Sizing of whole fish
For sizing, minimum batch and count jobs of whole fish
This solution is designed for the fish industry. It offers high capacity and perfect accuracy in the sizing of whole fish
Customer profile
Suitable for small, medium and large sized fish processing plants that require sizing, minimum batching and counting jobs for distribution to further processing companies. This is typically raw material that is iced continuously while packing in foodtainers, where there is a need for batch transfer results printed on labels.
Production
Suitable for harsh production environments, this solution efficiently sizes of whole fish e.g. cod, halibut, lobster, turbot and salmon with a maximum length of 900mm and a maximum of 15 kg.
Application
The system consists of a SP515 (SP510) Process Weigher in combination with a Scanvaegt Design Grader with chutes, that gently feed the whole fish into foodtainers. The system continuously accumulates the products’ individual weight. This weight is used for calculating into which portion and foodtainer the individual product must be sorted. Once a batch has been completed, the push button next to the gate will illuminate indicating a complete batch. This ensures that the portion always reaches the minimum weight. Once the gate has been emptied manually and the push button activated, a label detailing the content of the batch will be printed and the system will automatically start collecting for the next batch. The function may also be programmed as a piece count portion.

Dedicated sorting systems
Scanvaegt Graders are designed for the weight grading of whole fish, which are gently sorted into food containers, with batch results automatically transferred.
The SB520 is a high-precision batching system where every component has been optimized to deliver superior batching performance. This includes the design and materials of the weighing conveyor, which have been refined for greater accuracy and stability. The result is an efficient solution that minimizes give-away to an absolute minimum, thereby maximizing raw material yield.
Multi-purpose solution
The SB520 offers a fast, precise, and robust solution capable of handling a variety of applications, including:
Tolerance batching: Intelligent batching of products with variable weights into groups that meet a target weight and/or count, with upper and lower limits per batch to minimize give-away.
Minimum batching: Grouping products of variable weights into batches that meet a minimum target weight or count.
Sizing: Grouping products of variable weights into batches of uniform product weight.
The SB520 also supports a multi-program mode, allowing an advanced combination of all three applications—tolerance batching, minimum batching, and sizing—for maximum flexibility and performance.
