The ultimate solution for automating the packing and styling of catch-weight salmon portions into trays

RoboPacker: The Future of Salmon Packing Automation with Catch- or Fixed-Weight Precision

The New Machine Automates Fixed- or Catch-Weight Portioning, Achieving up to 120 Pieces Per Minute and Reducing Labor Costs in Processing Plants

REYKJAVIK — JBT Marel has unveiled RoboPacker, its latest innovation in advanced robotics, designed to automate and reshape salmon portion packaging lines. The company asserts that the machine is the future of fixed- or catch-weight packing into trays, offering increased efficiency, less reliance on manual labor, and perfect product styling.

RoboPacker is engineered to be the ideal companion for salmon processors worldwide, as it automates the manual task of packing and styling portions into trays, thereby improving throughput and food safety standards.

Speed, Precision, and Technological Heritage

This new robotic packer builds upon a decades-long heritage of automation, including previous innovations like RoboBatcher Flex (2014), RoboBatcher Thermoformer (2017), and RoboBatcher Box (2019). It is estimated that by 2025, more than 350 JBT Marel robots will be handling 3.8 million pieces of protein, saving processors millions in operational efficiency.

RoboPacker offers key capabilities, including:

• Increased Efficiency: It can pack up to 120 pieces and 80 trays per minute, operating 24/7.

• Robotic Precision: It uses a 3D vision system to ensure the accurate placement of each piece, allowing for minimum target weight packing to maximize yield.

• Styling Flexibility: It offers the ability to easily choose between different styling patterns to present products in the most appealing way.

• Seamless Integration: Designed with a small footprint to fit into existing production lines, and it connects smoothly with third-party systems and other JBT Marel solutions, such as the I-Cut 130 PortionCutter.

The company emphasizes that RoboPacker is not just a machine, but part of JBT Marel's commitment to transforming salmon production with smarter and more efficient solutions.
