Eagle FA3/M Fat Analysis System

Name: Eagle FA3/M Fat Analysis System
Brand: Mettler Toledo

The FA3/M system provides inline fat measurement and contaminant detection for fresh, hot-boned, chilled, and frozen meat. It offers consistent product quality for loose bulk flow, frozen or tempered meat blocks, and unwrapped meat in plastic crates.

Material No.: 3116297000

Inspect a Wide Range of Meat Types

Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) technology inspects beef, lamb and pork providing Chemical Lean measurements to better than +/- 1CL.

Boost Product Quality and Consistency

Make product flow adjustments with real-time weight, chemical lean (CL), protein, and moisture measurements to meet recipe targets.

Accurate Foreign Body Detection

Accurately detect physical contaminants of metal, glass, calcified bone, stone, and some high-density plastic and rubber for increased product safety.

Maximize Yields and Increase Profits

Reduce lean giveaway and fat claims with accurate chemical lean (CL) measurements of 100% of product throughput. FA3/M processes up to 2,400 plastic crates or 35 tons of bulk meat per hour.

Increase Product Safety

UPSHOT™ compact x-ray imaging geometry enables closer placement of the x-ray source and detectors to the product and scans the meat from the bottom. This further enhances contaminant and bone detection, as well as measurement precision.

Maximize Uptime with AUTOCAL™

A pushbutton calibration eliminates the need for bulky, unsanitary, and potentially unsafe calibration phantom blocks on the factory floor. Corrections for drift can be made, returning the system to a fully calibrated state in less than one minute.

Reduce Downtime with PRODUCT SWITCH™

PRODUCT SWITCH™ automatically adjusts inspection parameters while the line is running to make job changes seamless. Products with different inspection requirements can run on the same line without stopping production for a calibration switch.

Simplify Compliance Processes

Meet strict retailer specifications and food safety regulations with TraceServer™. The traceability software seamlessly records inspection processes and provides measures that can lead to corrective actions and greater documentation essential to compliance.

Designed for Hygiene and Built to Last

Hygienically constructed with a small footprint, the robust FA3/M adheres to the strict sanitary design standards of the meat industry and authorities like NAMI and NSF. With its strong IP69 rating, the system can withstand harsh wash-down environments.

Reduced Downtime with Expert Service

Achieve peak performance over the machine's lifetime with access to a regionally-based team of expert service technicians and network of global partners. Responsive onsite or remote diagnostics provide exceptional service support.
