Overview
The Marel TargetBatcher is the easy way to reduce giveaway, combining a pre-determined number of fresh or frozen products into a package of exact weight.
With 7 high-accuracy individual scales and 14 holding bins the Target Batcher selects the best combination of products in the fraction of a second.
Food items ideally batched with the TargetBatcher include tuna steaks, shell-on tiger prawns, spare ribs, cutlets and whole chicken legs.
Reduces rework
In most packing processes, rework of under- or overweight packs becomes necessary to avoid penalties and giveaways. Rework is both labour intensive and time consuming, and the Marel TargetBatcher is an efficient and compact solution to most rework problems.
