Poultry slaughtering and processing is a highly automated process. That demands permanent monitoring all the various stages, in order to keep everything on the move under the highest possible quality standards. A useful tool for this purpose is a special bracelet to be worn by the workers. This enables precision processing for comprehensive digital management in the plant.
The demand for chicken meat and its further processed products is growing. This reality poses, among others, a specific challenge in the processing plant.
How to manage integrally and productively each of the different stages to achieve the following objectives are, among others:
- Reducing downgrades
- Increase yields
- Lowering operating costs
- Create a friendly work environment for the staff ensuring permanent well-being during the day.
- ALWAYS guarantee proper biosecurity conditions
- Ensure that all equipment and technical infrastructure works with the least possible downtime
The purpose of this article is to show situations which are already managed digitally in other sectors of the food industry. Its implementation in poultry processing, would allow those who manage the plants not to be physically worn out by permanently walking around each space in these facilities, in order to have a direct perception of the development of this activity. For further illustration, some cases that represent Great Challenges are presented.
Effectiveness of the sanitary conditions of the hands or gloves before entering the corresponding section
The staff strictly follows the procedure for washing and disinfecting hands. However, during the tour, after passing through the station where they brush and clean their boots, some may fall to the floor. What do you usually do? The worker picks it up but does not re-disinfect his hands and/or gloves. The use of a special bracelet prevents him from accessing his work area because a part of his body is contaminated.
Compliance with Biosafety Standards to avoid problems due to cross-contamination 
Special bracelets are operationally similar to Electronic Cards, which are used in many hotels. In processing plants, we must guarantee that the personnel can only enter their workplace once they have passed the security lanes.
