STATUS: USED
The Baader 145 is a legacy, industrial-grade fish processing machine designed by the German manufacturer Baader, a global leader in food processing automation.
Depending on the specific factory setup and processing line configuration, the Baader 145 is primarily classified as an eviscerating/gutting machine or a filleting machine, commonly utilized for smaller to mid-sized pelagic fish species like herring, mackerel, or sardines.
Key Functions & Features
- Gutting and Eviscerating: The machine is engineered to automatically split, gut, and clean the belly cavity of the fish with minimal manual intervention.
- Precision Processing: It delivers clean, consistent cuts (often referred to in the industry as a «princess cut») to optimize the yield and quality of the final meat.
- High-Speed Throughput: Like most Baader machinery, it was built to handle high volumes of fish per minute to match industrial processing standards.
- Mechanical Reliability: Known for its heavy-duty stainless steel build, the Baader 145 is a classic «workhorse» model. While newer automated models like the Baader 144 now dominate high-end salmon processing lines, refurbished or used Baader 145 machines are still highly sought after in the secondary market by smaller processing facilities due to their reliability and lower capital cost.
Note: Because Baader constantly updates its lineup with newer generations featuring integrated camera inspection systems and smart motion controls (such as the Baader 142 or Baader 144), the Baader 145 is most commonly found today through industrial used-machinery brokers and refurbishers.
