Industrial destoning solution for stone fruits
Efficiently separate stones from fruit pulp to enhance your production line and maximize output quality with our high-speed destoning machines.
Efficiently Separates and Processes Stone Fruits
The KEP series from Kreuzmayr Maschinenbau GmbH offers robust destoning machines tailored for high-demand fruit processing operations. Constructed entirely of stainless steel, these machines use a specially designed winged wheel to press fruit through a sieve drum with a tilted axle, effectively separating stones and debris. Available with varying sieve perforations, the KEP models are suitable for diverse applications, including cherry juice production, plum jam making, and apricot puree processing, accommodating capacities from 650 to 2500 kg per hour. Enhanced with features like electric operation, stepless speed regulation, and exchangeable components, these machines integrate seamlessly into continuous operations. With energy-efficient designs consuming power ranging from 4.0 kW/h to 15 kW/h and constructed for durability, the KEP series ensures reduced downtime and maintenance, making it a reliable choice for fruit processing companies, juice manufacturers, and distilleries.
