Beverages

Whether during the production of fruit and vegetable juices, beer, coffee, vine, or spirits - mechanical liquid - fluid separation is a decisive process step in the beverage production.

High quality, optimum yields, and - what is getting more and more important - gentle treatment of natural resources are thereby critical factors. Flottweg machines meet these demands to a great extent.

Flottweg belt presses are used for the continuous extraction of fruit and vegetable mash. They stand out with an efficient, well thought out design with easy accessibility for operation and maintenance. A pneumatic belt-control system ensures reliable operation with minimal manpower.

Flottweg disc stack centrifuges of the AC series separate trub from juices, beer, coffee, vine and must, the separated trub having a very high solids content. Flottweg separators enable exactly reproducible partial discharges as well as partial and total discharges in any combination.

Flottweg Decanters are used everywhere where liquids with a high solids content have to be clarified. They are used for the continuous extraction of fruit mash and can process suspensions with a high trub content like retentates or flotation mud. Flottweg Decanters also work most successfully in the continuous clarification of waste water.

In order to meet highest hygienic demands, Flottweg machines for the beverage industry are made out of stainless steel. Moreover, they work continuously and automatically and can be individually adapted to each separation task.
