For sea-based aquaculture sites, robust feed dispensers are delivered that can be mounted on both docks and feed barges. They are developed for the harsh coastal environment and provide consistent, controlled feeding over time. The goal is stable operation and good feed utilization, with the simplest possible operation for those working at the facility. The dispensers can be adapted to different site configurations and production volumes, whether for new installations or upgrades.
In the smolt phase, precision and gentle handling are absolutely essential. Betten Maskinstasjon offers several types of smolt feeders designed for small feed sizes and frequent distribution. Combined with PLC control, the operations manager gains better oversight and can adjust the feeding regime as needed, resulting in more predictable growth and less manual labor.
Cleaner fish have become an important part of sea-lice management and require dedicated solutions for both feeding and handling. Specialized cleaner fish feeders and tailored equipment, such as transport boxes, are developed to ensure good welfare and to help the cleaner fish function well in the system over time.
Around the feeding systems themselves, Betten Maskinstasjon supplies a wide range of transport and accessory solutions – such as hose systems with swivels, splicing equipment, forklift filling units, trolleys, and lime feeders. Everything is developed based on practical experience from Norwegian aquaculture facilities, with emphasis on durability, easy maintenance, and tidy installations.
The result is comprehensive solutions that make feed handling, internal logistics, and daily operations more efficient. Less manual work, better control, and more stable feeding contribute to increased operational reliability and better use of resources. Betten Maskinstasjon excels at custom solutions and lives by the motto “The simple solution is often the best.”
