World Renowned Fish Processing Equipment

Head Cutting Machines

Incorporating automatic positioning of each individual fish to ensure the heads cut is in the optimum position for maximum yield.

 

HS 10

Straight head cut with adjustable angle for fish in the size range 4 ozs (100 grams) to 16 ozs (450grams) depending on species.

A stand alone head cutting unit for fish in the size range 85 grams to 450 grams. Each fish is individually located to ensure optimum position irrespective of size. A single circular blade angled to produce the optimal yield is used to remove the head. Often used to prepare fish for the FR 150 filleting. Can be supplied with vacuum evisceration for enhanced Hygienic operation and is an integral component of the AHF 110 single operator system.

HS 20

Straight head cut with adjustable angle for fish in the size range 12 ozs (350 grams) to 6 lbs (2.7 Kg) depending on species.

HS 25

Vee cut to capture meat above the gill plate for fish in the size range 12 ozs (350 grams) to 6 Lbs (2.7kgs) depending on species.

HS 40

Vee cut to capture meat above the gill plate for fish in the size range 3 Lbs (1.5 Kg) to 10 lbs (5Kgs) depending on species.

VHV-45

To produce vertical “V” cut that capture the flesh inside the head
behind the gill plate and collarbone from top of the head.

A stand-alone head cutting unit for fish in the size range of 600g to
3.5kg.Operates at speed up to 30 fish per minute depending on the size.
The PLC allows for easy change over from different sizes. This provides
higher yield on fillets.

The VHV-45 can be interfaced with PISCES Gutting and Filleting
machines, to provide a single operator system, producing fillets from
whole round fish in one operation..

VHV-90

To produce vertical “V” cut that capture the flesh inside the head
behind the gill plate and collarbone from top of the head.

A stand-alone head cutting unit for fish in the size range of 2.5kg to
10kg. Operates at speed up to 25 fish per minute depending on the size.
The PLC allows for easy change over from different sizes. This provides
higher yield on fillets.

The VHV-90 can be interfaced with PISCES Gutting and Filleting
machines, to provide a single operator system, producing fillets from
whole round fish in one operation.
