Siemens: Automation to ensure fresh fish
Quality control is key to ensuring fresh seafood. Historically, this has been done by processing staff who use their senses and experience to examine the condition of gills and eyes, the firmness and smell of flesh and the colour of skin to distinguish between a fresh product and one that is not of good quality. But now, machines are helping seafood processors to supply retailers and consumers with top quality products, quantifying the freshness of seafood to meet food quality and safety regulations.
