Fairway Packing Co. introduced digital production and inventory management at its new Michigan facility to replace paper-based processes and improve visibility across its meat processing operations.
The optical precision sorter uses multiple IDS industrial cameras along a 1.5-metre inspection section to classify potatoes by size and quality, with up to five grades produced in a single pass.
The food manufacturer deployed an On-Machine control architecture to simplify engineering, improve maintenance, and create a scalable end-of-line packaging system across its production facilities.
