INVESTING IN AUTOMATION
INGHAM'S
Always Good
AUTOMATED LEG DEBONING INVESTMENT
Network plan identified a reduction in whole leg and drumstick sales, and an increase in requirement for deboned thigh and
drumstick meat, which attract higher margins
Inghams currently utilises various semi-automatic processes to harvest leg meat - these processes are manually intensive
with limited throughput
$17M over two years to purchase four Foodmate Ultimate Leg Deboning machines
Replaces the current semi-automatic processes at three sites, and to create capacity for future demand
Installation planned for FY24
New system large variations in leg sizes, using an X-Ray measuring system to precisely measure each leg, automatically
adjusting in real-time, enabling precision cutting which ensures very high yields and minimum labour for trimming
Provides cost savings, higher yield and throughput outcomes, and improved product quality. Also provides opportunity to
increase production of other value-add products and new customer opportunities
