Standard equipment

The machinery, in standard version, is made up by the following components:
A. A stainless steel cylindrical horizontal vat, the two extremities of which are closed by two rounded bottoms.

  • On the back rounded bottom a motor-reducer system is housed by means of a special joint where there are also a motor reducer and the Oxygen inlet.
  • On the front rounded bottom, removable by his coupling flange, at the centre of a circular port, there’s a ball valve suitable to load and unload the marc during the motion of the internal punched cylinder;
  • On the same rounded bottom there are: an electric control board, equipped with an inverter and a macro-oxygenator, ball valves for total and partial draining, a level indicator, thermometers and a sample valve;
  • On the cylindrical body there are: an insulated cooling jacket, a small inspection manhole, a stainless steel rectangular inspection manhole (dimensions =mm 400x500), the double effect ventilation valve;
  • At the top of internal side of cylindrical body, there is a stainless steel pipe, punched in such a way to sprinkle water during the washing phase of internal cylinder.
    The cylindrical vat is supported by two stainless steel saddles properly shaped.


B. An entirely punched cylinder (the extremities are closed by a rounded bottom and by
a truncated - cone bottom) rotates by means of ball bearings.
These bearings come never into contact with the product to be processed.

  • Inside punched cylinder there is a stainless steel archimedean screw which favours the ejection of the exhaust marc.
  • On the top of internal punched cylinder, a sliding port (just next to the loading manhole of cylindrical vat) lets the inspection of the internal side of punched cylinder.
  • Along the external surface of punched cylinder there is the washing punched pipe. The connection with this pipe is possible through the proper knockdown rotary joint included in the current accessories.
