    𝗬𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝟰 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗼𝘅𝗺𝗲𝗲𝗿 How do chicken fillets get to the supermarket? How are chicken nuggets made? Most young people don’t know. On Friday, June 20, a group of teenagers from Cel 4 (an organization that helps young people find their place in society) got the chance to find out. Guido Kusters, a Software Engineer at Marel and a volunteer at Cell 4, took the group to the JBT Marel factory in Boxmeer, the Netherlands, for a short and inspiring tour. Guido and other Marel employees explained how the food processing machines are built, tested, and shipped. The teenagers were surprised and impressed. Some of their comments were: 🗣️ “I never knew all this went into it.” 🗣️ “Impressive.” 🗣️ “Amazing to see.” The visit showed the group the many jobs available in technology. It helped open their eyes to new opportunities. A big thank-you to Frank, Guido, and everyone at Marel for making this possible! #youthdevelopment #technologytour #JBTMarel #foodprocessing #careerawareness #cell4 #futuretalent #boxmeer #communityinvolvement #technology #poultryprocessing

    Marel’s Infeed Monitoring for SensorX is a game-changer for poultry processors—tackling a key challenge in bone and contaminant detection: unnecessary rejects caused by poor product positioning. 🦴 While SensorX accurately detects hard contaminants, misaligned or closely packed pieces can lead to collateral rejects, unnecessary trimming, and lost yield—even when no bone is present. ✅ Infeed Monitoring provides real-time insights into infeed quality, helping operators improve product placement before it impacts performance—boosting yield and efficiency. Say goodbye to unnecessary rejections—and hello to smarter, more efficient processing! 📊 Learn how Infeed Monitoring can optimize your bone detection systems and reduce waste: #JBTMarel #FoodProcessing #FoodIndustry #FoodInnovation
