INTELLIGENT GRADING SOLUTIONS WITH HIGH CAPACITY TO OPTIMIZE PRODUCTION AND YIELDS WITH AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM OF GIVEAWAY.

Value is added by cutting up the chicken into parts. The volumes of processed chicken in today’s slaughterhouses require high-performance, intelligent Grading Solutions. MARELEC has designed a wide range of options on infeed systems, weighing and sorting methods for all different kind of cutups that will meet the high demands of actual production requirements.

To ensure the maximum output from the smallest possible footprint, MARELEC designs dual-lane graders. Common batching bins bring the parts within the same weight range from both the upper and the lower lane into presentation trays or directly into boxes.

Printers can be installed in-between the stations to print labels with the production data. An exit conveyor delivers the boxes towards the end of the line.

SEPARATING STRIPS TO REDUCE LABOR WITH THE MARELEC STRIP SEPARATOR (STS)

Cutting cubes from chicken fillets adds a lot of value to your products. The cubes are the basis for various meals all around the world. It is essential to control the weight and shape of the cubes when producing fixed-weight packs for retail or food service. In order to be profitable, cubes must be cut at high volumes with minimum labor and maximum efficiency.

The development of the strip separator was the right step for MARELEC due to the increasing worldwide demand for cutting cubes. Cutting cubes with a MARELEC cube cutting line first involves a portion cutter that cuts strips from a fillet.

The strips are then singluated and alligned by the Strip Separator. Operators check for default and perform a quality check.

In third stage, the second portion cutter cuts fixed-weight cubes. The strip separator enhances the efficiency of the entire line. It reduces labor reduction and increases of throughput. Furthermore, it increases yield with a better-looking end-product because the strips are almost perfectly aligned. This alone makes it a worthy investment.

The first dual-lane PORTIO 1DAP will scan and cut the fillets into strips on both lanes. The intelligence of the first portion cutter ensures that the front and back trims are kept to a minimum. Depending on the size and shape of the raw material, the portion cutter will calculate where to make cuts to create the best-looking strips. Flattening the chicken fillets prior to cutting the strips will help to create a better looking strip. One benefit is that it increases the efficiency of the strip separator which means less work for the operators. 

The second PORTIO 1DAP is placed at 90° so the individual strips have the right orientation and cuts the strips into fixed-weight cubes. This portion cutter also uses its intelligence to cut at the highest yield possible.

With a constant and efficient infeed of the fillets, you will be surprised by how many ton per hour you can produce.

MARELEC Food Technologies has become a market leader with its PORTIO range. These portion cutters cut fresh meat or poultry into portions of fixed weight of fixed thickness. The machines use the proven technology of laser guided cameras to scan the volume. Knowing the density, the intelligence calculates instantly where to cut to make the portion with the programmed weight.

Production efficiency is guaranteed as the software always calculates to go to zero waste or maximum yield.

The MARELEC range has grown tremendously over the last years to accommodate all possible applications. We have Portion Cutters available that cut under an angle as well as dual lanes for high capacity portioning and a variety of wide belts to portion large meat products.

All MARELEC PORTIOs are designed for optimum cleaning and hygiene. The machines can be opened completely for easy access. Operating is easy to allow fast fine tuning of the programs. Options exist to calculate the density and to hold the products in place when cutting.

The PORTIO can be placed in line with a grader, to maximize the yields. In this case, the machine selects the optimal cutting pattern to reduce trim.

MAXIMIZING YIELDS WHEN CUTTING POULTRY FILLETS OR DEBONED LEG MEAT INTO PREDETERMINED SHAPES OF FIXED WEIGHT WITH THE MARELEC PORTIO JET.

The MARELEC PORTIO JET is a state of the art waterjet cutter based on more than 15 years successful experience in portioning. The waterjet cutter is designed to portion boneless poultry products such as chicken breast and boneless leg meat into predetermined customized shapes while maintaining fixed weights.

The PORTIO JET has been developed to maximize yields when cutting poultry fillets or deboned leg meat into predetermined shapes of fixed weight. The camera/laser combination scans to the highest accuracy, before the intelligent cutting algorithm calculates the optimal cutting pattern.

There is a list of predetermined cutting patterns programmed, from which parameters such as weight and size of the portions can be adapted. There is also a mode where the cutting pattern can be drawn on a scanned product to define specs.

Over 300 programs can be stored with a customized name, making it possible to switch cutting patterns within seconds. Multiple streams of products can be loaded next to each other on the 600mm/24” wide belt and work with multiple applications simultaneously.

Typical applications include cutting chicken fillets into fixed-weight portions, cubes or strips. Boneless leg meat can be trimmed down and portioned into fixed-weight portions, better known as steaks or thigh patty. Very popular patterns are strips or cubes, such as karaage, kakugiri or BLK.

The PORTIO JET is built in a modular way. It starts with the base module, in which all electronics, scanning and HMI are integrated. As standard, this base unit controls a module with two cutting stations. This combination is called PORTIO JET 2.

The standard unit can be extended into a series of modules, each with two high-pressure waterjet nozzles - up to four modules or eight stations in total. Thanks to the modular design, these extra stations can be added whenever your volumes require it.

The MATRIX J software collects all production data from the PORTIO JET, enabling it to generate production reports per shift or program and to trace changes at a machine level. MATRIX J software enables users to remotely create programs offline and monitor the machine status through an event log.
