Hb320 Shrimp Peeling Machine
HB320
Shrimp Peeling Machine Typical Applications
- Shrimp Processing Plants – Industrial peeling operations for export-oriented factories
- Seafood Export Industry – Processing white shrimp, tiger shrimp, prawns for Europe, USA, Japan, and Asia
- Frozen Food Industry – Peeled shrimp ready for IQF freezing, packaging, and retail
- Catering & Retail Supply – Suppliers for restaurants, supermarkets, and hotels requiring large volumes of peeled shrimp

A Shrimp Peeling Machine is a seafood processing system designed to remove shrimp shells quickly, hygienically, and consistently. Traditional manual peeling requires large amounts of labor, is slow, and results in inconsistent quality. Soontrue’s automated peeling machine replaces manual labor with high-speed, reliable, and hygienic peeling technology, ensuring high yield and lower costs.
More than just a single-purpose tool, it forms a key part of a shrimp processing line alongside deheading, deveining, freezing, and packaging equipment, creating a fully automated shrimp processing workflow.
Why It Matters
- Labor Saving – Replaces dozens of workers with a single automated solution.
- Consistency & Quality – Ensures every shrimp is peeled cleanly with minimal damage.
- Flexibility – Handles multiple shrimp species and sizes with fast product switching.
- Scalability – Designed for medium to large shrimp processing factories targeting export markets.
How It Works
- Shrimp Feeding – Deheaded shrimp are loaded into the hopper or conveyor.
- Alignment & Separation – The system positions shrimp correctly for peeling.
- Shell Removal – Precision rollers and peeling units separate the shells while protecting the meat.
- Washing & Cleaning – Peeled shrimp are rinsed to remove any remaining shell fragments.
- Output & Transfer – Clean shrimp are discharged to conveyors for freezing, grading, or packaging.
👉 In short, the machine turns raw deheaded shrimp into ready-to-cook peeled shrimp, at scale and with minimal human labor.
