Crab legs are removed from bodies. Chutes for finished products, waste chutes and chutes for offal overboard are included. Capacity per operation is approx 225 kg raw material per hour. 

There are two cleaning brushes per workstation for cleaning off the remaining meat where the legs have been removed. 

A hoist lifts the racks, lowers them into the crab cookers and onwards to the cooling tank.

The ranks are moved to the pre-cooling tanks and later to the brine freezing tanks

Now the racks are lowered into the rinsing tank, and finally into the glazing tank. 

The ready crab legs are packed into trays, checkweighed and the trays are inserted into racks containing 6 trays, preparing them for further processing.
