The operating principle of the belt press is based on the continuous processing of raw materials: the crushed fruit mass is fed onto a moving belt directly from the crusher and is gradually compressed between rotating rollers or two belts.
During pressing, the juice flows into containers located under the press, while the pressed pomace is removed automatically. This principle ensures continuous operation of the equipment, which is especially important when processing large volumes of raw materials.
Belt presses are most often used as part of automated lines for the production of not-from-concentrate juices. Depending on the model, their capacity can range from 400 to 3000 kg of apples per hour, making them one of the most efficient solutions for industrial processing.
Thanks to the uniform and gradual increase in pressure, the equipment provides a high juice yield and a good degree of clarification with minimal solid particle content. Built-in automation systems and belt washing simplify operation and maintenance.
Belt presses are ideally suited for processing apples, pears, berries, and other fruits, ensuring high efficiency, reliability, and consistent results during intensive operation.
