Premium Line K25AP - Electric Grape Destemmer with Stainless Steel Pump and Grate, Two Rubber Rollers

K25AP electric grape destemmer is equipped with stainless steel pump and sieve, guaranteeing efficient and hygienic operation. With a nominal power of 2.5 HP and metal gears, this machine offers reliable and durable performance.

The size of the hopper opening is 85 x 62 cm, allowing easy insertion of grapes for processing. With a maximum hourly output of 2500 kg/h, the K25AP is ideal for high-volume processing.

The destemmer is equipped with a 50 mm diameter connection system and garolla clamp, ensuring a secure and stable connection. The stainless steel pump, together with the stainless steel sieve, guarantee high-quality and hygienic workmanship.

The opening frame provides convenient accessibility for easy internal maintenance. In addition, the transmission protection casing is made of enamelled steel, ensuring strength and durability.

Another distinctive feature of this destemmer is the presence of the pair of rubber rollers for grapes pre-processing. These rollers perform a 'first squeeze' action, promoting the outflow of the first must through small cracks generated during the process.

The K25AP electric destemmer, with stainless steel pump and sieve and a pair of rubber rollers, is a quality product made in Italy that guarantees excellent performance in grape processing.

In all our semi-centrifugal destemmers:

• The pump is equipped with 2 stainless steel bearings.
• The upper auger support is made of nylon with a bronze insert.
• Painted with non-toxic polyester powder at a baking temperature of 200 degrees.

85 x 62 loading hopper

Compared to most grape crushers - destemmers on the market, this model features a special loading hopper designed for a more comfortable use. In fact, it is both larger, providing a greater practical opening, and located lower compared to standard hoppers.

These features greatly facilitate the operation of dropping the grapes into the hopper, whether you are using crates or other systems to tip them into the grape crusher - destemmer.

Focus on the inner auger screw for dragging the grapes to be crushed.

Focus on the handle for transport and loading hopper opening.

The K25AP grape destemmer is one of the few machines fitted with two counter-rotating rollers . They carry out a “first pressing” of the grapes by slightly crushing them and allowing the extraction of the first pomace.

The great innovation that makes this semi-centrifugal destemmer stand out from other models, is brought by the rollers which are made of solid food-grade rubber, and not of plastic or aluminium like other machines on the market. The rigidity of plastic or aluminium rollers tends to crush the grapes more, with the risk of higher final acidity of the wine.

Powerful 2.5 Hp electric induction motor, which enables all the various mechanical components to be operated with a grater power range than the machine actually draws in all its functions.

Equipped with a red STOP emergency button, compliant with CE safety regulations.

Motor adjustment by means of a rotating bracket mounted on pin and adjustment screw: it allows automatic and quick adjustment of the side transmission belt, should it tend to stretch a little over the years.

Focus on the adjustment screw

The side chain and gear drive transmits the rotary motion from the motor to:

- the upper auger
- the intermediate rotor
- the rollers
- the lower auger screw that drags the grapes all the way up to the pump
- the pump

Side transmission protective case guard also built in enamelled steel (all the grape destemmers on the market mount plastic case guards, which are very prone to breakage, given the weight and type of use of the machine.)

The belt drive acts as a clutch, in the event of a jam in the machine itself, and transmits motion to the pump.

All gears are made of metal. Most grape destemmers on the market are generally equipped with plastic gears. This model mounts high-density nylon gears only for the transmission of the motion to the rubber rollers.

Focus on the gear drive connected to the rollers

Unlike the vast majority of models on the market, this grape destemmer is equipped with a detachable frame that can be quickly opened by means of the dedicated locking hinges.

Advantages:
- it can be immediately inspected during use (in case of clogs, to remove debris, etc...)
- higher level of hygiene, allowing thorough cleaning and washing of the machine before and after destemming work.

Focus on the stops made of high-density Teflon, much more resistant and durable than classic rubber stops.

Focus on the hinges

Focus on the handle for opening the grape destemmer

The grate can be removed with extreme ease for cleaning operations, thanks to the guides that also act as protection for the grate itself.

Focus on the rotor with paddles in enamelled steel that carries out the destemming process (by pressing the grapes on the grate).

Upper stainless steel grate fixing cover. The cover features two lower guides to which the grate is fixed and on which it slides when it is removed. This grate cover, in addition to serve as a sturdy support for the grate, it closes the grate at the top so that all the bunches of grapes fed through the loading hopper remain well grouped inside the crusher, and are then pushed towards the grate by the rotating rotor with paddles and are perfectly processed.

Top quality, large-sized pump made in STAINLESS STEEL. This machine is intended for pumping all the grapes and the pomace towards the container.

Focus on the auger screw (placed at the bottom of the machine under the stainless steel grate). It drags all the final product to the pump, which then transfers it to the containers.

Equipped with Garolla fitting with gasket and clamp (included with the machine).
