Massive chicken de-boning machine pulls 1500 breasts per hour

Chicken Deboner

Science has been solving life’s little problems for centuries, but one task that has remained manual over the years has been chicken breast de-boning. While it may sound like a simple task, the accuracy required to make shallow cuts and clean off the bones efficiently has eluded us…

…until now.

It can process 1,500 chickens per hour, approximately 10X as quickly as doing it manually.

According to Atsushi Suzuki, assistant manager for Mayekawa Mfg., “The most important thing in removing chicken meat from bones is the process of making shallow cuts. It recognizes images taken by the camera and changes the depth and location of the cuts for each chicken.”

While this may seem like mundane technology, watching it reveals that the process is strangely fascinating. Enjoy.
