Onboard Seafood Processing Factory Upgrades

Upgrading ship factories with modern seafood processing systems can significantly improve efficiency, product quality, and crew safety.

Whether you are enhancing an existing seafood processing factory or transitioning from one facility to another, integrating advanced automation solutions can boost productivity and profitability.

Advantages of Factory Ship Automation

Increased Efficiency and Speed in Processing

A well-automated seafood processing factory ensures faster production rates with minimal downtime. For instance, upgrading with shrimp processing machines, shrimp processing equipment, and shrimp processing lines allows vessels to handle large volumes more efficiently.

By automating tasks like shrimp sorting and freezing, the production process becomes faster and more streamlined.

Automation in factories also enables seamless transitions between fish and shrimp processing. With flexible seafood processing technology, adjustments can be made swiftly to accommodate different species, minimizing production delays and maximizing throughput.

Improved Product Quality and Consistency

Automated systems ensure precise control over seafood processing, enhancing product consistency. Advanced shrimp processing technology, combined with things such as automated fish grading machines and shrimp graders, maintains optimal sorting and grading.

This reduces the risk of human error, ensuring each seafood product meets quality standards.

Reduced Manual Labor and Enhanced Crew Safety

Automation reduces the reliance on manual labor, improving workplace safety. Modern seafood processing factories equipped with processing machines and fish grading lines reduce the need for heavy lifting and repetitive tasks. This minimizes injury risks while enhancing crew working conditions.

Carsoe's factory rebuilds and upgraded processing lines improve workflow and ergonomics, creating a safer and more efficient environment for crew members.

Automation Technologies

Investing in factory upgrades can significantly improve the performance of seafood processing factories. With efficient processing technology, advanced automation systems, and modern freezing solutions, vessels can increase productivity, improve product quality, and enhance crew safety.

Whether transitioning to a multispecies seafood processing factory or improving existing systems, adopting modern automation is key to ensuring long-term success.

Sorting and Grading Systems

Advanced sorting and grading systems are crucial in modern seafood processing factories. Roe sorting lines, fish grading machines, shrimp graders, and fish roller graders improve sorting accuracy and speed.

These systems ensure products are sorted based on size, weight, or quality, enhancing efficiency in both shrimp and fish processing.

Automated Cleaning and Gutting Machines

Applying machines to automate the repetitive task of cleaning and gutting your catch play a critical role in improving processing speed.

One gutting machine can perform the work of five production workers and in addition to the improved processing speed, it also creates a better working environment as the strenuous handgutting task is eliminated.

These systems streamline the removal of fish entrails and prepare seafood for further processing or freezing. Efficient gutting machines reduce waste and maintain seafood quality standards.

Automated onboard freezing

Freezing is a crucial step in seafood processing. Upgrades like plate freezers and IQF freezers enhance product preservation. Plate freezers quickly freeze seafood in compact units, maximizing available space on board.

IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) technology prevents clumping, ensuring each product retains its texture and quality. Therefore such technology can prove to be very valuable for shrimp factories.

For instance, Carsoe's successful upgrade of the Nordtind trawler with optimized shrimp processing machinery allowed for faster processing and improved quality.
