Fully Automatic Fish Canning Line

End-to-end design, manufacturing, and delivery—empowering you to achieve efficient, compliant, and highly profitable production in any global market.

The fully automatic fish canning line from HSYL is engineered for high-throughput seafood production, combining automated can filling, double-dome seam control and continuous steam retort sterilization.

Line Flow for Seafood Canning

Raw fish enters the system through hygienic receiving and thawing, then passes through automatic washing and grading before the can filler doses oil, brine or tomato sauce in precise portions.

The process ties together washing-cleaning-machines with downstream thermal handling from cooking-frying to maintain product texture while keeping the sealing zone free of oily residue.

Hygiene and Automation Synergy

HSYL builds the line with sanitary pump skids, easy-swap fittings and CIP-ready manifolds so oily fish brine circuits are flushed clean without dismantling the core filler and seamer modules.

  • Full CIP capacity for filler, seamer and pump loops
  • No-dead-leg design for oil and brine transfer pipes
  • Recipe storage for rapid product changeover

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the fully automatic fish canning line manage oil and brine without affecting sealing?
The line uses separate sanitary pump circuits, positive displacement dosing and no-dead-leg manifolds so oil and saltwater are routed away from the seamer and do not contaminate the sealing area.
Can the system switch between tuna, sardine and mackerel products?
Yes, the plant includes recipe-controlled dosing and quick-change filler modules to switch between tuna oil, sardine brine and mackerel sauce with minimal downtime.
What is required to validate the steam retort for shelf-stable cans?
Validation is based on 121-130C retort cycles with P and T data logging, ensuring every batch meets commercial sterility requirements for fish cans.
What utility connections are needed for installation?
The line typically requires 400V three-phase power, a 150 kW steam boiler connection and compressed air for pneumatic actuators and seamer control.
What maintenance schedule is recommended for the fish canning line?
Preventive maintenance includes weekly inspection of seam rolls, monthly verification of CIP pump performance and quarterly checks of retort temperature sensors.
