Valka Launches Two New Types of IQF Graders

  (ICELAND, 6/12/2020)

Icelandic high-tech company Valka has designed two new graders for batching and automatic packing of IQF frozen products that offer numerous new features compared to traditional graders in this category.

Automatic infeed and highest per per square meter throughput 

The High-speed Portion Grader is a multi-lane grader with unparalleled per square metre throughput. The  grader can be constructed with up to four lanes and the products are sorted by weight and dimensions.

Optionally it can be assembled with a fully automatic infeed system or the traditional circular infeed. Instead of the traditional pneumatic arms the grader is equipped with gentle handling dropping mechanism at each gate, so the products flow smoothly into the buffer. Furthermore, the grader can be supplied to pack to bulk packaging or to smaller type boxes and attached takeaway conveyors.

 

Valka offers various grading & batching equipment for whole fish or portions, fresh or frozen.
 
Batching- and packing robot that eliminates overpack
 

The Aligner Packing Robot automatically packs IQF fillets or portions according to the most demanding packing requirements with absolute minimum overpack. Unlike traditional batching graders that make decisions based on a statistical guess, the Valka Packing Robot recognizes the weight of numerous pieces in advance before applying a game theory algorithm.

In that way, it continually optimizes the best solution based on actual piece weights, resulting in close to no giveaway (a.k.a. overpack). Furthermore, the grader is equipped with a carousel system with built-in cars that pick up and transport the product. An integrated cartesian robot then gently slides the portion for delivery directly above the final packaging.
