Intelligent batch selection

Ideal in line with the ACM-NT automatic cut-up system, the RoboBatcher Flex ensures optimal product utilization with intelligent software that co-ordinates feed from the cut up line with the requirements for each tray. The Innova PDS production management software enables the RoboBatcher Flex to request whole legs or drumsticks of a certain weight and quality at a certain speed from the infeed for each tray. This produces an accurate, perfectly styled tray without any production delay.

Two versions for leg products

Available in two different versions for leg products using either two or three cells, this flexible fixed weight batcher can run two individual tray jobs at the same time. This makes it possible to run separate jobs on left and right leg products if desired. No discharge is needed in this system as the RoboBatcher receives only the legs that it requests for each tray.

Suitable for a vast range of plastic and polystyrene trays

The efficient flight-less high friction belt allows the system to run a wide range of different plastic and polystyrene trays. Seamless tray dispensing is ensured with a built in tray buffer system. Changeover from one type of tray to another is fast and easy.

Complete cut-up and batching line

The RoboBatcher Flex for whole legs delivers optimal performance aligned with the ACM-NT cut-up system. Logistics are fully integrated between system components ensuring the best product distribution available. This production set-up offers flexibility and great product utilization while giving processors complete production control and full operational overview. The Marel Poultry poultry cut-up and batching line delivers high product utilization and excellent batching results with minimum giveaway.

• Request the exact leg it needs for each tray from the cut-up line.
• Can run up to two different batching jobs simultaneously
• Works with a wide range of different plastic and polystyrene trays
• Flight-less high friction belt and a built in tray buffer

Benefits of Innova for RoboBatchers

• Real-time monitoring and control reduces giveaway
• Data collection gives insight to optimize processing
• Integration with full line optimizes OEE
• Enhances batch traceability and quality assurance 

Monitor and control batching

The Innova module for RoboBatchers lets you monitor and control your batching operation in real time. The software provides live dashboards showing data for key performance indicators such as giveaway and throughput. They give you a clear overview of actual production and highlight where improvements can be made or whether any corrective action needs to be taken to ensure production is running optimally. Remote program management allows you to control the RoboBatchers settings directly from the office.

Get operational insight

Information about all batches produced is collected and stored in the Innova database. Standard reports can then be created giving you an insight into operational performance on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. This statistical analysis takes away the guesswork and allows you to make data-driven decisions to optimize your batching.

Connect your business

Innova software can be implemented stand-alone with your RoboBatcher or it can be integrated with other Marel processing equipment across a full-line solution. This gives you central control over production, leading to optimized processing, higher yields and complete traceability for each and every batch produced.
