It is based on more than 20 years of technical experience. The design originates in Denmark however in a simpler version. AGK propelled the design to a state-of-the-art butchering aid that equips many modern slaughter houses. For most fish the standard model is sufficient. Other sizes are available upon request, though. The device is available in two versions: table model or wall mounted. With the safety blade the abdominal wall of the fish is broken starting from the vent. The hook shape protects the inte stine, preventing spillage of faeces. Thus a high degree of hygiene is ensured. The shape of the blade also ensures a high level of operator safety in case of a slip. The fish does not need to be turned over as all gutting movements start from the vent. The suction head has two scrape edges at its lower rim which take up the residue (such as blood and kidneys) while it is passed through the fish. A push-button activates a pneumatically driven knife that cuts off the gorge. After gutting the residual blood can be fully rinsed off with the rotating brush. The rational sequence of steps allows the operator to gut approx. 300 fish per hour. Experienced workers can reach up to 400 fish per hour.
