High-precision automatic nugget-by-nugget and breast strips scanning that recovers over 30% more nuggets from trim than manual labor, significantly reducing labor and improving plant efficiency. 

Laser Imaging & AI

The Smart Sorter uses laser imaging, computer-vision algorithms and AI to inspect, singulate, and sort chicken nuggets and breast strips.

Improved Consistency

It improves consistency and quality, lowers costs, and makes the process repeatable.

Revolutionize Nugget Sorting

Dramatically improve quality, while reducing labor costs. 

Business Intelligence

Have a much deeper understanding of exactly what was processed in real-time, and have the data at your hands to make decisions to maximize their profit per pound.

Nugget and Breast Strips harvesting and trim recovery (grading) processes are labor-intensive

The use of labor leads to many significant challenges for poultry processors: 

  • High turnover, Absenteeism, High labor costs.

Using labor in the current Trim recovery (grading) process leaves 25% to 35% of high-value Nuggets on Trim.

The Opportunity 

Annual savings of $1.2M-$4.5M per year

*Assuming a nugget volume of 4,200 lbs/hr.
