Monitors fillet quality

The QC Scanner MS 2920 efficiently scans the surface of salmon fillets for trimming, quality, color and weight estimation. It detects quality defects like dark spots, cartilage and gaping. Based on the scan results, fillets are sorted either before or after trimming, depending on the setup.

Optimized trimming

When placed before the trimming line, the QC Scanner ensures that only fillets requiring further trimming are directed to the trimmers. The rest pass untouched, preventing loss of yield caused by unnecessary trimming.

Sorts by quality, color or weight

When placed after the trimming line, the QC Scanner sorts fillets according to the quality, color or weight. The fillets are directed to the outfeed where drop-down gates separate them according to the defined parameters.

Fillet quality can be monitored in real time on a computer with our optional AXIN Process Solutions software. With AXIN, it is possible to search and store images from the scanner and generate reports on quality, color and weight distribution with the captured images.

Benefits of AXIN Software

• Centralized real-time monitoring and control
• Analyze historical fillet quality over time
• Detailed reports provide vital insights
• Standardized evaluation methods allow valuable comparisons
• Monitor and control quality scanning
   

Live dashboard reports give you a clear overview of fillet quality, so you can intervene quickly in the event of any deviation in quality. User-friendly program management allows you to control scanner settings remotely for multiple devices.

Get operational insight

Valuable information about fillet quality is collected and stored in the database, enabling you to analyze and optimize your quality control process. This statistical analysis takes away the guesswork and allows you to make data-driven decisions and provide suppliers with feedback on their quality.
