About this module

Full control from grading station to dispatch

Emydex Carcass Management software is currently operating in over 40 meat processing plants around the world.

The system handles the processing of animals from the kill line grading station through to disposal via into-boning, dispatch or write-off.

It can be used as an add-on to the Emydex kill line module to complete the abattoir cost centre, or as the intake for deboning plants.

Real-time carcass stock inventory
Improve efficiency and accuracy of third party carcass intake by using ASNs
Intelligent carcass modelling with splitting engine, e.g. quartering and beyond
Reduce labour by integrating to PLCs to handle automatic chiller and rail sortation
Configurable carcass destinations
Reduce operator error by utilising carcass filters for into boning and dispatch
Emydex Carcass Management Features

Six capabilities. Full visibility from grading to dispatch.

Configurable across plants, environments and operational requirements. Click any feature to explore.

  • Chiller Assessment
    Real-time chiller assessments, captured on handheld devices.
  • Carcass Modelling & Carcass Splitting
    Model cut configurations and derive weights automatically.
  • Carcass Intake
    Weigh, label and capture traceability data as carcasses arrive.
  • Carcass Dispatch
    Dispatch against sales or transfer orders, with flexible weighing options.
  • Into Boning
    Prioritise and track de-boning work orders for traceability and yield.
  • Filter Rules
    Stop product mix-ups and downgrades before they happen.
Chiller Assessment
Chiller Assessment
Real-time chiller assessments, captured on handheld devices.

Complete your chiller assessments using Emydex handheld devices. Scan the carcass ticket and update details such as PH decline, marbling and meat colour for real-time reporting.

Carcass Modelling & Carcass Splitting
Carcass Modelling & Carcass Splitting
Model cut configurations and derive weights automatically.

The Emydex carcass modelling and splitting engine can be used to model carcass cut configurations and derive the parts of the remaining cuts of a carcass based on the parts of the cut removed. This feature can also be used to calculate derived weights and update carcass stocks.

Carcass Intake
Carcass Intake
Weigh, label and capture traceability data as carcasses arrive.

Intake carcasses or quarters into the factory with the ability to weigh, label and capture the required traceability data. Increase intake efficiency and accuracy by using Advance Shipping Notes, and send intake details to the ERP for payment processing.

Carcass Dispatch
Carcass Dispatch
Dispatch against sales or transfer orders, with flexible weighing options.

Dispatch carcasses or quarters against sales orders to a customer or transfer orders to another plant within the organisation. Choose to weigh at dispatch to capture chiller shrink and cold weight, or use the weight assigned on the kill line with a calculated reduction.

Into Boning
Into Boning
Prioritise and track de-boning work orders for traceability and yield.

Create work orders for de-boning requirements and allocate batches against into boning transactions for traceability and yield reporting. Use the work orders to prioritise the de-boning sequence of livestock categories, and capture the cold weight to measure chiller shrink or use a calculated cold weight to measure the input for yield reporting.

Filter Rules
Filter Rules
Stop product mix-ups and downgrades before they happen.

Ensure operators are not mixing product by validating the input of a carcass against configurable filter rules, for example organic or halal versus non-organic or non-halal. Ensure operators are not downgrading product, for example by scanning prime stock into manufacturing runs.
