CONTROL UNIT

Presentation

The principle of the press lies in a programmable controller connected to an operator panel for program recording, pressing operations and safety controls.

Program recording and execution

The operator records parameters in the program which depend on the varieties of the grapes. Several cycles can be stored. This function makes possible the display of cycles corresponding to many pressing modes generally used (fresh grapes, fermented skins).
However the operator can change any data at will, thus giving an infinite number of programs.

Safety controls

Automatism has been designed to check each working stage and to prevent from operating error. Moreover any failure is immediately displayed on the screen, informing the operator.
