The installation of two Ishida X-ray inspection systems at the Rose Poultry factory in Skovsgaard, Denmark, has fully automated the previously-manual process of checking chicken fillets for bones and enabled up to ten operators to be redeployed elsewhere in the factory.rnRose Poultry is Denmark's largest manufacturer of chicken products for both the home and overseas markets and has one of the most advanced poultry processing plants in the world.rnChecking for small pieces of bones can be an arduous manual task with health and safety implications, owing to the repetitive nature of the work. The new Ishida IX-GA-2475 X-ray machines are now able to carry out the same operation automatically, detecting the smallest pieces of bone - at speeds of up to 160 fillets/min. As a result, this has meant five less people are needed on both of the production lines.
