The HAM Inspector II™ is an advanced magnetic scanner designed for the meat industry. This tool accurately measures fat and salt content in various meat cuts, including ham, shoulder, and bacon. With the HAM Inspector II™, users can effectively classify meat based on its weight and fat content.

Thanks to its high precision, the HAM Inspector II™ allows for fat prediction with an error less than 1% and salt content determination with an accuracy of less than 0.1%. This device is essential for producers of cured meat products seeking to enhance efficiency through precise raw material classification and real-time monitoring of the salting process.

In processing facilities, the HAM Inspector II™ plays a crucial role in standardizing batches by reliably classifying the fat content of raw materials. When producing cured ham, the HAM Inspector II™ optimizes both salting and curing processes.

Additionally, the HAM Inspector II™ integrates with HAM Brain, our AI software that automates the modeling, optimisation, and control of the cured ham production process. This contactless inspection method, developed in partnership with IRTA and SSICA, analyzes the response of fatty and lean tissues to a low-intensity magnetic field.

Compact and easy to integrate, the HAM Inspector II™ supports continuous production analysis, handling up to 1,200 pieces per hour. By employing the HAM Inspector II™, you not only streamline your production processes but also comply with food safety and quality regulations.
