Benefits of Pellenc Optimum
- Unique post detection features which results in an average reduction from 4% to 1% in overall post breakages
- Mesh belts that takes all juice and loose berries directly up to the sorting tables, never passing a fan, resulting in virtually zero loss of juice and small berries. This function alone increases yield 3-4% over previous 8000 series Pellenc machines
- The Selective Process 2 de-stemmer and sorting table is where the latest generation Pellenc leaves its competitors totally behind. The Selective Process 2 uses a patented system to carefully destem all berries and sort all MOG (Matter other than Grape) from the pick before it hits the onboard bins
- The Pellenc 890 has a 95° turn angle. This allows it to turn completely back on itself and navigate the tightest of row ends
