Highlights at IFFA 2019
New robots for the M-line automated slaughter
The new M-line robots made their first appearance at IFFA 2019. They will further extend the existing series of efficient, labor saving and hygienic slaughter robot developments. Leaf lard removal is recognized as one of the toughest jobs in the slaughter process but the new M-Line robot solution does the job precisely, efficiently, and without damage to carcass surface or remaining organs.
New extension to the DeboFlex cutting and deboning system
Marel’s new extended cutting and deboning system drew a lot of attention to the Marel stand. It greatly improves pig carcass - foreend and hind leg - deboning operations. It gives lower labor costs, higher yield, better quality and longer shelf life. It is now available with integrated logistics.
Automatic case ready solution for quality grading and packing
Marel has added q-vision to its case ready lines. By scanning individual cut products, it is possible to add an extra quality parameter to the case ready packing of products.
The new PremiumFormer
The new PremiumFormer – able to produce any desired type of hamburger – was hugely popular at IFFA, showing its flexibility to the utmost.
