Tub Turn Over Machine
The Tub Turn Over Machine is Mikra’s reliable solution for automating the emptying of fish tubs in land-based processing facilities. Designed to reduce manual handling and improve operational efficiency, it helps processors empty tubs safely, consistently, and with minimal operator intervention, supporting smoother production flow throughout the facility.
Manual emptying of fish tubs is physically demanding, time-consuming, and introduces unnecessary risk to operators working in demanding production environments. The Tub Turn Over Machine addresses this directly by automating the turning process, reducing physical strain on employees while maintaining a high level of safety throughout the operation. Built from stainless steel to withstand the salty and demanding conditions of fish processing facilities, it is designed for long-term, dependable performance in land-based operations.
Although built as a robust standard solution, the Tub Turn Over Machine is designed to integrate into existing processing facility layouts, supporting efficient tub handling without significant disruption to established workflows.
What the Tub Turn Over Machine is used for
The Tub Turn Over Machine is used for the automated emptying of fish tubs in land-based fish processing plants, where consistent, safe, and efficient tub handling is critical to maintaining production flow. By automating the turning process, it removes the need for manual tub emptying, reducing the physical demands placed on operators and minimising the risk of handling errors or workplace injuries.
The system features a simple control interface, making it straightforward for operators to use with minimal training, while high safety features ensure that the machine operates reliably and securely throughout every cycle.
