The smallest of our Drum scalers, the DS-150 is a manually operated machine with a capacity of 200 lbs (90kg) each cycle.
The DS-series drum scaling machines scale the fish by gently spinning them in a metal mesh drum. The rotating action and friction between the fish and the mesh removes the scales. The fish are scaled for a predetermined length of time controlled by an automatic adjustable timer. This ensures that the fish are scaled without any damage to the eyes or gill plate.
The DS-300 and DS-150 drum scalers are available with the following options: feed hopper, scale basket, removable panels, take-away conveyor and top holding hopper with optional load cell mounting for a controlled weight feed to the scaler.
