Aquatic Products

Metal contamination risks permeate throughout the aquatic products supply chain.

During harvesting, broken fishhooks, metal components from nets, or submerged wire fragments may become embedded in raw materials.

Transportation processes carry potential hazards from container parts or loading tool debris.

The most critical phase is processing - high-intensity operations of filleting machines, shellers, and other equipment generate wear particles, while aging stainless steel screens may shed microscopic metal fragments.

These contaminants not only pose oral laceration risks but may cause severe gastrointestinal perforations.

To ensure food safety, modern processing plants typically deploy metal detectors at three control points:

1.Initial screening upon raw materials intake.

2. Real-time monitoring during processing (especially post-cutting).

3. Final inspection before packaging or after packaging.

Taking frozen shrimp as an example, there are 12+ procedures including sorting, soaking, shelling, falsh-freezing, and weighing.

We can help with the metal contamination problem.

At present, many countries impose strict standards on aquatic product grading. Due to significant size and weight variations in aquatic, traditional manual sorting methods are inefficient and prone to errors.

 Automatic weight grading machine, which is aslo called weight sorting machine,  can precisely categorize products by weight, ensruing uniform sizing within each package while significantly improving efficiency.

These machines can be integrated seamlessly with washing, shelling, and packaging equipment, forming a fully automated production line.

Additionally, the systems records real-time distribution data for each batch, providing valuable insights for optimizing raw material procurement and production planning.

With adjustable parameters, the euipment can accommodate different products (e.g., shrimp, fish, shellfish) and be customized to meet specific customer grading requirements, offering flexibility to adapt to deliverse market demands.

We can help with this too.
