During the first-processing stage, meat and poultry processors are employing precision cutting equipment for improved worker safety and ergonomics.
The meat and poultry industry is constantly challenged by the balance of fostering a safe yet productive work atmosphere during production. In particular, during the first-processing stage, cutting equipment such as pneumatic cutters and automatic slicers can be a key focus of worker-safety and ergonomic programs, as well as efficiency improvements, cost reductions, proper manning and increased chain speeds.
