Cooperl’s OptiSort system brings 3D scanning to the hog industry, but it’s more than a way to weigh pigs — it’s a more-efficient system to manage finishing pig flow. Cooperl is a French farmers’ pig processing co-operative that also invests in technology that makes pig production more efficient for farmers and produces the data needed to make its processing operations run optimally. The German OptiSort technology is a good example. It was brought into the company when Cooperl purchased H+L.
