Revolutionary VersaPack™ system allows production to be directed in response to market demands, prioritizing more valuable end-products as they’re needed
Computerized vision technology detects species, size-grades fish and creates basis for full product traceability on individual level.
Efficient washing and bleeding technology, based on first-in/first-out principle, delivers higher end-product quality.
Self-loading and unloading plate freezers designed for use at sea deliver superior product quality and operate in a fully enclosed cabin.
Mixed product from simultaneous processing lines automatically packed and palletized as needed, simplifying zoo-keeping, landing and greatly reducing labor.
The Skaginn 3X turnkey onboard solution for frozen groundfish is breaking new ground in demand-driven fishing. As market demands shift, the Skaginn 3X can respond in real time with simultaneous processing lines and the VersaPack™ system, which allows producers to pick, pack and freeze a range of product in response to demand onshore, yet palletize in an optimized way that fully utilizes pallet space.
The innovative Skaginn 3X equipment is characterized by a high level of precision automation, including computerized visioning, batching, freezing, packaging and palletization. Moreover, the entire system is purpose-designed for operation at sea and to support high energy efficiency while minimizing the overall carbon footprint. As with all Skaginn 3X technology, product quality is a priority, made possible here by a short production time, low temps, optimized bleeding and non-pressure freezing.
The Skaginn 3X turnkey solution for groundfish onboard frozen processing is highly customizable. Below is an example of a buildout, although the solution offers great flexibility and is invariably configured to meet each client’s particular needs by the Skaginn 3X team of engineers and designers in close collaboration with the client.
