Collaborative robots evaluation and deployment strategy development – stage 2 (1)

29 September 2022
Focus area: Hands-off processing
Program stream: Advanced manufacturing
Project number: 2021-1218
AMPC partnered with Intelligent Robotics (IR) to understand where collaborative robots may be deployed within the Australian red meat processing industry today and in the future.

As part of this project, IR looked at the use case of whole of pallet barcode scanning. Initial trials demonstrated that a collaborative robot could feasibly be used in a system to scan the barcodes on a pallet.

Following industry feedback, alternative applications were investigated including the marking of rib scribe lines on a carcase, the painting of rib scribe lines on carcase, and vacuum-packed primal pick and pack.
