Walk into any mid-to-large seafood processing plant — salmon factories in Norway, tilapia lines in Southeast Asia, cod processing facilities in Northern Europe — and the bottleneck is often the filleting stage. Manual workers are slower, fillet quality can vary by operator, and labor requirements increase as production volume grows. That is exactly where the Fengxiang FGB-180 fish filleting machine is designed to help.
The FGB-180 is an industrial-grade automatic fish filleting machine that uses a band knife and circular knife working together to follow the natural bone structure of each fish. The machine produces a clean 3-piece split: 1 bone center + 2 fillet sides. It is suitable for salmon, tilapia, sooted mackerel, atka mackerel, pollock and cod, as well as similarly structured round fish. Mechanical adjustments can be made according to fish species and size.

Challenges in Industrial Fish Filleting
Manual fish filleting requires skilled operators and can become difficult to maintain consistently as production volume increases. The FGB-180 fish filleting machine is designed to provide a more consistent mechanical cutting process.
Pain Point How FGB-180 Solves It Low fillet yield caused by inconsistent cutting Knife positioning is designed around the fish bone structure to improve meat recovery. Inconsistent cutting quality between operators Mechanical positioning and adjustment help maintain repeatable cutting results. High labor requirement for manual filleting Automatic feeding and cutting reduce manual handling during the filleting stage. Uneven fillet cutting results Band knife and circular knife combination provides controlled cutting along the fish. Difficulty integrating manual filleting into automated lines Conveyor-fed design allows integration with other fish processing equipment. How the Fish Filleting Machine Works - Step by Step
The FGB-180 follows a straightforward processing sequence. After the machine is adjusted for the target fish species and size, whole fish are continuously fed through the cutting section and discharged as two fillet sides and a central bone section.

Key Features of the FGB-180 Fish Filleting Machine
🔪Bone-Oriented Knife Positioning
The cutting system is positioned around the natural bone structure of the fish to help produce clean fillet cuts and improve usable meat recovery.
⚙️Band Knife + Circular Knife
The FGB-180 combines band knife and circular knife cutting mechanisms to process whole fish into two fillet sides and one central bone section.
🐟Wide Species Compatibility
Suitable for salmon, tilapia, sooted mackerel, atka mackerel, pollock, cod and other similarly structured fish. Mechanical adjustments support different fish sizes.
🏭Inline Line Integration
Conveyor-fed input and discharge allow the machine to be integrated with upstream and downstream fish processing equipment.
🛡️Food-Grade Stainless Steel
Food-contact components use stainless steel construction designed for regular cleaning and demanding seafood processing environments.
🔧Mechanical Adjustment
Operators can adjust the cutting position according to fish species and size, helping the machine adapt to different production requirements.
Suitable Fish Species
The FGB-180 fish filleting machine is designed for a range of round fish species. Machine adjustment can be made according to fish size and processing requirements.
🐟 Salmon 🐟 Tilapia 🐟 Sooted Mackerel 🐟 Atka Mackerel 🐟 Pollock 🐟 Cod Application Scenarios
Fish processing plants increasingly use mechanical equipment to improve processing consistency and reduce manual handling. The FGB-180 fish filleting machine can be used in:

Troubleshooting Guide
Quick solutions to common issues during fish filleting machine operation:
Issue Cause Solution Equipment not working Power not connected Check the power connection, plugs and switch. If power is confirmed but the equipment does not start, consult a qualified technician. Conveyor belt running in reverse Incorrect three-phase motor connection Check the three-phase power connection and motor rotation direction. Electrical work should be performed by qualified personnel. Unclean fillet cut surface Blade worn or dull Inspect blade condition. Replace or sharpen the blade according to the machine maintenance procedure. Conveyor belt damaged Blade clearance is too small Check and adjust the clearance between the blade and conveyor belt according to the machine setting requirements. Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What fish species can the FGB-180 fish filleting machine process?The FGB-180 is suitable for salmon, tilapia, sooted mackerel, atka mackerel, pollock, cod and other similarly structured round fish.
