Devices, systems, and methods for real-time food production are disclosed. Extrusion can include including evaluating and controlling one or more production devices to produce desirable food products. Evaluation can be performed by an evaluation system including a convolutional neural network to determine a bulk density value. Control can be performed by a machine learning model on the basis of the bulk density value. Control can include determination of real-time settings for production device parameters.

Devices, systems, and methods for virtual bulk density sensing

Devices, systems, and methods for real-time peeling are disclosed. Peeling can include including evaluating and controlling one or more peelers to remove peel from organic materials. Evaluation can be performed by an evaluation system including a convolutional neural network to determine a peel value. Control can be performed by a machine learning model on the basis of the peel value. Control can include determination of real-time settings for peeler tool speed and/or gate position.

A method and system for producing fried food pieces is disclosed. The food pieces are immersed in a first edible fluid as a product bed, monolayered, and immersed in a second edible fluid. The food pieces may also be drained in vertical orientation on a draining belt having at least one vertical orientation member.
