A fish filleting machine comprises a conveyor for transporting the fish tail forwards, belly filleting knives, back filleting knives, rib knives, first severing knives for the severing through of the flesh strip, and second severing knives for the severing of the fillets at the tail root of the fish. A closed guide track for the backbone of the fish is arranged between the belly filleting knives or the back filleting knives and the second severing knives. The first severing knives lie between the belly filleting knives or the back filleting knives and the rib knives and are connected with control means, which are actuated synchronously with the conveyor and bring the first severing knives into a setting crossing the guide track before and arrival of the end of the abdominal cavity of the respective fish.
A method of filleting fish comprising the steps of:
A fish filleting machine comprising conveyor means to convey fish tail forwards, belly filleting knife means, back filleting knife means, rib cutting knife means, first severing knife means for severing through flesh of the fish, second severing knife means for severing the fish at the tail root thereof, wherein closed guide means for guiding the backbone of the fish are disposed between said second severing knife means and at least one of said back and belly filleting knife means, said first severing knife means being disposed between said rib knife means and at least one of said back and belly filleting knife means and being connected with control means actuable synchronously with said conveyor means to dispose said first severing knife means at a position at which they traverse said guide means before the arrival of the belly cavity end of the fish.
