发明名称 Method and system for processing of food items
摘要 A method and system for the processing of items that are supplied to a batching apparatus, where the batching apparatus comprises at least one handling means of the robotic type. By means of the batching apparatus a first process is performed, according to which items are selectively batched in consideration of measured, detected and/or estimated data for the individual items and in consideration of at least one predefined criterion. Particular items are identified and led to another process, the particular items being items that are deviant in relation to one or more predefined parameter(s) relating to the batching and/or items that have not been selected to be batched during the first process.

主权项 1. A method of processing a plurality of food items that are supplied to a batching system, said batching system comprising at least one batching apparatus including at least one robot for handling at least a subset of said plurality of food items, said batching system for performing the method comprising the steps of: determining data relating to a weight of each one of the food items of the subset of food items; transporting said subset of food items to a location for performing a batching process using the batching apparatus; performing said batching process on the transported subset of food items at said location, said batching process including the step of selecting and batching, using said robot, one or more of the food items of said subset in consideration of measured, detected, and/or estimated data including said data relating to the weight determined for each one of the food items, wherein said batching process is performed in such a manner that each batch of food items fulfils a predetermined criteria associated with that particular batch, wherein said fulfilling of said predetermined criteria is established with respect to said measured, detected, and/or estimated data of the food items in the respective batches, and wherein said predetermined criteria includes a total weight of the food items provided in the respective batches; and wherein said method further comprises the steps of: identifying, from the plurality of food items, particular food items that deviate from one or more predefined parameter(s) and/or particular food items that have not been selected to be batched during said batching process; and performing a different process on at least a subset of the particular food items such that the subset of the particular food items are processed differently than the batched food items to obtain processed food items.
