Sardine Canning Production Line

Washing Machine

This unit thoroughly cleans the fresh sardines, removing impurities, scales, and surface contaminants using high-pressure water jets and automated brush systems.

Drum Fish Scaling Machine

Designed specifically for sardines, this machine employs a rotating drum with soft, yet effective, scaling blades to gently remove scales without damaging the delicate skin.

Sardine Processing Segment

This segment integrates automated evisceration and initial trimming, where sardines are further processed to remove heads, viscera, and bones. Skilled operators supervise the process to ensure only premium meat proceeds.

Pre-Cooking Machine

The pre-cooking unit uses water-cooking techniques to partially cook the processed sardines. This step softens the meat, enhances flavor, and reduces microbial load before final packaging.

Automatic Filling Machine

This high-speed filling system accurately transfers pre-cooked sardine meat into sanitized cans, ensuring uniform volume and minimal waste across high production volumes.

Soup Filling Machine

Specially designed for adding pickling liquids or sauces, this machine precisely dispenses a controlled amount of brine into each can alongside the sardine meat, enhancing flavor and ensuring proper preservation.

Sealing Machine

Utilizing advanced heat-sealing or mechanical capping technology, this machine ensures each can receives an airtight, robust seal, protecting the product from contamination and oxidation.

High-Pressure Sterilization Retort

A critical unit that subjects the sealed cans to controlled high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, ensuring complete microbial inactivation while preserving the sardines’ flavor and nutritional profile.

Carton Packing System

Following sterilization, this automated system efficiently organizes and packs the cans into cartons, readying the product for storage and distribution.

Palletizing Machine

The final stage involves automated palletizing, where cartons are systematically stacked on pallets for secure transportation and storage.
