Abstract---Lobster is a product of the fishery sector which has a very
high selling value, fishermen in coastal areas, especially in the
Pangandaran area, sell the catch on traditional markets and are
exported overseas. The expensive lobster selling value is inversely
proportional to the income received by fishermen, the problems faced
are influenced by several factors, namely whether, fishing regulations,
and technology used, lobster sales will increase if the sales process if
fishermen can sort and sort lobster sized large, which has a very high
export value, the problems faced by fishermen currently sell directly to
the fish market or buyers without going through the grading process.
The grading system can be done manually but this causes the lobster
to become not fresh because of the fairly long sorting process. The
sorting and grading system method is a must so that a sold lobster
possesses export value and quality, some large fishermen use a very
large and fairly expensive sorting tool and are only owned by
