PELLENC - Weighing for grape presses

PELLENC PERA OENOPROCESS, a subsidiary of the Pellenc Group since 2014, is a recognized and historic player in the wine industry. The company designs, manufactures and markets innovative equipment for wineries and cellars, covering the entire winemaking process, from pressing to must treatment.

Thanks to its technical expertise and capacity for innovation, PELLENC PERA OENOPROCESS supports both small winemakers and large production units in France and abroad.


The need

As part of the development of its new generation of grape presses, PELLENC wishes to integrate a weighing system that will allow:

  • Real-time control of the press filling rate to avoid overloading.
  • Monitor the rate of pomace dehydration during pressing.
  • Control automatic emptying according to residual weight.

This system must provide 50 kg accuracy and communicate with a PLC via a transmitter connected to an HMI interface.

Our solution

To meet the customers’ needs, SCAIME proposed a weighing system integrated into the press automation system, including:

  • 1 R10X load cell, fitted with a SiloSafe-RX kit to absorb lateral forces.
  • 1 eNod4-T transmitter for management, signal filtering and transmission of weight information to the press automation system.

Weighing information is processed via an HMI and used to automate filling, pressing and emptying of the press.

 

  • 1 R10X 5t load cell with SILOSAFE-RX mounting kit
  • 1 eNod4-T weighing controller
  • 1 HMI PELLENC
