Pulp separation system for citrus and pomegranate juices
In juice production, achieving consistent pulp-free juice requires advanced separation techniques. Major challenges include effectively removing thick pulp and refining the juice without affecting its nutritional value or taste.
Efficient pulp removal and juice refining
The ZPF Paddle Finisher by Zumex is a specialized pulp separation system designed to eliminate thick pulp and refine juice through a high-speed paddle mechanism. It features a two-stage filter system that controls humidity in the waste and regulates the extraction phase. The filter uses three high-speed rotating paddles to push the product through a perforated stainless steel mesh, adjustable according to production needs. The standard mesh perforation diameter is 0.8 mm, offering flexibility in refining the pulp. The system also incorporates a counterweight humidity control for optimal waste management. Suitable for various citrus and pomegranate juices, this equipment ensures efficient extraction and pulp refinement. Zumex Food Engineering supplies the ZPF Paddle Finisher.
