American meat producer Tyson Foods has opened a facility in Springdale, Arkansas, to develop more automation and robotics for its food production plants.

Tyson Manufacturing Automation Center (TMAC) will be used to develop manufacturing solutions. It will offer space for collaboration with the company’s IT team and equipment suppliers.

It will also be used for training team members to use new technology.

Tyson Foods president and CEO Noel White said: “Innovation has been a fundamental part of our success for almost 85 years.

“This facility represents our commitment to creating the next generation of manufacturing solutions through advanced automation, robotics and machine learning.”

The new two-storey, 26,000ft² facility comprises four main areas, including a machine vision technology lab, as well as a lab for creating a food production environment, training classrooms and a designated area for team members to receive training on automation and robotics technology.

The company said that the TMAC is part of its continuous improvement efforts and focus on workplace safety.

Over the last five years, Tyson Foods has invested $215m in automation and robotic technologies.

Tyson Foods engineering director Doug Foreman said: “The key to TMAC’s success will be the collaboration of world-class talent bringing expertise from all aspects of processing.

“Their skills and the resources within this facility will allow us to create solutions that will make a difference in the lives of our team members and create value for our business.”
