FISHTECS - 2025 FISHTECS Flowline/Trimming line

Applications & Use Cases

• Processing of various fish species into fillets or portions.
• Preparation of fish for further processing, such as smoking or packaging.
• Integration into larger fish processing plants for continuous workflow.
• Use in seafood factories and aquaculture facilities for post-harvest handling.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment commonly ranges from 500 kg/hour to 2,000 kg/hour, depending on product size and operator efficiency.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz.

Footprint

A 6-station line commonly requires a footprint of approximately 6-10 metres in length and 1.5-2 metres in width, plus access space.

Materials of construction

Equipment for fish processing is typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., AISI 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Water consumption

Cleaning and processing may involve significant water usage; typically, units are designed for easy washdown.

Throughput

The number of operators and the efficiency of the trimming process will dictate the overall throughput for this specific unit.
