An automated immersive chilling system wherein the system may comprise a shackle and a track. The shackle may be configured to cooperatively attach to a product to be cooled. The track may be configured to move the shackle along a processing line wherein the processing line may comprise one or more curved channels retaining a reservoir of a cooling medium. The shackle may be configured to move the product within the reservoir to agitate the cooling medium. The shackle can be a rotating shackle that can be configured to move the product within the reservoir to agitate the cooling medium by rotating the shackle in the reservoir of the cooling medium. The shackle may be further configured to move the product within the reservoir to agitate the cooling medium by vibrating the shackle in the reservoir.

A dual waterfall cabinet includes a hollow basin having front and rear openings to allow workpieces to move therethrough. The cabinet also includes waterfall assemblies on either side of the hollow basin that form waterfalls of solution to be applied to the workpieces. To provide thorough interior and exterior coverage, the distance between the waterfalls can vary along a length of the cabinet.

A fish supply system automatedly conveys fish with defined head/tail and prone/supine alignment to a fish processing apparatus. A speed conveyor transverse axially conveys fish with defined alignments to the apparatus. Feeding apparatuses are arranged above the speed conveyor, each having a cascade conveyor for transverse axially conveying fish, having receptacles separated from by controllable flaps. A clocking flap controls output to the speed conveyor from the last receptacle. A supply device includes a first central conveyor belt, flow scales determining fish regulated mass throughput onto the belt. A speed regulatable second central conveyor belt follows the first conveyor belt. Conveyor strands continuously connect the second belt with the feeding, wherein control flaps separate fish from the second conveyor belt to the conveyor strands. A control device connects with and technically controls the first and second conveyor belts, flow scales, the flaps, conveyor strands, speed conveyor and feeding apparatuses.
