Meat Packing App for Custom Meat Processing & Billing

Key points

Every service per animal recorded and billed automatically.
Tablets at each station: weigh, knock, head, evisceration, inspection, rail, scale, pack, ship.
Recall by supplier, property, lot, date, invoice, animal ID, RFID or pallet.
Labels for boxes, inner packs, pallets and export.

Built for beef, bison, pork, lamb and goat

Customers submit cutting instructions – quarter, half or whole; roast sizes, steaks per pack, mince pack sizes – by the day the animal arrives. Mixed quarters usually receive a standard cut.

Pre-slaughter handling

Stress before slaughter causes PSE and DFD meat quality problems, especially in pork. Avoid mixing groups, keep animals cool with ventilation, avoid overcrowding, and allow water but withhold feed for 12–24 hours before slaughter. In the US, the Humane Slaughter Act governs handling, stunning and slaughter.

Fabrication with tablets

Low-cost tablet terminals show each team member where the carcase is in the process and record data at every station, so cut sheets are followed and every box links to its animal.

Traceability

Instant mock recalls trace to livestock supplier, property and establishment using lot, supplier, delivery date, invoice, inventory or animal number, RFID, pallet, customer reference or order.

Industry context

US meat packing is highly concentrated: as of 2019 the four largest companies controlled about 85 % of beef cattle slaughter, 67 % of pork packing and 54 % of broiler processing. Small and custom processors compete on service, flexibility and traceability.
