Abstract
A squid processing machine supports and specially positions a squid. The squid is treated by being severed into three longitudinally separate tentacle, eye or head, and body portions. The tentacle portion is released into one zone and the eye portion is released into another zone. The body portion is impaled on a peg and is rotated and subjected to external water jets that remove the skin, which is discarded, and to internal water jets that remove the viscera, which are discarded. The remaining body portion is ejected from the peg and is directed away from the treatment portion of the machine.
