The Peach Pitter model 320 APA feeds, aligns and pits “freestone” and “clingstone” peaches, at a speed of up to 320 fruits per minute.
The new continuous automatic orientating system achieves a percentage of good aligning of 90%-95%. Minimum reprocessing is required thanks to the knife pitting principle. Superior alignment efficiency, combined with a gentle handling of soft (ripe) fruits, results in maximization of the amount of halves correctly pitted.
The new automatic continuous water-lubricated orientation system achieves a percentage of good aligning equal to the torque pitting system and doesn’t need manpower, unlike the discontinuous aligning system. The high percentage of well aligned peaches, combined with the knife pitting system, guarantees the absence of whole pits and pit fragments and a reduced employ of manpower during the inspection and reprocessing operations of the pitted peaches.
The knife pitting system guarantees:
• High capacity
• The best pitting performances compared to other systems
• Smooth cut thanks to high speed spinning knives, minimum downtime during the campaign for knive replacement; lower costs for ordinary and extraordinary maintenance compared to the torque pitting system.
An automatic lubrication system (optional) guarantees a constant lubrication of the moving parts resulting in a reduced need for manpower and maintenance.
The machine is made in compliance with the highest sanitary standards, all parts in contact with the product are food grade.
The frame and the protections are made in stainless steel. The Peach Pitter is designed in compliance with European rules for machinery safety with the Directive 2006/42/CE and subsequent modifications.
The peaches are received into the feeding hopper where they are automatically separated and fed into the 8 cups of the flight on a conveyor system.
As the conveyor travels through the orientation sections, the peaches are positioned and aligned along the suture line.
At the pitting station, two knives enter the fruit from top and bottom and spin 360° in order to separate the pit from the pulp.
Simultaneously, two splitting knifes cut the fruit into halves.
