Fish
Advanced technologies for fish and seafood processing and quality control
Fish processing calls for technologies designed to operate in particularly harsh environments, ensuring high hygiene standards, dosing precision and rigorous quality control.
From weighing fresh, chilled, frozen or marinated products to inspecting fillets, steaks and packaged products, Libra offers reliable solutions that preserve product quality and ensure maximum food safety.
Key challenges
Delicate, high-moisture products
Fillets, steaks and fish preparations need careful handling to preserve their integrity and appearance
Sticky or hard-to-handle products
Marinated, smoked or particularly moist preparations need weighing systems designed for precision and operational continuity
Aggressive production environments
Moisture, salt and frequent washdowns call for machines designed to operate in particularly severe conditions
High product variability
Different species, sizes and cuts call for highly flexible technologies
Contaminants and foreign bodies
Metal fragments, fish hooks, processing needles and other contaminants must be detected with maximum sensitivity
Product quality control
Detecting residual fish bones, defects and anomalies is a fundamental requirement for consumer safety

The machines
Tailor-made solutions. Real tests.
We test your product free of charge to identify the technology and configuration best suited to your application. Real trials, performance analysis and dedicated reports allow us to develop every project starting from concrete data and from the customer's specific production needs. First we test. Then we build the solution.
