Industrial citrus juice extractor
Achieve high-yield juice extraction with reduced oil content, delivering premium quality citrus beverages while maximizing fruit utilization and minimizing waste.

Extracts and Separates Citrus and Multifruit Juices
The PJE from Zumex Food Engineering is a versatile extraction system for citrus and multifruit juices, catering to juice manufacturers and food processing companies. It efficiently separates juice, peel, and essential oils using an advanced multi-stage extraction and depulping process. This system supports diverse applications like orange, lemon, and pomegranate juice production, essential oil extraction, and hesperidin recovery. With a robust structure made from AISI 316 and AISI 304 stainless steel, it ensures durability and resistance to corrosion. The PJE handles continuous and semi-automatic operations, optimizing productivity with capabilities for integration into existing production lines. Its Premium System components reduce essential oil content in juice, increasing yield per fruit. Automation includes PLC control for streamlined operation, while CIP systems facilitate easy maintenance. Configurable cup sizes accommodate various fruit dimensions, offering tailored solutions to meet specific processing needs.
