Seafood Processing Solutions – Design and Manufacture

Conveyor systems play a crucial role in the processing of seafood. They are used to efficiently move raw seafood products through various stages of processing, including cleaning, sorting, and packaging.

These systems can be customised to suit the specific needs of seafood processing facilities, and can include features such as sanitation measures and temperature control. This post will explore the different types of conveyor systems available for seafood processing, as well as the benefits they offer.

At Wrightfield, we manufacture a comprehensive range of seafood processing solutions including portioning, weighing and grading machines. We look at these solutions in further detail in the following post and discuss how they can help a business to increase productivity, please continue reading to find out more.

2. Chain conveyors: These conveyors use chains to move seafood products and are often used in applications where the product needs to be elevated or lowered.
3. Roller conveyors: These conveyors use rollers to move seafood products and are often used in applications where the product needs to be turned or rotated.
4. Bucket conveyors: These conveyors use buckets to move seafood products and are often used in applications where the product needs to be elevated or lowered.
5. Vibratory conveyors: These conveyors use vibration to move seafood products and are often used in applications where the product needs to be separated or sorted.
6. Pneumatic conveyors: These conveyors use air pressure to move seafood products and are often used in applications where the product needs to be transported over long distances.
7. Overhead conveyors: These conveyors are suspended from the ceiling and are used to transport seafood products overhead.
