Study on the automation of offal sorting and transportation systems

04 April 2022
Focus area: Hands-off processing
Program stream: Advanced manufacturing
Project number: 2021-1278
AMPC partnered with NIRAS to perform an investigation and research into the optimisation of offal sortation and transportation systems. 

NIRAS consulted with Australian red meat processors to determine common issues they face with offal sortation and transportation. NIRAS then prepared solutions for these issues which included: 

-    Changing the method of handling condemned and healthy offal 
-    Separating the offal into two separate lines being red and green offal.
