Skinning

Townsend’s First Meat Processing Technology


Skinning is where it all began. Ray Townsend invented the first pork skinner in 1946, and Townsend Skinners have lead the industry ever since. No wonder processors look to Townsend for innovations like Kevlar Drive Belts, precision thickness control, high-quality tooth rolls, and Townsend's exclusive blades that arrive in our Safety Sleeve™ packaging making loading and unloading easier than ever.
