Passion fruit, with its tangy, aromatic juice and nutrient-rich profile, is a favorite in the global beverage industry. Extracting high-quality passion fruit juice, however, requires specialized equipment to handle the fruit’s tough rind, pulpy interior, and numerous seeds. At Lyure, we manufacture advanced screw presses tailored for passion fruit juice production. Our machines deliver efficient, hygienic, and high-yield juice extraction, making them the ideal choice for producers aiming to create premium passion fruit juice.
Why Use a Screw Press for Passion Fruit Juice?
Passion fruit presents unique challenges for juice extraction due to its complex structure. The screw press is exceptionally well-suited for this task, offering gentle yet powerful processing that maximizes juice yield while maintaining flavor and quality. Key benefits of using a screw press include:
High Extraction Efficiency: Lyure’s screw presses achieve juice yields of up to 70-80%, extracting the maximum amount of juice from the pulp while separating seeds and rind.
Preservation of Flavor: The low-speed pressing process minimizes heat generation and oxidation, preserving the vibrant, tropical flavor and bright color of passion fruit juice.
Seed Separation: Our presses are designed with fine mesh screens to effectively separate seeds from the juice, producing a smooth, seed-free product.
Hygienic Design: Constructed from food-grade stainless steel, our screw presses are easy to clean and comply with international food safety standards.
How Lyure’s Screw Press Works
Lyure’s screw presses are engineered for precision and durability, making passion fruit juice production seamless. The process involves the following steps:
Preparation and Feeding: Whole or halved passion fruits are fed into the machine’s hopper. Optional pre-crushing ensures optimal juice release.
Juice Extraction: The screw mechanism gently presses the fruit against a perforated screen, extracting the juice while separating the seeds and rind. Adjustable pressure settings allow operators to fine-tune the process for maximum yield and clarity.
Collection: The extracted juice flows into a stainless steel collection tank, ready for filtration, bottling, or further processing. The dry pomace and seeds are discharged separately for easy disposal or repurposing.
Our screw presses are equipped with user-friendly controls, enabling operators to adjust settings based on fruit size, ripeness, or desired juice consistency.
