Industrial belt press for fruit and vegetable processing
Optimize your juice yield and reduce drying costs in starch and vegetable milk production with a robust belt press that enhances dewatering efficiency while ensuring product integrity.

Extracts and Presses Juices and Starches
The Flottweg Belt Press is a robust solution engineered for beverage and food processing industries, specifically designed for efficient dewatering and pressing of juices and starches. This German-manufactured belt press excels in extracting high dry matter content, ensuring reduced transport and drying costs. It uses a multi-stage pressing system where a series of decreasing diameter rollers apply increasing pressure, effectively extracting liquid. Ideal applications include apple juice and potato starch production, with capabilities extending to almond milk and biodiesel. It processes continuously with automatic belt regulation, optimizing operation with minimal manual effort. Crafted from high-grade stainless steel, it offers excellent durability and hygiene, supported by a CIP spray system for thorough cleaning. The InGo operator interface facilitates seamless integration into existing production lines, ensuring high process reliability and safety. Flottweg additionally provides customization and engineering support to tailor the belt press to specific operational needs.
