New X-ray analyzer from FOSS can save meat producers thousands of dollars per day
FOSS announces MeatMaster II, a second-generation X-ray analyzer that makes it easier than ever for meat producers to measure the fat content of entire batches of meat and at the same time check for foreign objects.
The new MeatMaster comes after 10 years of supplying X-ray analysis to the meat industry with over 100 installations of the 1st generation MeatMaster at major meat producers around the world. Typical payback time has been found to be less than a year and case studies show savings of at least around $3000 per day. The savings are made through the more rational use of raw materials with the continuous X-ray test results helping producers to get exactly the right fat/lean mix in their products. This leads both to improved yield and more consistent quality.
