BUCHER VASLIN
Bucher Vaslin's new TRV 25 is a
vibrating table that comes with
two stainless steel drain grids as
well as a flat panel. The table is
linked with trapezoidal bars and
can be set at 4 mm, 6 mm or
8 mm spacing. A vibrating "inter-
mediate grid" with perforations
of 2x20 mm prevents debris from
falling into the juice channel,
which can be set to empty to the
left or right of the machine.
Throughput is 20 to 25 tons per
hour, depending on grape variety
and condition. Price: $29,000.

P&L SPECIALTIES
P&L Specialties' new "Cluster
Thruster" evenly meters whole
clusters at 2 to 30 tons per hour.
The machine can process a half-
ton bin dump at once, and its os-
cillating motion moves grapes
evenly and gently onto a vibrating
conveyor that can be set to feed a
manual sorting line, destemmer
or press. The hopper and con-
veyor are designed to be easy to
clean and easy to incorporate into
an existing crush pad system.
Price: Check with supplier.
