Paw recovery system for poultry processing
In poultry processing, precise tracking and rejection of chicken paws is crucial to ensure compliance with USDA/NPIS standards. Missing a defective paw can lead to contamination and quality control issues on the production line.
Automate rejection and track compliance
The Paw Recovery System from JBT Control Systems is designed to precisely track chicken paws after evisceration, enabling automatic rejection of defective paws. Sensors linked to the picking and evisceration lines monitor each paw, automatically routing it to the reject gate if a bird is flagged. The system allows setting custom limits to discard additional paws before and after a flagged set, adding a layer of failsafe protection. Operators can also manually reject paws via a push-button, accommodating routine tests by USDA inspectors. Comprehensive reporting features track the number of flagged and rejected paws, ensuring efficiency and compliance. This system is particularly relevant for industries involved in poultry, meat, and seafood processing.
