GEACommon questions
What does this equipment leave outside its scope?
Forming prepared seafood does not constitute a complete surimi-manufacturing line. Different recipes and forms require suitable tooling and a defined finishing route.
Can catalogue rates be compared directly?
First align the feed material, units, acceptance criteria and delivery boundaries. Fish/minute, fillets/minute, kilograms/hour and forming strokes measure different things.
