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

  • 1 hl, 3 hl, 6 hl, 9 hl, 15 hl, 20 hl, 27 hl, 34 hl, 44 hl, 52 hl, 60 hl, 80 hl, 100 hl, 120 hl, 150 hl, 200hl, 250hl, 320 hl

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

  • 1 hl, 3 hl, 6 hl, 9 hl, 15 hl, 20 hl, 27 hl, 34 hl, 44 hl, 52 hl, 60 hl, 80 hl, 100 hl, 120 hl, 150 hl, 200hl, 250hl, 320 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

  • 15 hl, 20 hl, 27 hl, 34 hl, 44 hl, 52 hl, 60 hl, 80 hl, 100 hl, 120 hl, 150 hl, 200hl, 250hl, 320 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
