Marel has the know-how and experience, to go along with a full range of stand-alone equipment and integrated systems, to help fish processors respond to the fluctuating demands of their customers.  At this year’s Seafood Processing Europe exhibition, we will be conducting live demonstrations of a selection of our innovative concepts and individual equipment at Stand 6227, Hall 4.

Superchilled fish: Visitors will have the unique opportunity to experience a live demonstration of superchilling, an innovative process that allows for the core of the fish to be cooled without freezing the surface. The skin becomes firmer and there is very little damage to the fillets when they pass through the skinning machines. The outcome is a much more attractive product with greatly increased primary product ratio and shelf-life extended by at least 2 days.

Join us for superchilled drinks, directly from the Marel SuperChiller, during happy hour at 4:00 p.m. each day of the exhibition!

Salmon processing: We will demonstrate our latest equipment for filleting and pin bone removal equipment, as well our concept for intelligent portioning and automatic loading of pre-defined fixed-weight batches into trays. You will be amazed by our remarkable new fixed-weight salmon slicer, the GEBA SC125V, and the GEBA SC 250 D-cut slicer, the fastest slicer for fresh smoked salmon on the market.
 
Weighing, grading and batching: Visitors to Marel’s stand will see a wide range of proven applications to fulfil most seafood processors’ needs. For end of line processing, we will demonstrate our latest weigh price labellers, including the new OCM 9500 for heavy products, which automatically weighs, prices and labels boxes or crates at speeds of up to 40/min.

Freezing: We will display the Marel IQF spiral freezer, which operates on the vertical airflow principle. The IQF spiral significantly reduces energy consumption, results in less dehydration and equal temperature of products, and provides interconnectivity with SCADA and Innova.
 
Low-pressure forming: Our revolutionary RevoPortioner ensures consistent high quality portioning of fish products (whole muscle mass and dough mass) at low pressure. The structure and texture of the raw material is perfectly retained and the final products always have the same shape, weight and size, and uniform quality. Combine that with high process capacity, no leakage and very low maintenance costs and you will understand why the RevoPortioner is so successful.

Innova software: Last but not least, we invite guests to visit our Innova “control room” where we will display simulations of various applications from the production floor. You will get a good feel for how our Innova production management software monitors every step of the production process, enabling plant managers to make informed decisions about their operations.

We look forward to seeing you in Brussels!
