TRIMSCAN™ is an advanced scanner for meat trimmings, for the control of fat and lean composition in the production of meat products. This system not only analyzes the fat content in meat batches, but also makes it possible to control the addition of fat or lean meat according to the established target fat percentage. Thus, it ensures that the mixture complies with the desired parameters and improves the quality of the final product.

Magnetic Induction Technology for Precise Measurement

TRIMSCAN™ uses a low intensity variable magnetic field to analyze the response of fat and lean tissues. This non-invasive process allows 100% of the product to be inspected, ensuring accurate measurements throughout the production process. Thanks to this technology, TRIMSCAN™ can measure in-line during production. This allows for automatic adjustments, adding more lean meat or more fat according to the defined target fat percentage.

Main Features of TRIMSCAN™

• Real-Time Measurement: The system continuously measures fat and lean percentage as the product moves through the production line. This provides instantaneous data and allows for quick decision making.
• Fat and Lean Addition Control: Based on the target fat percentage, TRIMSCAN™ can control the addition of more lean meat or fat in real time. This ensures that each batch meets the desired specifications.
• Metal Fragment Detection: In addition to measuring fat and lean, TRIMSCAN™ has the ability to detect metal fragments in the meat. This helps prevent grinder blade breakage, improving safety and processing efficiency.
• Integration with Dynamic Weighing: When combined with a dynamic weighing system, TRIMSCAN™ uses an intelligent algorithm to fuse weight data and magnetic response, ensuring accurate and reliable measurements.
• AISI 304 Stainless Steel Construction: The scanner is manufactured with corrosion-resistant materials, ensuring durability even under demanding working conditions.

Benefits for the Meat Industry

• End Product Standardization: With TRIMSCAN™, it is possible to produce meat with a consistent fat and lean composition. This improves quality and reduces batch-to-batch variability.
• Improved Production Efficiency: The system allows for real-time adjustments, optimizing production flow and reducing resource waste.
• Cost Reduction: Accurate measurements and the ability to adjust batches in real time help reduce operating costs, representing significant savings for meat processing plants.

TRIMSCAN™ Applications

TRIMSCAN™ is ideal for slaughterhouses and meat product processors who wish to improve composition control, increase the quality and standardization of their products and optimize their production lines. Thanks to its capacity to measure in real time, TRIMSCAN™ is an indispensable tool in the meat industry.
