Beef carcass orientation control study

29 November 2021
Focus area: Automation, processing and efficiency
Program stream: Innovation and technology leadership
Project number: 2021-1221
AMPC partnered with Intelligent Robotics (IR) to develop a concept to enable orientation of a beef carcase whilst maintaining control of the final position when hanging. 

Trials of the concept were performed to prove the feasibility and functionality of the solution in a red meat processing environment. 

It was determined that the turning mechanism concept was sufficient for common carcase shapes when at a fixed height.
