Use cases

How do meat plants verify PPE on every shift?

ALIS, Maneva's AI Line Supervisor, checks that each person in a set area wears the PPE your plant requires, such as hairnets, gloves, bump caps and safety vests. When gear is missing, it can alert the supervisor right away, and compliance is tracked by area and shift.

What it catches

In each area of a meat plant, ALIS checks that every person wears what your plant requires there, such as:

Hairnets wherever product is open
Gloves at cutting, trimming and packing stations
Bump caps or hard hats
Safety vests around moving equipment
People entering an area without the gear it requires

Why spot checks miss it

A supervisor cannot watch every station every minute. Gloves come off for a moment, a hairnet slips, someone steps onto the floor from a break without the right gear. Spot checks catch a fraction of this, and paper records show that checks happened, not what the floor looked like the rest of the shift.

How it acts

ALIS checks each person against the PPE rules for that area, continuously. When required gear is missing, it can alert the supervisor right away, so the issue is fixed in minutes rather than found at the next audit.

Compliance is tracked by area and by shift, which turns PPE from a periodic check into a continuous record. Repeated gaps point to where training, layout or supply needs attention.

Where the cameras go

Standard cameras cover the entrance to production and the areas where PPE matters most, such as cutting, trimming and packing. Some plants can start with cameras they already have; many need at least one off-the-shelf camera placed for the task. Maneva helps choose the camera and where it goes.

Result

In deployments, ALIS has cut near-miss safety events by up to 50%. A food manufacturer used ALIS to make GMP and PPE compliance continuous instead of periodic. Read the customer story.

Frequently Asked Questions

Didn't find what you need? Our team will walk you through Video-to-Action AI and show how it fits your production environment.

Which PPE can it check on a meat line?

Hairnets, gloves, bump caps, hard hats and safety vests, or the gear your plant requires in each area.

Does it replace line supervisors?

No. ALIS watches every station continuously and alerts the supervisor, who decides what to do. It gives supervisors a complete record instead of occasional spot checks.

Do we need new cameras?

It depends on your site and the problem you want to solve. Some customers can start with the cameras they already have. Many need at least one new off-the-shelf camera placed and set up for the task, so the AI sees exactly what it needs to see.

Maneva helps you scope this from the start. We look at your line, the result you want, and what the camera needs to capture, then recommend the right camera and where to put it.

Maneva is hardware agnostic and connects to a wide range of camera types, including:

Standard RGB and security cameras for many quality, downtime, safety and efficiency use cases
3D and depth cameras for measuring volume, position and dimensions
Thermal and infrared cameras for heat signatures and low-light areas
Short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) cameras, which see through plastic to check seal integrity
High-resolution precision cameras for defects under a millimeter across large surfaces

If you can see it in the video, our AI can understand it and act on it. Start with one line, and we'll help you choose the setup that gets you there.
