direct FOOD
Meat cutting and deboning
- Provides full traceability from carcass to batch
- Links carcass data directly to production and batch
- Delivers continuous overview of cuts and by-products
- Integrates measurement data in meat cutting and deboning for precise follow-up
- Strengthens the data foundation in direct FOOD for quality and post-calculation
Provides control from animal registration to the finished product. Information is linked directly to production orders and batches, ensuring traceability, accurate follow-up and improved raw material utilisation.

Meat cutting and deboning with full traceability from carcass to batch
By scanning the carcass label, animal data is recorded and linked to the correct production order and batch number. Country of origin, slaughterhouse and other key data follow the raw material through the system as part of a continuous traceability chain. The carcass number is associated with a unique manufacturing run, ensuring that measurements, production details and any deviations are documented and can be reviewed later.
Production oversight and raw material utilisation
direct FOOD offers continuous visibility of output at each workstation, whether processing cattle or small ruminants. Produced volumes are recorded in real time, providing an accurate overview of primal cuts, semi-finished products, meat grading and by-products. This allows for better control of raw material utilisation and manufacturing performance throughout the process.

Measurement data and on-floor registration
Close integration with scales, labelling systems and applicators ensures that data is collected directly at the point of processing. Data from equipment that measures fat content and detects foreign objects is automatically linked to the relevant production order and batch. This helps maintain high accuracy, reduces manual handling and improves documentation.
Data foundation in direct FOOD for quality and post-calculation
All registrations are stored in a structured format and accessible for analysis, audit and follow-up. The data foundation provides accurate documentation for managing deviations and can be used directly for post-calculation and profitability assessment. As part of the direct FOOD by AMS AS , meat cutting and deboning are designed for industrial meat processing.
The meat cutting and deboning solution is designed for slaughterhouses and industrial meat processing operations where traceability, measurement data and operational control are crucial.
