Bovine muscle cutting method for industrial butter shop, involves exerting pressure on support with cutting device, and providing image sensor for laser rays reflected on muscle and placed outside laser plane

摘要

The method involves acquiring an image of a muscle, and modeling the muscle from the image. A cutting plane of the muscle is optimized from the model, and the muscle to be cut is positioned. A pressure in the muscle is exerted on a support with a cutting device. An image sensor is provided for laser rays reflected on the muscle and placed outside a laser plane. Elementary volumes occupied by the muscle or volumes in parallelepiped rectangle corresponding to a bar of material of the muscle are determined. An independent claim is also included for a device for cutting a muscle.
