Overview
Marel introduces the Farmed Fish Packing Solution for fast and efficient grading and batching into fixed-weight packs. A task-specific solution at the right price.
Marel’s Farmed Fish Packing Solution packs to such an accurate fixed target weight that increased yield alone ensures a fast return on investment.
It’s the value-adding solution for handling small, whole fish such as tilapia, trout, sea bass and sea bream, with a capacity of up to 125 fish/minute.
Combined with the Innova Grading module, total feedback reporting of the packing and grading process is available in real time.
Packing process:
Whole small fish are fed into the grader individually via a high precision flowscale, weighing each piece individually in a continuous stream. Predefined weight grades are directed to the different gates and collected in holding bins. When a batch is completed, the holding bin closes and the next batch is collected.
As a batch is being generated, operators pack fish into boxes on the packing table. The operator pushes the completed box to the takeaway conveyor.
