Meatingplace Magazine / Alt-Meat Magazine
Automation has been part of the U.S. manufacturing industry since the 1930s and an increasingly prominent factor in food manufacturing in more recent decades. Our MeatingPod guest is Steve Mustard, who has more than 35 years of experience in automated systems. In this episode, he'll cover some of that history and provide insights on how meat processors today are successfully integrating automation into their operations. Mustard – an independent consultant and expert at the International Society of Automation – also will outline the integration of Artificial Intelligence to enhance these systems, influencing processing, warehousing and even food safety.
