Marel CBF495 Deep Skin Salmon Skinner

• Commercial salmon processing facilities for efficient skin removal.
• Fish processing lines requiring deep skinning capabilities for improved yield.
• Seafood factories preparing salmon fillets for retail or further processing.
• Operations focused on high-value salmon products where skinning precision is critical.

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment is typically in the range of several hundred to over a thousand kg per hour, depending on fish size and operator efficiency.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with specific amperage requirements varying by motor size.

Skinning width

The stated 630mm belt width indicates suitability for a wide range of salmon sizes, accommodating larger fillets.

Skinning method

Deep skinning machines like the Marel CBF495 are designed to remove the skin with minimal meat loss, often leaving a clean, fat-free surface.

Material construction

Typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., AISI 304 or 316) for hygiene, durability, and corrosion resistance in wet processing environments.

Water consumption

These machines often utilise water for cleaning and lubrication during operation; typical consumption varies but is a factor for facility planning.

• What is deep skinning and why is it beneficial?

  Deep skinning removes the skin along with a thin layer of fat, resulting in a leaner product and often a higher yield of usable meat compared to shallow skinning. This method is particularly valued for salmon.

• Is this machine suitable for other fish types?

• What maintenance is typically required for a fish skinner?

• Are spare parts readily available for Marel equipment?

• What footprint does a machine of this size typically require?

Fish skinning machines are valued for automating labour-intensive processing tasks. Industry users typically appreciate models offering consistent results and reliable performance over time. When purchasing used equipment, buyers should examine blade condition, motor functionality, and overall mechanical wear. Key strengths include reduced processing time and improved safety compared to manual skinning. Operators note that proper maintenance and calibration directly affect output quality and longevity.
