AI system with machine vision for automatic detection
The Client
Aggelakis, a leading poultry producer, faced significant loss that impacted production cost and efficiency. Together with Vector Security AI we implemented an innovative AI solution that automated detection and improved the offal‑removal process, preventing losses worth tens of thousands of euros annually while also reducing food waste.
The Challenge
During evisceration, operators had to separate the liver from the rest of the offal. The liver sells for about €1/kg, while the remaining offal is discarded. When the liver was not separated correctly, it was thrown away with the rest, creating substantial loss, around €100,000 annually, undetectable by traditional checks in real time.
The Solution
Vector Security AI installed a machine‑vision AI system that automatically detects when livers remain mixed with offal. On detection, the system records video and emails it to supervisors, who can see what happened, pinpoint the step where the error occurred, and act immediately. This early detection reduced losses and optimized raw‑material utilization, curbing food waste.
