ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure is directed to an improved method and machine for peeling shrimp for the fantail and butterfly shrimp market in which only certain desired segments of the shrimp shell are removed from the raw uncooked shrimp. The method assumes that prior to peeling the desired shell segments 1 through 5 from the raw shrimp that the back of the shrimp shell of segments 1 through 5 has been cut open and the condyle hinges between shell segments 5 and 6 have been broken. In the method of this disclosure the shrimp are fed lengthwise and individually one after another to a friction type peeling nip of short length. The rollers forming the nip are rotated in opposite directions during the peeling action and simultaneously while being peeled the individual shrimp is induced to move lengthwise along and beyond the peeling nip with its shell being pinched off from the ventral side of the shrimp meat in a progressive manner and sequentially one segment after another along its length except for the tail and sixth segment which are not exposed to the peeling action of the nip.
