HÅ Kylling enhances production efficiency with direct FOOD
HÅ Kylling AS has consolidated planning, data capture, weighing, labelling, palletising and traceability into one solution with direct FOOD from AMS AS. With machines and equipment directly connected to the system, the poultry producer gains integrated and accurate control of the entire food manufacturing process from intake weighing to finished product.
The company has taken clear steps forward with direct FOOD, which is now used to plan the full manufacturing day. The system makes it easy to define what should be produced, in what order, and on which lines. This ensures that manufacturing is accurately organised from the start and reduces the need for manual clarifications throughout the day.
Operator panels and manufacturing overview
In daily operations, our operator panels give staff access to raw materials and material registration, recipes, yield weighing, and label printing. Large dashboards on the manufacturing floor display order status, work in progress and capacity, allowing both operators and management to see what is happening in real time. When adjustments are needed, they can be made immediately without stopping manufacturing.
Integrations and traceability across the entire line
direct FOOD is integrated with applicators, scales and vision systems at hå kylling. When a product is weighed or labelled, data is transferred directly into the system without manual data entry. This provides accurate values and full traceability throughout the entire manufacturing process, from raw materials to finished products. In dispatch, products are scanned and palletised using pda devices before the data is forwarded to Visma Net.This gives correct stock information and ensures that every pallet is properly registered before leaving the facility.

About HÅ Kylling
HÅ Kylling AS is an operating company jointly owned by Nortura SA and Jæder AS. The company’s purpose is to cut, process and dispatch chicken products for our owners, using raw materials supplied by Nortura’s producers in the local Jæren area. Our facilities are located in Kviamarka in Hå municipality and our products are supplied to the professional and industrial markets throughout Norway.
Efficient and sustainable manufacturing of quality chicken
Our owners place the orders for the different chicken products. We manufacture and pack chicken breast, thigh fillets and inner fillets. Some products are marinated, some are frozen, and some are packed fresh.
The slaughterhouse, Nærbø Kyllingslakt, is located next door to our manufacturing facility, which means we receive fully chilled chicken “online” only a few hours after slaughter. This not only improves product quality but also contributes to a more sustainable manufacturing process.
