- Typical throughput
- Units of this type commonly process several tonnes of fish per hour, depending on fish size and line configuration.
- Power supply
- Industrial processing lines typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage depending on motor count and size.
- Footprint
- A complete line with multiple processing stations and conveyors will require a significant floor area, typically spanning multiple rooms or a large open processing hall.
- Water consumption
- Processing lines for fish generally require a continuous supply of potable water for washing and conveying, with significant wastewater generation.
- Material construction
- Equipment for food processing is typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., AISI 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Maintenance requirements
- Regular cleaning, lubrication of moving parts, and inspection of blades and belts are typically required to ensure optimal performance and hygiene.
