<pre>After years of development, we announce that the construction
of our pitting machine prototype has been just finished.
The machine is built up of two different parts: a
pitting one and a separator one, vertically disposed.
The first one looks after the production of olive
paste without pit; the second one looks after the
effective separation of the two components, by letting
the paste in the following workings and expelling the
pits.
We'll be very happy to invite anyone was interested in
our new equipment to be present at the working of the machine itself
making us written request via e-mail message.
By the way, because of the difference of season, it will be proper to
bring about one quintal of olives for the test.
People interested in our prototypes can also ask us to send them
directly via e-mail message the only 2 photos available at this
moment showing our new entire mini-frantoio prototype(which includes
also our new pitting machine prototype) capable of working 300 Kg.
olives per hour.
Our new mini-frantoio is designed to produce the famous "pitless oil"
without breaking the pits.
Oil with broken pits has a bitter taste and shorter shelf life period.
"Pitless oil" instead, has better taste and can maintain its
properties for long shelf life period (also up to 3 years).
