Poultry processors tend to harvest every gram of meat from their raw material to achieve optimal carcass balance. If they don't want to rely on third parties, meat preparation can be a profitable business for them with great potential. Properly prepared, the meat mass can result in an infinite number of tasty end products such as nuggets, meatballs and burgers.
Besides having their fillets inspected for bone contamination, poultry processors are also eager to get some kind of automated fillet quality inspection. Marel's IRIS FI (Fillet Inspection) camera offers such a visual quality assessment. Because of its ability to detect defects such as bruises, fat and skin, IRIS FI plays an essential role in supplying highest quality food.
