摘要
In commercial pork grading practice, a government inspector inserts an approved grading probe into a designated spot on the back of a suspended carcass that is moving on an overhead conveyor in an abattoir. The spot is at 7 cm from the split edge of the carcass, in the intercostal area between the last third and the fourth ribs. The probe is inserted once on every carcass, at the rate of 800 carcasses/hour, in a medium sized abattoir. The work presented herein, describes an attempt to automate this labor intensive process.
