A system and a method are provided for deskinning and/or defatting animal carcass while being conveyed by an overhang rails system carrying the carcass. The method includes: sensing, by a sensing device, an incoming animal carcass, using the resulting sensing data from the sensing device by a control unit in controlling a movement of a first device while deskinning and/or defatting the carcass by the first device. The controlled movement includes: setting the first device to an initial angular position and engaging the skin and/or fat of the incoming animal carcass at an engaging position; moving the first device in a movement direction including a movement direction perpendicular to the conveying direction along the animal carcass while following an outer profile of the surface of the carcass and simultaneously adapting the angular position of the first device to the shape of the carcass for partial removal of skin or fat.

A method and system of removing meat from a bone of a carcass leg part, includes the subsequent steps of: a) holding, by a support device, of the leg part, b) moving a meat removing device: into a pre-cut, c) then away from the support device along the bone to a first end position so that meat is removed from the bone, d) then away from the bone, forcing meat away from the bone and severing further meat from the bone, e) then towards the support device, f) and then towards the bone, g) and then again away from the support device along the bone to a second end position distanced further from the support device than the first end position so that further meat is removed from the bone.
