Whilst we all struggle to get back to the day job and the time zone, we can’t help but reminisce on all the great places we’ve been. Taylor Farms kindly hosted us at their food service packing facility in Salinas. Illustrating incredible scale and focus on robotics and automation. Added to the fact that Taylor farms moves half of the manufacturing equipment to Arizona for half the year to follow the seasonal supply, showing inspirational focus on supply chain resilience. #nextgenfruitgroup #saladpacking #freshproduce #salinas #california

🤖🍖 Embracing Innovation in Meat Processing 🍖🤖 In Denison, Iowa, the future of meat processing is taking shape as robots are increasingly joining the workforce at plants like Smithfield Foods. These robots, slicing hog carcasses for hours on end, not only contribute to producing more ribs but also address the long-standing labor shortages plaguing the U.S. meat industry. Smithfield's adoption of automated rib pullers not only enhances efficiency but also mitigates the physically demanding nature of certain tasks, allowing workers to transition to roles like food-quality inspection. Keller Watts, Chief Business Officer at Smithfield, highlights the company's commitment to repurposing its workforce, aiming to reassign around 500 employees annually. This move towards automation isn't about replacing workers but about streamlining processes, enhancing safety, and reducing costs. High turnover rates in meatpacking plants make reassigning workers to more skilled positions a logical step forward. Across the industry, major players like Tyson Foods are investing billions in automation to optimize operations, from processing to packaging. Tyson's cutting-edge facility in Danville, Va., is a testament to this shift, producing more with fewer personnel, all while prioritizing efficiency and quality control. As the U.S. meat industry faces profitability challenges, automation emerges as a critical solution, promising not just cost savings but also improved productivity and sustainability. With innovation at the forefront, the future of meat processing looks promising, blending human expertise with technological advancement for a more efficient and resilient industry. 🚀🥩 #MeatProcessing #Automation #Innovation #Smithfield

A glimpse of some of the automation we can do for your packing facility. I am happy to make the introduction to Ian Sellers, who can discuss a project of any size - from just a small bulk packaging fill to a full facility redesign. ....and if you look closely, you can see the Girplus Classic still working! (8 minute mark of video)
We bet you will be amazed by how automated this Cheste Agraria packing house is. And let's be honest - the robots by Serfruit S.A. and Grup Giró are pretty cool! https://lnkd.in/e2YwNEjy

Daves Benes, our founder and a farm-grown innovator, learned the art of improvisation and creativity early on. On the farm, the nearest store wasn't a quick trip away, and when things broke, replacement wasn't an option. Dave was forced to find solutions with whatever was at hand, often in the most unexpected places. This commitment to collaboration, integrity, and innovation is what sets Fremont Automation apart in the meat processing industry. By bringing their ‘homegrown innovation’ to every project, we’re not just changing the way food facilities operate; we’re redefining what’s possible in manufacturing process automation. It’s this that propels Fremont Automation forward, driving the industry toward efficiency, sustainability, and innovation. #FarmInnovation #HomegrownInnovation #CollaborativeSpirit #IntegrityDriven #IndustryLeadership #FoodProcessing #ManufacturingAutomation #EfficiencySolutions #SustainabilityGoals #InnovationLeaders #FremontAutomation

Which is better A or B; Find both posts on my page and vote which you like better! A: Have you ever stopped to think about the ingenuity of the Scott Poultry Trusser? I mean, who looked at a #trussing line and thought, 'You know what these people need? A robotic trussing device!' It's like they're saying, 'Let's give these birds some style before they hit the oven.' But seriously, have you seen this thing in action? It's like a choreographed dance for poultry. You got chickens lining up, getting all snug on their little trussing shackle, like they're prepping for a spa day. And the best part? They come out looking like they're ready for the cover of a gourmet cookbook. It's like the fashion industry meets the poultry world. Who knew trussing could be so chic? #ScottPoultryTrusser #ChickenFashion Written with AI to add some fun to your day! In the style of Jerry Seinfeld. #IPPE #ScottAutomation #PoultryTrusser #GetYourBeakWet #CluckingGoodTime #TrussUpTheProfits #LeaveTheCompetitionFeathered #IPPE2024 #PoultryAutomation #ScottAutomation #B43053 #EX3314 #SCOTT #TrussingMachine #Innovation #poultryindustry #poultryprocessing #rotisseriechicken #operations #robotics #foodprocessing #foodprocessingequipment #Trussing #laborshortage #labormarket #meatindustry #IPPE2023 #chicken
