Turkey cut-up at a robust and safe level

As industry trends show, turkeys are getting heavier and processing capacities continue to increase. Equipment must be built to handle tougher conditions. That means greater product weights at higher line speeds. At the same time, safety regulations evolve with this trend, demanding more robust solutions. JBT Marel has responded to these challenges with the newly designed ACM-T cut-up system. It is engineered for performance and durability in today’s high‑capacity processing environments and its modules can efficiently cut up to 2,000 turkeys per hour into wings, breasts, legs, drumsticks, and necks.

The metal structure of the ACM-T has been reinforced to comply with the most stringent technological regulations. Aluminum is not used; all metal components are made of stainless steel, improving the stability, reliability and longevity of the equipment.

The mesh fencing also creates a closed environment that prevents access to the modules and avoids unintentional operator interference. It complies with the latest CE regulations and safety requirements for processing environments. This means the fencing extends all the way to the floor, instead of leaving an open space between the floor and the bottom of the equipment.
