The invention concerns a method of producing output wares of the highest possible quality from input wares, wherein the input wares being processed are optically scanned, brought to a target weight, and then formed into a shape suitable for packaging and/or further processing. The invention comprises using deep-frozen input ware, scanning the position, shape and size of the individual input ware by an optical scanning means with direct or indirect consideration of the fiber position of the tuna fish meat, calculating at least one cutting line through the input ware for the cutting off of a tuna fish cut having a desired target weight and/or a desired shape, wherein the calculation of the cutting line involves an optimization process, and cutting along the calculated cutting line in one cutting step.
