Sorting Challenge – Seafood

Shrimp and prawn processors are very much aware of their product quality and the defects they want to remove. Typical steps in the process are receiving, peeling, deveining, cooking, cooling, sorting and filling. During the sorting process, typical defects like tails, heads, fish and some foreign materials need to be removed.

 

Visys offers a state-of-the-art optical solution for the digital sorting of shrimps and prawns. The combination of advanced mechanics, electronics, software and optics makethe Visys' devices the most efficient systems for seafood.
Rejected product can be sent back to the peelers for “re-peeling” and subsequent re-sorting. Difficult contaminants like small fish or unpeeled products are removed accurately. Our open machine design and the absence of hand labor is in line with stringent cleaning procedures and avoids thereby the presence of critical bacterial contamination points.

 

Scallops arrive in the processing facilities in packed and sealed bags or crates in fresh condition. After emptying them into a hopper, a splitter inserts a knife to open, an cuts out meat and roe. Sometimes the product is contaminated by pieces of shell, discolorations and other sealife. After sorting, the product is sold fresh or IQF frozen. As with the schrimps and prawns, Visys NV offers the ultimate platform for adding sorting value to this product. A superb removal of typical defects and the lowest false reject levels are not only commercial slogans but become reality when applying Visys NV sorting equipment.
