RECEIVING HOPPERS
The range of PERA hoppers is suitable for any type of installation and allows a regular supply of grapes to the destemming and sorting equipment.
“We have a PERA vibrating hopper to receive the grapes. We chose this equipment to feed the grapes into the H600 destemmer to make sure all the stems were separated from the grapes. This high quality hopper is robust and reliable. The grapes pass through at a rate of approximately 25 tonnes per hour which enables us to deal with our entire harvest easily. “

VIBRATING HOPPERS
Our vibrating hoppers are designed to feed any destemming and sorting system after harvesting. The grapes are preserved thanks to the vibrating unloading system.
PERA hoppers are equipped with:
- • Vibrating hopper assembled on silent blocks
- • AISI 304 Stainless steel structure
- • On/off switch
- • Emergency stop push button
- • Water-tight door actuated by pneumatic cylinders
ARCHIMEDES SCREW HOPPERS: HORIZONTAL / TILTED
Archimedes screw hoppers feed directly on to the destemmer at a constant, optimised speed. The wide diameter screw preserves the grapes.
Archimedes screw hoppers can be horizontal or tilted according to the requirements in your facility. They are equipped with :
- • AISI 304 3mm stainless steel hopper
- • 5mm stainless steel screw, Ø 400 mm
- • Water drain plug, Ø 50 mm
- • MIG welded
- • Electric motor
RANGE
*Flow rates depend on grape variety, type of harvest (manual or mechanical), and health of the grapes, etc.
Tipping screw hoppers
These hoppers can supply a destemmer system. They are fitted
with a screw which is fed gradually with the harvested grapes,
as the hopper swings.
Available only made-to-measure.
Dejuicing rake hoppers
These hoppers allow a significant amount of quality juice (less
oxidation) to be drained from the harvest with their very wide
drainage surface. They are used to optimise the press filling
process for mechanical harvesting.
Available only made-to-measure.
