Frequently Asked Questions
What types of fish can your gutting and scaling machines handle?
Our machines are adjustable and can handle a wide range of species including tilapia, salmon, trout, sea bass, and carp. We can customize the clamping and cutting mechanisms based on your specific fish size range (e.g., 0.5kg to 5kg) to ensure precision.
What materials are used to construct the equipment?
All food-contact parts and the main body are manufactured from food-grade SUS304 stainless steel. This ensures high corrosion resistance against saltwater environments and full compliance with HACCP and ISO hygiene standards.
Can the fish filleting machine handle semi-frozen fish?
Yes, our filleting machines often perform best when fish is in a semi-frozen or "micro-frozen" state, as the firmer texture allows for cleaner cuts. However, fully hard-frozen blocks require thawing equipment first, which we can also supply.
How do you ensure high meat yield and minimize waste during filleting?
Our machines utilize high-precision circular blades and adjustable guides that hug the backbone of the fish. This typically achieves a meat yield recovery rate significantly higher than manual processing, reducing waste and increasing profit margins.
Do you offer full production line design (turnkey solutions)?
Yes, HSYL provides end-to-end solutions. We can design a complete layout including washing elevators, grading machines, scaling and gutting stations, filleting lines, vacuum packaging, and IQF (Individual Quick Freezing) tunnels tailored to your factory space.
Is the machinery easy to clean and sanitize?
Yes, our equipment is designed with hygiene in mind. Conveyor belts and cutting parts often feature tool-free disassembly, and the motors are protected with IP65 waterproofing, allowing for safe high-pressure washdowns at the end of every shift.
What are the water consumption requirements?
Water consumption varies by model. Our scaling and washing machines are equipped with water recycling systems or optimized spray nozzles to reduce usage while ensuring thorough cleaning. Specific flow rates (L/hour) can be found in the technical manual for each model.
Can the voltage and frequency be customized for my country?
Yes, we customize all electrical components to match your local power supply (e.g., 220V/60Hz single phase, 380V/50Hz, or 415V three-phase) to ensure immediate compatibility upon arrival.
What spare parts should I stock to avoid downtime?
We recommend keeping a stock of consumables such as circular blades, conveyor belts, and drive belts. We provide a suggested spare parts list with every machine purchase and offer express shipping for replacements.
Do you provide on-site installation and training?
For complete processing lines, we can dispatch engineers to your facility for installation and staff training. For single machines, we provide detailed video tutorials and 24/7 remote technical support to guide you through the setup.
