Glazing Conveyor
The Glazing Conveyor is Mikra’s reliable and efficient solution for applying an even glaze to frozen fish in both white fish and pelagic processing operations. Designed for both onboard and land-based use, it ensures consistent glaze coverage across every unit processed, protecting product quality, appearance, and shelf life throughout storage and distribution.
Proper glazing is an essential step in frozen fish processing, where uneven coverage can leave product vulnerable to freezer burn, dehydration, and oxidation. The Glazing Conveyor addresses this directly by driving product under glazing showers positioned on top of the conveyor at precisely the speed needed to achieve the preferred glazing volume, delivering consistent, controlled coverage with every pass.
Although built as a robust standard solution, each Glazing Conveyor is configured to suit the specific throughput and glazing requirements of the facility, ensuring the right glaze volume and conveyor speed are achieved for every application.
What the Glazing Conveyor is used for
The Glazing Conveyor is used for the even and controlled glazing of frozen white fish and pelagic fish, where consistent coverage and reliable operation are critical to maintaining product quality and supporting downstream handling, storage, and distribution. It is suitable for both onboard vessels and land-based processing facilities, and is designed to integrate smoothly into existing production lines at the glazing stage of the process.
The glazing showers are positioned on top of the conveyor and apply glaze as the product moves beneath them at a controlled speed, allowing operators to dial in the exact glazing volume needed for each product type and batch requirement.
