New HARVER DM300x2 pitting equipment

The HARVER DM300x2 is a machine for spot pitting of cherry and sweet cherry fruits of various sizes. The productivity of this machine depends on the size of the fruit and is on average 250-300 kg/hour.

The machine is almost entirely made of food grade stainless steel. AISI304, as well as polyacetal and duralumin. Its structure complies with all applicable safety and sanitary standards and is suitable for use in food processing plants and workshops. The machine is disassembled into replaceable units for further washing and maintenance.

Features:
CE certificate;
the machine works with both small cherries and large cherry and sweet cherry fruits due to interchangeable drums;
fruit diameter - from 18 to 28 mm;
high productivity: 18 fruits are removed in one stroke of the knives, 72 strokes per minute;
1260 pitted fruits per minute;
new fruit is fed into the holes by gravity under the control of the operator;
it is possible to work with cherries after freezing. The temperature of the cherries should be: - 6°C to -8°C;
a pneumatic aspiration system is installed to remove crushed cherry parts that do not come out of the holes on their own. A pneumatic solenoid valve opens every time the drum stops and cleans a number of holes before moving it to the loading position (an air compressor is required for this);
water supply system to the stone receiver, which allows adding water for better passage of the seeds through the screw (when they are viscous due to sugar content, or when working with frozen cherries);
easy cleaning and maintenance;
significant savings in time and operating costs;
the relevant parts can be easily removed and cleaned;
minimum payback period due to high performance and low cost compared to other similar machines.
The HARVER DM300x2 is an industrial-type machine for use in confectionery and bakery shops, as well as small fruit freezing or dried fruit production facilities.

How it works:
The cherries are loaded by the operator or conveyor into the receiving bin and roll into the openings of the drums, which rotate 12 steps per complete revolution. The cherries that fall into the appropriate holes are delivered to the processing area, where sharp specially shaped plungers penetrate the centre of the fruit and remove the pit, directing it into a hole with a rubber cuff. The seeds fall into a stone collector with a screw, which removes them from the working area. The plungers return to their original position, the drum is rotated to the next steps and the pitted cherries fall out on the other side of the machine, falling into a storage container set by the operator.
