INTELLIGENT PRESSING PROGRAM CONTROL

INTELLIGENT PRESSING PROGRAM CONTROL

Our Drain control is monitoring the juice drainage throughout the entire pressing process and constantly optimizing the pressing pressures. This leads to highly efficient pressing that ensures optimal and a most gentle juice extraction. 
►In conjunction with level control and 1/3 juice tray

Cooling Jacket WITH HIGH EFFICIENCY

cooling jacket

WITH HIGH EFFICIENCY

  • Keeping temperatures low during maceracion times
  • For pre-cooling the pressing drum before filling
  • Warming up of too cold grapes

Laser welded pillow plates create a large temperature control zone on the pressing drum. Cooling can either be done with water, water-glycol-mixture or glycol.

COOLING JACKET WITH EXTERNAL INSULATION

COOLING JACKET WITH EXTERNAL INSULATION

  • Insulation layer in stainless-steel for the cooling jacket
  • Hygienic design
  • Cold or heat transfer to the press drum can be conducted much more efficiently
  • Enormous energy savings

The insulation layer makes it possible, for almost 90% of the refrigerating energy to be applied directly to the press drum. The stainless steel cover plates are welded at the seams and thus ensure rapid and economic cleansing operations.

Level control

Level control

FOR THE JUICE TRAY

  • Version with one stick electrode in stainless steel
  • Including control and connection for juice pumps
  • Automatic interruption of the pressing program when the juice tray is overfilled

The level control analyzes how quickly the juice level rises and then automatically starts the pump before reaching the actual switch-on point.

Press Systems


OPEN PRESS SYSTEM

EUROPRESS MODEL EP1 20-200 hl

In an open press system, one side of the press drum has very narrow conical slots. The shape and arrangement of these slots guarantees the highest juice quality and prevents the slots from clogging tray.

YOUR ADVANTAGE

  • Gentle pressing
  • Large filling door opening
  • Easy to clean
  • Efficient pressing times due to large juice draining surface

CLOSED PRESS SYSTEM

EUROPRESS MODEL EP2 20-200 hl

In a closed press system, the press drum is equipped with hinged or removable draining channels with very narrow slots. Through the outlet slots, the juice flows directly into the juice pan.

YOUR ADVANTAGE

  • Gentle pressing
  • Large juice draining surface
  • Perfectly suited for must holding time and must fermentation
  • Easy to clean due to hinged or removable interior juice channels

DUAL PRESS SYSTEM

EUROPRESS MODEL EP3 20-200 hl

The dual press system combines the advantages of an open and closed system. Thus, the grape-pressing process can either take place in an open or closed system - depending on your needs. The juice channels mounted on the press drum exterior can be removed or mounted in just a few simple steps, thus providing for long-time flexibility of the chosen press system.

YOUR ADVANTAGE

  • The system combines the advantages of an open and closed system
  • The exterior juice channels can be easily removed
  • Long-term flexibility for the chosen press system
  • Easy to clean
