A drive unit, once energized, moves the carriage and multiple drill sampling unit inward or outward by means of a cylinder/piston arrangement connected to the frame at one end and to the carriage at the other. A second motor drive unit drives the multiple drill bits. Means is provided for catching and directing the extracted meat samples to a container situated beneath the sampling drill bits and which moves inward and outward with the carriage as it moves on the support frame.
