HOPPERS

Receiving hoppers

The range of PERA receiving hoppers is suitable for any type of installation and allows a regular supply of grapes to be fed to the destemming and sorting equipment.

Testimonial

We have a PERA vibrating hopper to receive the grapes. We chose this equipment to ensure a regular supply to our H600 destemmer, and it does a good job of separating the various plant components. Manufactured to a very high standard of quality, this hopper is extremely reliable and durable. We feed through flows of about 25 t/h, which is largely sufficient to absorb the estate's harvest.

Vibrating hoppers

The vibrating hoppers are designed to supply any destemming and harvest sorting system. The harvest is protected by the vibrating emptying system. PERA hoppers include: • Vibrating hopper assembled on silent blocks • AISI 304 stainless-steel structure • On/off switch • Emergency stop push button • Water-tight door actuated by pneumatic cylinders • Options: juice drip trays, intermediate opening Vibrating hopper

Archimedes screw hoppers: horizontal / angled

Archimedes screw hoppers allow direct feed from the destemmer at a constant, optimal rate. The large diameter screw protects the grapes. Archimedes screw hoppers can be horizontal or angled, according to the needs of your installation. Equipped with: • Hopper in AISI 304 stainless steel, thickness 3 mm • Ø 400 mm stainless steel Archimedes screw , thickness 5 mm • Wash water drain plug Ø 50 mm • MIG (inert gas) welded • Electric motor • Option: weighing Screw hopper

Tipping screw hoppers

These hoppers can supply a destemmer system. They are fitted with a screw which is fed gradually with the harvested grapes, as the hopper swings. Available as made-to-measure only.

Dejuicing rake hoppers

These hoppers allow a significant amount of quality juice (less oxidation) to be drained from the harvest with their very wide drainage surface. They are used to optimise the press filling process for mechanical harvesting. Available as made-to-measure only.
