Employment Field and Functioning principle

Tecnno-Press of "Industrie Fracchiolla S.r.l." has been designed and built according to the requirements of wine making experts, in order to obtain a very refined quality product.
It lets to develop a delicate and soft pressing of all entire or pressed grapes and of fermented marc.
Once the product is inside the tank (introduced by rectangular doors or by an axial duct), it is pressed, against the punched channels fixed on the internal surface of tank, by a waterproof bladder.
The obtained must comes out from the tank by the draining slots on the cylindrical body and is collected in the proper vat which is under the press.
The marc discharging is developed opening, also partially, the proper discharging doors.

Main qualities of soft press

Draining of the must, by marc or grapes, in a very delicate way reducing to the minimum quantity the growth of dregs;
Draining of the must long before the pressing thanks to the slot surfaces;
Raw material used, thanks to his components, lets the machinery to be

• resistant to the substances introduced
• suitable to contain foodstuffs liquid.

Pressing

The machinery can be set with two different programs, both defined by the user:

• Automatic pressing program
• Automatic pressing program

In automatic pressing program the press can be set with 6 different routines, already available, but anyway they can be changed by the user.
In sequential pressing program 3 different routines are available on the machinery and again they can be changed by the user.
In automatic pressing the programming is defined setting 4 functions referred to 5 adjustable cycles:
T1 - draining;
T2 - low pressure pressing;
T3 and T4 - incremental pressure pressing;
T5 - top pressure pressing.

In sequential pressing program the press allows to set variable cycles according to 3 parameters: working pressure, duration of top pressure set inside the bladder and rounds number of the tank for product crumbling.

Loading

Techno-Press is currently equipped with an axial horizontal loading system for grapes (without stalk) and for fermented marc. It is a very useful system that lets to spare a lot of time during filling and dynamic draining. Loading by the doors (with pneumatic opening) is advised for grapes bunches. The doors are air proof thanks to the particular pneumatic gaskets.

Control panel

All the programming and control operations of Techno-Press can be developed by a touch-screen display. Alarms are emphasized by acoustic and visual signals which can be recognized at a short distance.

Draining

Draining is developed by the punched channels (wide surface) fixed into the tank and conveyed to the collecting vat by which is automatically sucked with flexible impeller pump. The collecting vat is equipped with sliding wheels which lets to make washing very simply.

Marc unloading

Unloading is developed by pneumatic opening doors during tank rotation. Doors opening can be adjusted choosing the proper position: according to the type of product to be unloaded. (Grape bunches, pressed grapes, marc, and so on.) to synchronize the machinery with the eventual tapie roulant. The particular shape of supporting structure allows the installation of it to bring.
