-point pressure regulator for
different air pressure requirements.
The stunners were recently dem-

onstrated at the recent American
Meat Institute's Animal Care and
Handling Conference in Kansas City,
Mo., and will be shown at the upcoming A.M.I.-sponsored Worldwide
Food Expo in Chicago.
