Objective IMF Measurement

Across the value chain

Our Marbl™ technology delivers fast, accurate, non-invasive measurement of intramuscular fat (IMF) across a range of applications including on-farm live animal assessment and in-line processing systems.

Lamb and Sheep Applications

inMR Measure is at the forefront of objective IMF measurement for lamb, with technology validated across both processing environments and live-animal trials. Our systems deliver consistent, real-time insights to support eating quality and value-based decision making.

Hot Carcase Grading

Marbl™ delivers automated IMF grading at chain speed, integrating seamlessly into processing lines. Available in single or twin-sensor configurations, the system provides real-time, non-invasive measurement without impacting throughput.

  • Objective carcase grading

  • Provide feedback to producers

  • Qualify products for markets

  • Optimise production efficiency

Live Animal Measurement

Marbl™ has been successfully applied to live-animal IMF measurement, enabling earlier insight into eating quality before processing. Trials in New Zealand have demonstrated practical, on-farm use, with ongoing work expanding across different breeds and production systems.
