Pisces FR75 Filleting Machine

• Used in fish processing plants for high-volume filleting of various fish species.
• Suitable for operations requiring consistent and precise removal of fish fillets.
• Utilised in facilities processing farmed fish like trout and salmon, as well as wild-caught species such as ocean perch and red snapper.
• Integrated into production lines for fresh, frozen, or smoked fish products.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput can vary significantly based on fish size and operator efficiency, but units often process several dozen fish per minute.

Fish size range

Units of this type commonly handle fish from approximately 300g up to 4kg, allowing for versatility across different species.

Construction material

Filleting machines in food processing are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with specific amperage depending on the motor size.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning and sanitation are essential. Periodic checks of blades, belts, and bearings are typically required to ensure optimal performance.

Footprint

The footprint for a filleting machine of this capacity can vary, but buyers should anticipate a length of 2-3 metres and a width of approximately 1 metre, plus space for access.
