Ishida solution meets fixed-weight fish challenge

摘要

Ishida Europe has devised a bespoke weighing solution that has enabled Deutsche See Fischmanufaktur, Germany's market leader in seafood to weigh just two large fresh fish fillets for a fixed-weight pack while keeping the overall weight close to target. Prior to the Ishida installation, the company used static weighing by hand, with the worker having to make quick decisions as to which two fillets to allocate to a pack. This was slow and also resulted in significant overweight. With a speed of 30ppm, the new system can now deliver up to nine tonnes of packaged fish per two-shift day. More importantly, the reduction in giveaway has enabled it to pay for itself within two years of installation.
