EnoItalia Apple Belt Press
The EnoItalia single belt presses are a modern design that allows for continuous, efficient processing of crushed fruit. Most often used with apples but suitable for other fruits and vegetables as well. With apples, the juice yield is approximately 75%. Enoitalia Belt Presses are often integrated with a separate Enoitalia fruit washer and loader that washes the apples and then loads them systematically into the belt press. The washer/loader, connected to the belt press by electronic cable, is turned off and on to maintain a consistent supply of fruit. Features: PVC belt pressing against drums provides 75% efficiency Includes an innovative integrated pump and juice collection tank, saving money and reducing complexity Juice collection tank features an integrated filtration sieve providing clearer and purer product The belt presses work automatically: when the mash inlet tank is full, all other machines which come before the belt press turn off automatically. When the juice tank is full, the pump automatically pumps the juice into the tanks The belt press includes a high-pressure washer, which continuously washes the machine's belt. The belt washing system is simple, and does not contain any engines or reducers, so it prolongs the use time and saves on service cost The safety cover can be easily opened which makes the washing process of the machine easier. The 800 & 1200 models include a pneumatic opening because of the cover size. After use, the belt press should be manually washed with a water stream. A full washing process takes around 15-20 minutes. Washing is simple and all the parts of the belt press are easily removable without any tools Adjustable belt tension Frame is made of stainless steel with adjustable feet Easy to clean with no closed or inaccessible spaces, all parts are easy to assemble For more information, contact our Sales Team today.

EnoItalia Gamma Horizontal Press | Pneumatic Membrane Press | Stainless | 220V 3 Phase
The Gamma series pneumatic side membrane press is the ideal solution for obtaining superior product in the pressing of both freshly harvested grapes and fermented must. The presses are completely made of stainless steel, with a large central opening to facilitate both filling and emptying. The technology used allows the management of each pressing phase the highest quality output. PLC Screen Control Using the PLC screen you have access to 12 preset and 12 custom pressing programs as well as a fully manual option. The manual function allows for control of the drum rotation, compressor, and fan. The PLC touchscreen allows for individual control or you can utilize one of the 12 present programs. Want to customize the pressing cycle to your requirements? Save your parameters into one of the 12 available custom program slots. Sealed Drum This is a closed cylinder press which reduces oxidation during the pressing cycle to help ensure quality. Pressed juice exits the drum via drainage channels that are covered with slotted stainless steel screens. The very highest-end commercial presses use a similar closed cylinder system. The Gamma is easily cleaned at the end of the session by easily removing the internal drain channel screens, without the need for tools, through the wide access doors. An additional benefit of the sealed drum is that it is possible to use the press for all or part of a fermentation. Buffer Tank with Level Sensor The Gamma presses include a buffer tank with level sense at the bottom of the press. Via a separate control panel, an external single-phase Enotialia pump (not included) can be connected to turn off and on to move wine from the buffer tank into your storage tanks. The outlet of the buffer tank is 1.5" Tri-Clamp. Axial Load Valve All Gamma presses come standard with a 3" axial loading ball valve port on the cylinder that allows must to be pumped in. We consider this an essential feature on a press otherwise you are limited to dumping or pumping in through the top access doors. Pumping in through the bottom increases the volume you fit into the drum and reduces oxidation. Cleaning With the drain channel screens removed by hand the unit is easily washed internally from the large hatch doors. On very large presses there is a need for internal washing systems but on presses of this size they are easily washed through the large hatch access doors. Gamma presses have two drum drains for easier cleaning. A standard drain and then the 3" axial load valve acts as a second drain. Benefits: Simple controls Easy operations Completly Automated or Manual operation Features: Closed cylinder with drain canal / open perforated cylinder Double central sliding doors Collection tank conical floor with stainless valve for drain and filter Coaxial loading ball valve Control panel with PLC, and 5 automatic programs Manual mode Berker brand blade compressor Double fan for suction and inflation max 0.2 bar Rolling casters Stainless steel construction Safety cord for emergency stop Panel control with emergency stop 220V 60hz 3 Phase (neutral + 3 poles + ground)

EnoItalia Flexible Impeller Pump | Euro 60 | Must Pump | Self-Priming | Remote Control | Stainless Control Box & Trolley Cart | 100 GPM | 3 in. T.C. | 230V
Self-priming must pump with variable flow control from 0 to 100 gallons per minute Flexible rubber impeller gently pushes must and wine Stainless steel pump head with 3" tri-clamp connections Remote control operation with 30 ft. long cord Stainless steel control box Stainless steel rolling cart Made in Italy by EnoItalia This unit features a stainless steel control box not pictured in the primary image. Updated images coming soon. The Euro 60 Flexible Impeller pump is a 3" T.C. self-priming pump with a Stainless Steel head, controlled via a frequency inverter that allows for flow control from 0 - 100 gal / minute. These units can be controlled via the remote control on a 30' cord, or from the control panel mounted on the pump itself. Pumps are reversible, self-priming up to 15', and can be used with wine, juice, or must. The wheeled pump cart allows for easy movement and maneuverability around the winery or crushpad, and stainless steel construction insures that it'll survive through hectic wine seasons! Completely food grade components have no impact on the quality of the wine, and a low shear value due to the larger TC fittings. This pump is a true all around winery pump because it can be used with must and wine. If you have a commercial crush pad with a larger destemmer crusher like a Jolly40 or above, and you process small berries, you will want to consider the Gamma 80 as it works better with dry fruit (lots of skin and not as much flesh). However the Euro60 works well with most musts and then can be your work horse to move must and wine in the winery, making it a great value you can use year around. Although the Euro 60 is self-priming, the pump should never be run dry. Features: Stainless steel head with flexible rubber impeller Gear reduction for increased low speed torque Stainless steel cart Remote control Flow rate from 0 to 100 gpm Flow is reversible Max Pressure: 33 PSI (2.3 BAR) 3" Tri-Clover inlet and outlet 4KW/5.3HP motor Will work with 208v or 230v Single Phase Power 14 amp draw Recommended temperature range: 40 - 150°F (5 - 65°C) Made by Enoitalia of Europe Please note: the unit will arrive with a bare power cord. You will need an electrician to wire the appropriate plug.
