PRESS RELEASE
Marel Food Systems at
Foodex Meatex 2008, April 6–9
Stand Y290 Hall 17
4 GOOD REASONS
to visit stand Y290 Foodex Meatex 2008
Working demonstrations of new generation machines and systems from four Marel Food Systems companies; AEW Delford, Carnitech, Marel and Scanvaegt, will reveal advances in high speed and portion control slicing, robot loading, weighing, labelling, tray sealing and bone detection. Foodex Meatex 2008 also marks the UK launch of Innova, Marel Food System’s revolutionary new complete production control software. Innova covers the complete value chain in the production cycle from receipt of supplies to product dispatch. It reduces the time a factory manager needs to spend on actively monitoring the production process thereby giving him more time where it’s needed most.
Three working slicing and portioning systems head
a formidable array of technology on Y290.
AEW Delford will demonstrate their new generations automatic, high speed slicing line for cooked meats, bacon and cheese with the very latest, best selling PolySlicer 3000 Vision Slicer linked to a G2300 Checkweigher and an IPL Robot that loads sliced product groups onto a Multivac Thermoformer prior to forwarding onto a Converger and 8060 Weigh Price Labeller.
Marel’s Portion and Pack system comprises the well proven Opticut volumetric portioning machine combined with a Quickloader and a Scanvaegt RF5 checkweigher. This system delivers consistently accurate, fixed weight, boneless meat portions directly into trays ready for sealing and packing.
Scanvaegt’s ScanPortioner B55 is a high output fresh meat portion cutter that, thanks to a sophisticated 3D vision system, produces high volumes of fixed weight portions with exceptional accuracy. The B55 boasts 90 product programmes and user friendly software that facilitates optimum utilisation of each product to provide minimal giveaway, higher yields and
greater output.
ScanCombinator Multihead Weigher
Scanvaegt multihead weighers now incorporate a unique Automatic Feeder Adjustment (AFA) that delivers a consistently high flow of products to the weighing unit. The key to weighing accuracy and high output is an effective vibratory feed system and AFA automatically ensures that each individual feeder vibrates at its own unique resonant frequency at all times, regardless of wear and tear or fluctuations in temperature and humidity- the key to weighing accuracy and high production.
Marel SensorX Automatic Bone Detection System
Thanks to advanced x-ray vision technology, this sophisticated and highly efficient machine detects bones and other foreign objects in chicken meat thereby increasing the processor’s level of knowledge about his product. SensorX displays detected bones on a display terminal making for easy removal and, of course, safer, more consistent product quality.
