Robotic Beef Hock / Hoof Cutter
New MAR Technology Development for Beef Processing
Overview
The Robotic Beef Hock/Hoof Cutter replaces the actions of current manual hock cutting operations for beef processing.
The system utilises a robot with integrated sensing to profile, detect and accurately cut.
Benefits
- Labour – 1 operators per working shift
- Species – Beef
- OH&S – reduced injuries and accidents
- Increased Yield – accurate cuts referencing dew claws allow for better tendon recovery
- Productivity – consistent, repeatable operations with reduced rework
- Efficiencies – minimise waste, flexibility to change cut specifications
- Hygiene – reduced contamination compared to manual operations
