Food For Thought

Using Robotics to Optimize the Performance of Processing and Packaging Lines

This episode is sponsored by Marel.

In many segments of the food industry, in particular meat, poultry and seafood, manufacturing products requires multiple processing steps to get from live animal to a food portion. Automation and robotics can help processors where speed and efficiency are needed to create uniform, consistent products and package them in such a way that protects the products and attracts the customer.

Thomas Danmark, commercial manager for the Robotics and Batching product groups at Marel, discusses the challenges that processors need to address when implementing robotics and automation solutions, as well as how vision and gripper technologies continue to evolve to improve the speed of the lines, the quality of the products, and the gentle handling of the equipment on the product.
