Method and system for processing of food items

A system for processing food items, said system comprising:

• a conveyor extending to a batching apparatus and structured to provide at least a subset of said food items to the batching apparatus;
• at least one measurement device that measures, detects, and/or estimates data about each one of said subset of food items, wherein the measured, detected, and/or estimated data includes data relating to a weight determined for the respective food items;
• said batching apparatus including a robot that collects members of said subset of food items into batches in consideration of the measured, detected, and/or estimated data about each one of said food items;
• a controller that is programmed to identify, from said food items, particular food items that deviate from one or more predefined parameter(s) and/or particular food items that cannot be used during a batching process at said batching apparatus, wherein
• said robot performs said batching process in combination with the controller in a manner such that each batch of food items fulfils at least one predetermined criterion associated with that particular batch, such that said fulfilling of said predetermined criterion is established with respect to said measured, detected, and/or estimated data of the food items in the respective batches;
• and
• an arrangement that performs a different process on at least a subset of the particular food items such that the subset of the particular food items are processed differently than the batched food items to obtain processed food items.
