Tech/Engineering - Livestock / Animal Husbandry | | English term or phrase: cylindrical needle shaft | | The xxxxxx works by ‘looking’ inside the carcass and recognizing the different ‘colours’ of the muscle, fat and connective tissues through which it passes. The ‘seeing’ mechanism is situated rearward of the blade within the cylindrical needle shaft and ‘looks’ out through a tough transparent resinous ‘window’. It consists of a light emitting diode with a specific spectral response, which shines out through the window into the tissue, and a light sensor, which measures the light, reflected back from the tissue. Changes in the intensity of reflected light indicate when the probe needle is passing through fat or muscle. A transducer within the body of the xxxx measures the distance the seeing mechanism travels relative to the surface of the carcass. From a single probing action, the xxxxxxx measures fat, muscle and total thickness with which it then calculates other results. Data collected from the muscle region such as colour and marbling are used to indicate meat quality. |
