Cantina del Nebbiolo

The cellar in object has a great number of collaborators who continuously are bringing great numbers of grapes of every kind.
Profiting by a project of restructuring, the cellar decided to install a grapes reception system able to receive small quantities of grapes that are coming continuously, naturally exploiting all the available spaces. The equipment we supplied consisted in the installation of two separate reception areas designed to collect all the different qualities of grape, so that it was possible to rule the collaborators’ incoming.
We equipped the four collecting basins, each with a length of 7,5 mt and a capacity of nearly15 tons, of double screw without intermediary supports that, through an inverter connected to the motorization, would have allowed the grapes’ movement without any damage.
A practice oleodynamic hatch would have allowed the inside accumulation without loss of liquid.
The passage from the collecting basin to the destemmer occurred through a screw transporter that allowed to unload the whole basin and utilize only one destemmer. This destemmer would have been, in practice, at the service of two collecting basins.
To prevent the operator from moving from one area to another we realized a centralized control system for the supervision of the entire reception area and equipments placed in cavities.We completed the installation with an useful grape-stalks conveying system with anti-obstruction alarm from the exit of the destemmer to the aspirator’s pipeline destined to the evacuation of the discards.
