Automated, cloud-based solution increases efficiency in aquaculture facility

Init delivered an automated fish feed system, SCADA system and cloud solution for Skagen Salmon’s new fish farming facility.

Skagen Salmon’s new facility for fish farming is built on recirculation aquaculture system (RAS) technology. The facility is highly automated and is equipped with a fish feed system, SCADA system and cloud solution from Init.

 

Skagen Salmon’s new facility has an annual capacity of 3,600 tonnes salmon. The fish are farmed in indoor tanks with grow out systems 1-6 and harvested at a weight of up to 4 kg. Init delivered the fish feeding system, electrical panels as well as SCADA system and cloud solution for the new facility.

Solution

Automated fish feeding system for higher efficiency

Init’s Smart Fish Feeder system is designed to eliminate the challenges of traditional fish feeder systems. Designed in cooperating with RAS designers, Skagen Salmon and other fish farming companies, the system specifically aims to:

 

  • Reduce the amount of feed waste during transport of fish feed.
  • Efficient and correct distribution of fish feed in each farming tank.
  • Accurate feed quantity.
  • Better traceability of the entire fish stock.

 

The system comes with a cloud solution, based on the SCADA system, providing real-time data from across the fish stock, enabling operators to act swiftly to any challenges.

 

With Init’s Smart Fish Feeder we can automate the feeding process and at the same time, we can send production data to the cloud.
