Top 7 benefits of automating pork cutting and deboning
Automating pork cutting and deboning can bring you a wide variety of benefits including greater product diversity and reduced labor dependance.
As a pork processor, you face numerous challenges, from labor shortages to rising production costs to shifting consumer demands while maintaining quality, yield, and throughput levels. These obstacles can hinder productivity, increase costs, and impact the overall efficiency of your operations. Automation can help you overcome these hurdles and achieve your goals, specifically in the cutting and deboning phases of production.
By automating the cutting and deboning in your pork processing line, you can address these challenges and achieve a range of benefits that significantly improve your operations. Here are the top 7 advantages you can gain:
- High productivity
The DeboFlex automates and deskills various tasks, streamlining your cutting and deboning line processes. That means workers can focus more on their individualized tasks and complete them quickly while the platform handles functions like loading and positioning. This focus improves productivity, reduces processing time, and enhances product quality.
- Safe work environment
The innovative conveyor system of the DeboFlex platform reduces the need for manual lifting by vertically hanging the pork primals and automating the flow, minimizing strain and the risk of injuries. Furthermore, the ergonomic height-adjustable workstations are designed to accommodate each task’s requirements in the pork cutting and deboning process and the worker’s unique size and skill, creating a safe and comfortable working environment.
- Reduced labor dependence
The DeboFlex integrates advanced automation equipment that simplifies and streamlines numerous tasks typically executed through manual labor. Operators perform a single action before the product moves along the line. As a result, there is a reduced dependency on highly skilled manual labor and increased profitability.
- Enhanced traceability and product quality
Advanced real-time monitoring with the DeboFlex allows processors to maintain consistent quality, yield, and throughput levels. With improved control and visibility, processors can make data-driven decisions, optimize processes, and ensure product consistency. Connected and intelligent monitoring also enables processors to track and trace products more effectively, ensuring proper quality control.
- Consistent shelf life
The DeboFlex platform reduces the amount of work in progress on the floor, making it easier to control the aging process and maintain consistent shelf life across all products. By minimizing variations, processors can ensure product freshness and reduce waste.
- Achieving maximum yield and value
With the DeboFlex, processors can maximize carcass and meat value. By optimizing the processing methods and leveraging the platform's capabilities, processors can enhance yield and increase the overall value per carcass.
