The Pegaso 1000 washing machine allows to wash 1500-2000 kg/hour of olives before they move on to the pressing stage. Washing is crucial to remove any impurities such as soil, dust, leaves and other residues that may be present on the olives after harvesting.
In the Pegaso 1000 installation, the hydropneumatic washing machine is located after the deleafer and before the device (screw elevator or conveyor) that transports the olives to the crusher. This system ensures that the olives are cleaned before being pressed, thus contributing to the quality of the final olive oil.
Basically the hydropneumatic washing machine is a standard and fundamental component of the Pegaso 1000 system, designed to guarantee the cleaning of the olives through a hydropneumatic system, preparing the fruit for the subsequent processing stages and contributing to the quality of the final product. The washing machine was created to allow quick and easy end-of-day cleaning.
