New automatic fillet handling solution

Marel South Africa Introduces new automatic fillet handling solution and connects FHF-XB and SensorX
One of Stork’s and Marel’s finest ‘integrated solutions’ is born

SensorXWith the introduction of the in-line automatic fillet handling solution, Stork Poultry Processing and Marel present a synergy of two great products. The completely redesigned SensorX system now works together in perfect harmony with FHF-XB, Stork’s filleting and de-boning system, and with downstream packing solutions.

Rodney Macer-Wright, General Manager, Marel SA says that this integrated solution is the new industrial benchmark for in-line, automated fillet processing. It ensures that yield is optimised still further and that quality will fully match customer specification and food safety considerations. At the same time it does this more cheaply with lower labor and product handling costs.

Stork Poultry Processing is represented in South Africa by B T Enterprises (BTE) and this combined solution also provides an excellent opportunity for both Marel SA and BTE to offer turnkey solutions, in this case a complete breast filleting line, to the South African Market.

“The SensorX solution has the ability to revolutionise the way that breast deboning and bone detection processes are currently conducted in South Africa” Macer-Wright adds.

“Marel has many solutions for poultry processing, which are readily available in South Africa, be sure find out about a poultry processing solution to suit your needs at the Marel stand at AVI Africa 2011, Emperors Palace, Gauteng, South Africa, 31 May-2 June, stand no 32/33” concludes Macer-Wright.
