An automated saw wherein: the automated saw comprises one or more visual sensors, a meat positioning assembly. The automated saw is configured to analyze an uncut meat and calculate one or more cutting depths for one or more cut portions from the uncut meat. The uncut meat comprises a first end and a second end. The first end of the uncut meat can be analyzed by the automated saw by: capturing a first slice image of the first end, locating a first bone configuration and a configuration of one or more meat portions in relation to the first bone configuration, and measuring portions of the one or more meat portions to categorize which among one or more cuts of meat is presented at the first end of the uncut meat. The automated saw calculates a first cutting depth for a first meat portion.

A machining system (2) for sawing a metal workpiece (4). The machining system (2) comprises a conveying assembly (6) configured to convey the workpiece (4) thereon downstream along a transport path (8) in the X-direction and a sawing assembly (10) arranged along the transport path (8). The machining system (2) additionally comprises a downstream clamping assembly (34) having a first and a second downstream clamping element (26, 30). The downstream clamping assembly (34) is decoupled from the rotatability of the band saw frame (14). Both the first and the second downstream clamping element (26, 30) are moveably arranged in an upstream and a downstream direction along the X-direction for transporting a sawn-off workpiece section (4b) away from the sawing assembly (10) in the downstream direction along the X-direction and the first downstream clamping element (26) is moveably arranged relative to the second downstream clamping element (30) in the upstream and the downstream direction along the X-direction.

A method for processing profile beam parts includes providing a machining station, an in-feed transport system, and an out-feed transport system. The method further includes transporting and in-feeding a first profile beam part together with a second profile beam part to the machining station, machining at least the first profile beam part in the machining station, out-feeding the first profile beam part with the out-feed transport system from the machining station to an intermediate position which is at a variable distance X from a discharge position between the machining station and the discharge position, and in-feeding the second profile beam part in the machining station with the in-feed transport system over a distance Y and simultaneously out-feeding the first profile beam part over the distance X from the intermediate position to the discharge position. The capacity of the system is improved with the method.
