Crushing mill for berries and stone fruits

Optimize your juice production by achieving the finest mash from berries and stone fruits, ensuring reduced suspended solids and minimized oxidation for superior quality end products.

Crushes and Grinds Berries and Stone Fruits

The KVS 2-80 Crushing Mill from Bucher Unipektin is expertly designed for transforming berries and stone fruits into exceptionally fine mash, ideal for juice production and food processing applications. This roller mill utilizes contra-rotating steel rollers with adjustable gaps to efficiently reduce particle size and minimize product oxidation, enhancing the purity and quality of the final product.

Capable of processing between 8 to 12 tons per hour, its adaptable crushing settings ensure optimal particle consistency for producing juice concentrates, purees, and jam bases. Equipped with an asynchronous motor and frequency converter, the mill offers automatic torque protection to prevent damage from foreign object intrusion and auto-shutdown features for enhanced safety.

Constructed from stainless steel (DIN 1.4301), the mill ensures contamination-free processing of food-grade products. Integration into existing lines is seamless, with its continuous, adjustable operation being suitable for pre-processing and processing stages. The KVS 2-80 is designed to support high throughput operations with minimized energy consumption, thanks to its advanced motor control, setting a new standard in fruit processing efficiency.
