Marel Whitefish processing line
EUROPE (Western and Northern)
12 workstations
Remodeling of the line from 24 to 12 workstations in 2018
The whitefish line consists of three main modules: a trimming line with individual operator stations, a weighing unit and an outfeed unit with an optional quality control station.
The line is controlled by the M3000 Controller, and MPS production control software is used to collect production data, monitor performance, control raw material flow and generate production reports.
Whole whitefish fillets are distributed to the trimming stations on the line where they are trimmed. Specially designed receiving chambers receive the finished trimming fillets and gently push them onto a product conveyor belt that transports them on for further processing.
Each ergonomically designed trimming station on the Marel whitefish processing line is equipped with a work table and containers for products and trimmings. Each operator is monitored individually, which allows the introduction of personal performance systems.
The trimming line is controlled by the MPS Trimming module.
