Marelec Portio portion cutters

The Marelec Portio portion cutter is suitable for fresh products such as fish fillets, whole fish, meat and poultry products. Different knife types and product fixation systems can be chosen to different product types.

A product is fed on the infeed belt. A three-dimensional laser scanner then calculates its volume. A preset weight and shape frame is selected from the program menu. The portion computer then calculates where to cut.

The main difference between the Portio 1 and Portio 3 are the number of cameras. The Portio 1 has one camera and is suitable for flat products, whereas the Portio 3 has three cameras and is able to properly scan rounded products.

For products exceeding certain dimensions, both machines can be equipped with 300 or 350 mm belts rather than the standard 254 mm width belt.

An optical checkweigher can optimise the precision with changing product characteristics.

The machine can be completely opened for easy cleaning and the belts can be taken out for separate cleaning.

For maintenance, easily obtainable spare parts have been selected. All motors and encoders are situated away from the wet area.
