DESCRIZIONE
The invention relates to a fish-supplying device (10), which is designed to supply fish (13) to a plurality of fish-processing devices and comprises: a transverse conveyor (14), which is designed to convey the fish (13) transversely to the head-tail orientation thereof in a transverse conveying direction (15), wherein the transverse conveyor (14) comprises a plurality of holding elements (17), each of which is designed to individually hold one of the fish (13), and the transverse conveyor (14) has a controllable drive unit (19); at least one loading device (11), which is designed to load the holding elements (17) of the transverse conveyor (14) with the fish; a plurality of transfer devices (16), which are designed to selectively transfer the fish (13) from the transverse conveyor to the longitudinal conveyors (12) arranged before the respective fish-processing devices, wherein the longitudinal conveyors (12) are designed to convey the fish (13) along the head-tail orientation thereof to the fish-processing machines; and a control device, which is designed to control the at least one loading device (11), the transfer devices (16), and the conveying speed of the transverse conveyor (14) on the basis of at least one predefined adjustment specification. The invention further relates to a corresponding method for supplying fish.
