Fish Processing Machinery Service & Repair
Fish processing machinery is our core business.
Every day, our technicians source, rebuild, refurbish and supply equipment for the fish processing industry — work that gives us direct, hands-on knowledge of the machines, components and technical problems found in processing plants across Norway and Europe.
That daily contact with real machines, not just spare parts catalogues, is what sets a specialist service apart from a general repair business.
Experience That Makes a Difference
Over the years, we have repaired and serviced fish processing machinery from a wide range of brands, including Baader, Marel, Carnitech, SEPAmatic, Busch, Fomaco, Kronborg, Josmar, Marelec, and many others – including rare and long-discontinued models. As a result, our specialists have accumulated extensive expertise in troubleshooting and repairing equipment of virtually any type and vintage.
Some jobs are quick and straightforward; others demand real troubleshooting and testing. Either way, we learn something we carry forward. This mix of deep, hands-on familiarity and constant exposure to new problems is what shapes our expertise. Every project — easy or difficult — adds to a growing base of practical knowledge, so when something unfamiliar comes up, we’re rarely starting from scratch. It’s this breadth of experience, built job by job, that we bring to every service, repair and refurbishment we take on.
This experience also means we can help with machinery you didn’t buy from us. You don’t need to have purchased a machine from Normar to use our service.
If equipment is no longer performing as it should, needs maintenance, or requires a complete overhaul, we can assess it and recommend the most appropriate solution — remotely or at your facility, depending on the situation.
Fish Processing Machine Service & Repair
We provide service and repair for fish processing machinery operating in production facilities across Norway and Europe — from a single troubleshooting call to a complete machine overhaul. After inspecting the equipment, we assess its condition and identify the components or systems that need attention.
Our service can include:
- Machine inspection and condition assessment
- Troubleshooting and fault identification
- Mechanical repairs
- Electrical repairs
- Replacement of worn or damaged components
- Machine adjustment and calibration
- Preventive maintenance
- Complete machine overhaul
- Refurbishment of equipment
- Functional and performance testing
- On-site service
- Spare parts recommendations
We don’t simply repair a faulty component. We look at the condition and functionality of the equipment as a whole, and recommend a solution suited to the machine and how it’s actually used.
On-Site Service and Technical Assistance
When a problem can’t be resolved remotely, our technicians travel to the customer’s facility where possible. On-site service may include inspection, troubleshooting, adjustment, component replacement, and assistance with repairs or maintenance.
Because our technicians work with fish processing machinery in our own workshop every day, they bring practical knowledge of how these machines are built, operated and refurbished straight into an on-site problem — not just theory from a manual.
For customers further away, we coordinate service visits with other work in the same region where possible, helping keep on-site service cost-effective across Northern Norway and beyond.
Remote Technical Support and Troubleshooting
Not every problem needs a technician on-site.
For technical questions and operational issues, we offer support by phone and remote communication. Depending on the situation, our team can help identify possible causes, explain what to check, and guide you through troubleshooting step by step.
Photos, videos, machine documentation and information from the production site often help us understand a problem before any service visit is arranged — letting us determine quickly whether it can be resolved remotely or needs an on-site inspection or repair.
Machine Documentation and Technical Information
When we supply refurbished equipment, we provide relevant documentation with it, including available manuals and photographs taken during the rebuilding process.
This gives customers a clear picture of the equipment and the work carried out before delivery — and the photographs from refurbishment often serve as a useful reference for future maintenance and troubleshooting.
Where available, manuals and technical documentation help operators and maintenance staff understand the machine, identify components, and carry out routine checks correctly.
For service work on existing equipment, documentation and photographs from the customer side are just as valuable — they help our team assess the machine and prepare properly before a service visit.
Preventive Maintenance
Regular inspection and maintenance help identify worn components and potential problems before they cause unexpected downtime. Based on the condition of the equipment, we identify components that may need replacement, recommend maintenance work, and flag spare parts to consider for future service.
Preventive maintenance can help:
- Reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns
- Extend the working life of equipment
- Maintain stable production performance
- Identify worn components before they cause larger problems
- Plan maintenance and spare parts purchases in advance
Machine Overhaul and Refurbishment
Complete refurbishment and overhaul of fish processing machinery is one of our core areas of expertise.
Every machine entering our workshop is thoroughly inspected. Depending on its condition, critical components are repaired, replaced or refurbished, mechanical and electrical systems are checked, necessary repairs carried out, and the machine tested before it’s approved for delivery.
This experience also gives us a strong understanding of how older fish processing machinery can be restored and maintained rather than replaced unnecessarily.
A properly planned overhaul or refurbishment is often a practical way to extend the useful life of existing equipment and keep production performance where it needs to be.
Spare Parts Recommendations
Service and maintenance work often surfaces components that should be replaced — either immediately or during a future maintenance period. When appropriate, we provide recommendations for required or recommended spare parts based on the actual condition of the machine.
This helps customers:
- Identify worn or critical components
- Plan future maintenance
- Reduce the risk of unexpected downtime
- Order the necessary parts together with scheduled service
Our recommendations are based on the actual condition of the machine, helping customers prioritise which parts should be replaced now and which can be planned for replacement later.
Support After Machine Delivery
Our involvement doesn’t end when a machine leaves our workshop.
After delivery, we remain available for technical questions and troubleshooting. If you need assistance during installation or when putting a machine into operation, we provide remote support and, where possible, on-site assistance.
Our goal is simple: that equipment supplied by Normar keeps performing as intended, and that customers have the technical knowledge they need to operate and maintain it with confidence.
Why Choose Normar for Fish Processing Machinery Service?
Our service is built on the same expertise we use when rebuilding the equipment we supply. We don’t treat fish processing machinery service as general repair work. It’s our daily focus — which means our technicians and workshop staff work with these machines, their components, and their typical wear and failure points on a regular basis.
That practical experience lets us assess not just the immediate fault, but the overall condition of the equipment and the most appropriate way to restore its functionality and reliability, for the long term.
Whether you need help troubleshooting a machine, repairing a specific component, carrying out preventive maintenance, or planning a complete overhaul, Normar can assess your requirements and recommend a solution that fits — with the local presence and personal follow-up of a Northern Norway-based team.
