carcass cutting system, method for making a carcass cut, carcass imaging system and method for carcass imaging

摘要

It is a carcass cutting system that includes a belt positioned below a conveyor belt to stabilize a carcass during imaging and / or cutting operations. a conveyor rail offset section in the belt region may be used to propel the housing against the belt. The imaging may use an optical imaging system, an x-ray imaging system, a laser scanning camera, a flight time camera or a dual energy x-ray absorptiometry system. Imaging information can be used to calculate cutting paths and / or carcass portion weight distribution. Cutting can be performed by a robotic cutter using a circular saw or a circular knife.
