Feature HN / Features

  • You can remove the backbone and belly bone!

    It is capable of both back and belly splitting. It can cut from the backbone to the belly bone. By adjusting the settings, it is also possible to cut only the backbone. Removing the bones allows for the production of high-value-added products.

  • Clean cuts with four layers of multi-blades!

    Using the two circular blades at the entrance, it opens about half of the back and abdomen, and then the two circular blades at the back cut the backbone section. The circular blades are set at a 120° angle, not parallel blades, ensuring efficient cutting without waste, allowing for high processing yield.

  • Automatic lane construction with head cutter connection.

    By introducing the 'HB-SS / Head Cutter,' which can be connected to the HN, it is possible to construct an automatic lane. This allows the work to proceed at almost twice the speed, enabling operation with fewer personnel. It significantly reduces the work time.

  • Made entirely of stainless steel and can be washed with water

    You can easily clean the machine after processing by rinsing it with water. For stubborn fish oil, using a neutral detergent is recommended for effective cleaning.

Processing HN / Processing example

  • It can perform three-way opening and filleting.
  • It can do both back splitting and belly splitting.

The increasing demand for products without fish bones has led to a rising demand for machines capable of removing the backbone and belly bones. These machines allow for the removal of only the backbone or both the backbone and belly bones by adjusting the settings.

You can choose either 'three-way opening' or 'three-way filleting.
