Citrus juice extractor for industrial juice production
In large-scale citrus juice production facilities, maintaining a high yield and superior juice quality is essential. Traditional extraction methods often compromise the quality by allowing prolonged contact with peel oil and other components, leading to off-flavors and lower yields.
Efficient separation for high-quality citrus juice
The JBT Citrus Juice Extractor is designed to meet the demands of industrial juice production. The equipment employs a unique whole-fruit extraction principle, ensuring instantaneous separation of juice from peel oil and other constituents that may affect quality. It processes various citrus fruits like oranges, tangerines, and limes, with different models optimized for fruit sizes ranging from 25 mm to 140 mm in diameter. The system is highly efficient, processing up to 800 pieces of fruit per minute with model-specific features tailored for different operational needs. Notably, the Model 593 is ideal for high-volume facilities, offering statistically significant yield increases and improved feed efficiency. The equipment’s design has earned it recognition as an International Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
