Trim Management System with Fat Measurement Analysis for Meat Processors

Source: Eagle Product Inspection

Installing an Eagle fat measurement solution with a trim management system allows slaughterhouses to accurately analyze the Chemical Lean (CL) ratio of red meat and manage beef and pork trim into batches of a pre-determined target fat percentage. Trim Management systems allow accurate packing of either plastic crates, cartons or combos to a predetermined CL target and weight target. The system performs a real-time online simultaneous CL calculation and foreign object inspection. The system has 4 stations allocated to each target CL value to achieve the desired level accuracy.
