Systems and methods for a food processing are provided. A food processing knockout assembly includes: a motor; a crank arm connected to the motor and configured to be rotated by the motor, around an axis that passes through the crank arm; a connecting arm connected to the crank arm and configured to move in a vertical direction in response to rotation of the crank arm; a beam connected to the connecting arm and configured to move in the vertical direction in response to movement of the connecting arm in the vertical direction; and at least one knockout shaft connected to the beam, at one end of the at least one knockout shaft, and configured to move in the vertical direction in response to movement of the beam in the vertical direction.

Servo knock out assembly

Food processing monitoring systems and method thereof are provided. A method includes obtaining first temperature data from a first temperature sensor at an inlet of a food processing machine; obtaining second temperature data from a second temperature sensor at an outlet of the food processing machine; obtaining current data from a current sensor that is configured to measure current of a motor of the food processing machine; determining presence of food product at the inlet based on a peak current, of the current data at a time the motor starts, being greater than a first current threshold; and logging a temperature of the first temperature data based on the peak current being greater than the first current threshold.

Food processing monitoring system

A system including at least one sub-system that includes a first actuator configured to control a supply of a respective energy; a power lockout system including at least one switch configured to open and close an electrical connection between a power supply and the first actuator; a body configured to move between a first position and a second position to open and close the electrical connection; and at least one processor configured to control, during a power down process, the first actuator of the each of the at least one sub-system to reduce the respective energy of the sub-system.

Lock out and tag out control system and method

A package and a method of forming the package, the package including a primary package; an inner package provided around the primary package; an outer package provided around the inner package and the primary package, such that an air gap is formed between the inner package and the outer package, the outer package including two bodies that are configured to surround opposite sides of the inner package, respectively; and a tape configured to seal the two bodies of the outer package together.

Custom packaging and process for forming the custom packaging

A saw with a monitoring and safety system that utilizes vision and sensors designed to provide user feedback on safety and training. The saw having a wheel formed of an anodized main body with a non-anodized surface extending along the circumference of the groove of the wheel. The saw having low inertial energy design to stop the blade without mechanically grabbing the blade assuring multiple points of safety detection and triggering. The saw having an automatic guard to protect the user from slipping and hitting the blade even when the saw is not running. The saw being connected to a cloud based system that enables a safer ecosystem and cross statistic sharing of safety parameters.

Method and apparatus to monitor and shut down production saw

Disclosed is a data logging apparatus comprising a mixer grinder which includes a tub configured to hold a product, a rotatable shaft, at least one mixing blade connected to the rotatable shaft, a grinding chamber, and a feed screw leading to a grinding head. The data logging apparatus includes a first temperature sensor attached to the tub, a second temperature sensor attached to the grinding chamber at an outlet downstream from the grinding head, a memory storing a predetermined temperature threshold, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive temperature data transmitted from the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor, determine whether an abnormality has occurred based on received temperature data and the predetermined temperature threshold, and issue an alert indicative of machine malfunction or maintenance issues.
