With over 40 years of experience (established in 1982), TACORE is the worldwide benchmark in the design and manufacture of complete lines for the canning industry (tuna, sardine, pelagic species and seafood).
Backed by this demanding know-how, we apply our advanced engineering to the whole food sector and to other industrial sectors that require automation, robustness and strict hygiene. We develop custom solutions —from vacuum cookers and retorts to packing systems and robotic cells— built entirely in AISI 304L and AISI 316L stainless steel, ensuring maximum durability and operational reliability for global projects in more than 18 countries.
Building upon our rigorous expertise in the canning industry, we apply our mastery of AISI 304L / 316L stainless steel, proprietary automation, and sanitary design across key industrial manufacturing sectors:
Turnkey continuous lines for tuna, sardine, shellfish, and pelagic species. Vacuum cookers maximizing meat yield, precision steam retorts with digital thermal control, ergonomic cleaning tables, and high-speed robotic packing systems.
Hygienic solutions for vegetables, ready-meals, sauces, meats, and frozen products. Stainless steel sanitary conveyors, precision liquid dispensers (oils, sauces, brines), crate washers, and continuous pasteurizers compliant with CE, IFS, and BRC standards.
Dedicated engineering for handling and conveying tinplate and aluminum cans, empty or filled. High-throughput magnetic and sweep depalletizers, low-friction conveyors preventing varnish scratching, can washers-dryers, and case packing without deformation.
In-house automation engineering: we build our own electrical panels and program the PLCs and operator panels (HMI) of every machine, for any industrial sector, which lets us adapt the solution to each customer’s needs. We integrate robotic cells and real-time remote telemetry and diagnostics, with a design 100% adapted to the layout of each plant.
Continuous throughput and yield optimization through custom engineering and heavy-duty AISI 304L / 316L stainless steel.
On-site and remote technical assistance, preventive maintenance, and rapid dispatch of genuine spare parts globally.
Telemetry, remote diagnostics, and automated PLC control to ensure maximum plant uptime and operational safety.
Multidisciplinary engineering team accompanying your project from initial conception through on-site start-up.
Turnkey solutions engineered around target fish species, can formats, plant layout constraints, and CE standards.
Specialized engineering tailored to every phase of canning operations
Continuous systems for thawing, vacuum steam static cooking, ergonomic cleaning tables, and precision dosing packing lines.
Integrated plants for heading, gutting, brine freezing tunnels down to -18 °C, and semi-automatic sardine canning lines.
Industrial steam and superheated water autoclaves, robotic basket loading/unloading, can washing, and packaging systems.
Innovation, R&D&I projects, and key international trade fairs
European machinery safety rules are being updated. The TACORE team trained with SMC Spain on the new Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 and the role of pneumatics in machine safety.
Lines engineered and manufactured by TACORE for every stage of canning:
Static vacuum cookers and a tuna cleaning line with traceability and per-operator control.
Articulated robots for loading and unloading retort baskets.
Continuous brine freezing at -18 °C and can packing.
Continuous washing, drying and wraparound case packing.
Open innovation and canning machinery engineering in consortium with premier research bodies: CITEGA, ANFACO-CECOPESCA, University of Vigo, ASIME, CDTI, and GAIN.
Industrial gateways engineered under a 100% secure lifecycle, with end-to-end encryption and plant network isolation.
