Technical data

half-open system

The open pressing system has a maximum juice drainage surface, due to the slots on one side of the press drum. Because of the arrangement and shape of the slots, the juice quality is certain and clogging of the slots os prevented.

Sizes

20 hl, 27 hl, 34 hl, 44 hl, 52 hl, 65 hl (ohne Erhöhungen)
80 hl, 100 hl, 120 hl, 150 hl (inkl. Erhöhungen)
200 hl (inkl. Erhöhungen)

Your advantages

large infill opening
gentle pressing
short pressing time due to large juice drainage surface
easily accessible for easy and thorough cleaning

tank press

In the closed pressing system the press drum has juice channels on the inside of the drum which are easy disassembled or hinged. These juice channels have narrow slots that allow the pressed juice to flow directly through the juice drain spouts into the juice tray.

Sizes

20 hl, 27 hl, 34 hl, 44 hl, 52 hl, 65 hl, 80 hl, 100 hl, 120 hl, 150 hl, 200 hl

Your advantages

gentle pressing
excellent for maceration and mash fermentation
easy cleaning of the hinged or disassembled juice channels

dual pressing system

The dual press system combines the advantages of the open and closed press systems. You can press with the open or closed pressing sytsem as needed. Juice channels, which can be mounted on the outside of the press drum, are easy to assemble/disassemble, offering long-term flexibility.

Sizes

20 hl, 27 hl, 34 hl, 44 hl, 52 hl, 65 hl, 80 hl, 100 hl, 120 hl, 150 hl, 200 hl

Your advantages

long-term flexibility regarding the pressing system
easy cleaning
gentle pressing
large juice drainage surface
excellent for maceration and mash fermentation
simple and toolfree assembly of the juice channels

drain control

intelligent press program control
only in conjunction with level control and 1/3 juice tray

The juice drainage is monitored 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.

cool cooling jacket

cooling jacket
Cooling the grapes or mash and maintaining the temperature
For pre-cooling the pressing drum before filling
Warming up of too cold grapes

There is a large-area tempering zone on the press tank jacket made of laser-welded pillow plate for effective cooling/heating. The cooling jacket can be filled with water, water/glycol or glycol.

cool insulated

cooling jacket with external insulation
cover plates made of stainless steel
precise cold/heat transfer to the press
high efficiency
energy saving

Almost 90% of the refrigerating energy impacts directly on the press drum due to the external insulation. The stainless steel cover plates are welded at the seams and thus ensure rapid and economic cleansing operations.

temp-control

This system gives the operator the ability to pre-select the desired grape or must temperature for further processing. The pressing program is started under control once the pre-set temperature is reached.

flow divide

Juice separation into three grades
Selection based on pressure stage

air pulse

Cleaning with compressed air/water mixture
efficient cleaning processes
not available in combination with inert ECO option

inert ECO

inert gas blanketing of the press drum
Not available in combination with air pulse option.

The press drum can be preloaded with inert gas. This makes it possible to have longer maceration times in the absence of atmospheric oxygen. During the pressing process, inert gas flows in during vacuum drawing. The possibility of conventional pressing still exists.

inert Pro

fully automatic inert gas function

The inert gas system ensures absolutely reductive pressing processes. By modifying the supply and exhaust air paths on the press drum, the juice channel system as well as the hermetically sealed juice tray ensure that the juice comes into contact only with the inert gas during the entire pressing process.
