packaging helps reduce labor,
increase quality and yield. At
IFFA, the experts from AIRA and
Frontmatec will offer advice on
robotic solutions and where best
to automate along the process
line. Several robot solutions
will be demonstrated, including
the world’s only circular blade
Cattle Splitting Saw. AIRA will
also reveal their new Leaf Lard
Remover robot for the first
time, which will take the strain
from one of the most tedious
operations on the dressing line.
For the cutfloor, the
Frontmatec Robotic Chine Bone
Saw is on display in a completely
new configuration. Besides
labor-saving, the possibility to
create recipes with parameters
suitable for different customer
wishes or changes in raw
material provides considerable
efficiency and yield gains.
One of the key goals within
the meat industry is improved
ergonomics and Frontmatec
continuously develops automatic
solutions to reach this goal! The
latest state-of-the-art solution is a
high-speed Pork Single Rib Puller
with the automatic pulling of single
ribs with robots, removing one of
the most straining working tasks
within the pork deboning industry.
The unique Frontmatec 2D
Loin trimmer has been updated
with ultrasound to measure
and classify loins with bones
individually. Loins without bones
are measured and classified by
the use of a probe. The input
from the probe and ultrasound
is also used to adjust the cutting
knives and pressure wheels for
the most optimal cut according
to the selected product types,
thus greatly improving yield and
reducing labor costs.
Optimizing and gaining higher
yields is a constant goal for the
meat industry. The Frontmatec
Q-line system can help improve
the production quality and yield,
as it is designed for trimming highvalue
products from beef as well
as pork. All by-products from the
trimming process are collected
in trays, giving complete batch
control by automatic weighing.
For the Q-line, Frontmatec has
developed 3 different software
versions optimized for the
required type of production.
The popular ITEC Star Clean
walkthrough hygiene station for
sole and hand hygiene - presents
itself at the Frontmatec booth
with a new future-oriented
Hygiene 4.0 feature: Smart
Control - Central visualization
and diagnosis of machine
states to optimize operational
processes. Smart Control
provides a precise overview
of necessary and upcoming
service and maintenance work,
enables error analyses via remote
maintenance and provides usage
and consumption data at the push
of a button. It can be integrated
not only into a hygiene station
but in all units that are part of the
operational hygiene process.
With Covid in mind, several fully
operational ITEC hand disinfectant
units will also be on display on the
booth to demonstrate the superior
built quality that is capable to
operate in the harshest type of
environments.
