Crane Scales for Fishing Vessels

Efficiently transferring fish from vessels to tender boats in rough seas with accurate weights is critical. MSI crane scales keep operations moving, with accurate weights and reliable use. The MSI-4260M Port-A-Weigh marine crane scale is a durable overhead weighing solution for fishing boats. The MSI-4260M features an IP66 aluminum enclosure to protect sensitive electronics in rough weather conditions while managing medium- to heavy-capacity loads.

Floor Scales Designed for Commercial Fishermen

Accurately weighing fish is necessary for commercial fishers to understand the size of catches they pull in. Rice Lake’s floor scales are reliable solutions for weighing fish on tender boats or during processing. The RoughDeck® HE hostile environment floor scale is a reliable, easy-to-clean solution with a long lifespan due to its stainless-steel design.

Filling and Batching for Fish Storage

Fish are often stored in large containers, and weight is tracked to ensure nothing is under- or over-filled. Rice Lake’s filling and batching systems, such as the 920i® FlexWeigh System, assist fishermen in filling storage containers to proper capacities. The stainless-steel designs with NEMA Type 4X enclosures are industrial strength to ensure operations always function properly.

Weight Indicators for Demanding Fishing Environments

In stormy weather, fishermen need vibrant displays to view weights. Rice Lake’s weight indicators provide clear results so fishermen can accurately track the weights of catches. Indicators feature different IP ratings to suit various sea environments, as well as wall-mounted options for convenient placement on tender boats or in facilities. Remote displays make it simple for operators to view results from a distance and monitor operations.

Checkweighers for Processing Fish

Processing fish through facilities can take time, but checkweighers can keep operations moving fast. Rice Lake’s CW-90X checkweighers keep processes efficient and accurate when fish are transferred to processing facilities. With sturdy keypads that withstand knife-point contacts and stainless-steel designs, these solutions are ideal for processing individual fish and small containers.
