The main objective of this project was the continuous improvement of the design of cattle equipment suitable for the slaughter of Australian cattle in overseas markets. The Mark 3 restraining box is different from the earlier boxes (Mark 1 and 2) and is designed to lift the animal in a smooth sided, ‘v-shaped’ restraint. The report details the design of the developed box, tested via computer modelling and recommends comment and scrutiny is sought from industry prior to fabrication.
