Abstract (en)

A size-dependent automatic meat packaging system that allows the automatic cutting and distribution onto trays of slices obtained, so that all of the trays obtained have a similar and homogeneous distribution by size of the slices held in the trays; having for this purpose a number of belts (1) onto which the trays are placed; above these belts there is another belt (2) onto which the product to be sliced, using a cutting knife (5) positioned at its end, is placed; the tray support belts (1) having a forward or backward movement, whereas the other belt (2) has a transverse movement over the previous belts (1); furthermore the system has means of artifical vision (11) that quantify the surface area of the new slice to be obtained in mm<2>, the system deciding onto which of the trays of each belt to place it. <IMAGE>
