- Typical throughput
- For this class of equipment, throughput can range significantly, often processing hundreds to thousands of fish per hour, depending on the specific modules configured.
- Power supply
- Commonly found on units of this type, a three-phase industrial electrical supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz) is typically required, with varying amperage demands per module.
- Footprint
- A complete salmon processing line requires substantial floor space, typically spanning multiple metres in length and width, depending on the number and arrangement of integrated machines.
- Water consumption
- Significant water usage is typical for cleaning and processing, requiring robust water supply and drainage systems.
- Material construction
- Equipment in this category is generally constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Automation level
- Lines often feature high levels of automation for tasks such as de-heading, gutting, filleting, trimming, and portioning.
