Provisur Technologies at Fruit Logistica: Groundbreaking systems for high-quality fruit compotes and mashed products

Provisur, the leading industrial food processing equipment manufacturer headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, will present a range of unique machines at Fruit Logistica, the global fresh fruit trade show taking place from 5-7 February 2025, in Berlin, Germany. The Provisur booth will highlight the company’s modular production systems for fruit compote, mash and juice, showcasing cutting-edge refiners such as the, the STS®, Barracuda® and the Hoegger®.

STS 800 / STS 2000 / STS 3000 – high throughput, easy maintenance

STS technologies are ideal for the creation of a wide range of jams, compotes and different types of fruit and vegetable sauces and purees. The STS 2000 is a new refiner that enables higher throughput and quality control for many end products.

After the operator introduces the product into the refiner, a flexible pressing belt pulls the product through and presses it against a perforated drum. The soft parts then move through the holes of the drum as any hard components such as stones or skin are removed from the outside of the drum by a scraping knife and discarded into a waste chute. The robust design and simple configuration of the equipment make maintenance and cleaning smooth and easy, ensuring hygienic operations.

AM2C Barracuda – artisanal excellence for all kinds of fruit products

The flexibility and modularity of Provisur systems ensures that all types of production can be catered for - from artisanal to industrial. For batches, Provisur has the Barracuda and STS systems which offer lower capacities at a lower machine price. 

The Barracuda incorporates advanced refiner technology with a low RPM and a single screw feed system which gently handles raw material. It features a two-pallet vane pump and delivers high yield. The machine has a 100 kg - 30 t capacity per hour, refining from 360 microns to 10 mm.

It processes fresh and cooked products from 0 to 90 °C, including products with many fibers. Pumping solutions are also offered. Provisur’s renowned customer service includes tests and demonstrations in the Provisur Innovation Center in Plailly, France, or at the customer’s facility.

Hoegger® PS 2000 and PS 4000: controlled pressure for delicate products

Hoegger refiners deliver maximum yield and lower operating costs to create compote, mash out of soft and cooked products. Already highly regarded worldwide in potato processing, Hoegger machines are also ideal for separating fruit's hard and soft particles.

They can remove pits, stones, skins, stems, black spots, and fibers, to generate superior fruit products.

What makes Hoegger technology so unique is the delta pressure system of sensors. This enables very low pressure which is maintained at a constant level. In combination with complete control of the knife head rotation speed, this results in outstanding product quality. The automatic, recipe-controlled regulation of the machine leads to excellent consistency. Furthermore, the machine is operator-friendly, easy to clean and boasts very low operating costs to guarantee a fast return on investment.
