Baader 221 Filleting Machine

• Processing pelagic fish species such as herring, mackerel, and sardines into fillets.
• Filleting trout and similar freshwater fish in aquaculture operations.
• Use in medium-to-large scale fish processing plants requiring high throughput.
• Preparation of fish for canning, smoking, or fresh distribution.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput typically ranges from 150 to 300 fish per minute, depending on fish size and species.

Power supply

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

Suitable feed sizes

Baader 221 machines are typically configured for fish sizes ranging from approximately 20 cm to 40 cm in length.

Water consumption

Significant water use is common for cleaning and processing, typically requiring a continuous supply.

Materials of construction

For hygiene and durability, components in contact with fish are typically made from food-grade stainless steel and plastics.

Footprint

A Baader 221, including infeed and outfeed, typically requires a floor space of approximately 4-6 metres in length and 1.5-2 metres in width.
