Hola a todos estoy traduciendo el proceso de un frigorífico y dice así:

Terminada la inspección y considerada apta para consumo, la res ingresa al túnel de lavado donde un operario procede a su lavado con agua a presión, siempre en forma descendente.

esta es mi traducción:
Once the inspection is finished and it is considered suitable for consumption, the carcass enters the washing tunnel where an operator washes it with pressurized water, always top-down.

Explanation:
"in a downward motion" or "from top to bottom" suena más idiomatico para mi.
