Scott Automated Boning Room Systems were designed to optimise yield, minimise waste, increase food safety and reduce operational costs. The automated boning room is a fully automated system for processing “bone-in” meat products and is able to process carcasses at a rate of 10 per minute
The automated boning room system consists of six individual machines which are seamlessly integrated to transfer product from one machine to another. Scott boning room systems begin with X-Ray Grading before processing, the carcass is then separated into the three primal sections by the X-Ray Primal system, these are then passed to the forequarter, middle and hindquarter systems for further processing finally a knuckle tipper system removes the knuckle tip from the hind leg.
The increased yield comes from improved accuracy, which will have a positive financial impact... For instance, achieving an extra 5mm on French racks, compared to it being on the flap, is substantial.
