Fruit destoning duty | Fruit Processing Equipment

Define flesh recovery and stone integrity before selecting the offered separation assembly.

Size & destone

Separate stones from the wanted flesh stream

Input
Stone-bearing fruit with variety, maturity, stone adhesion and preparation stated.
Output
A flesh/pulp stream plus a separately collected stone/reject stream.

Working principle

The assembly separates flesh and stones by a method matched to the fruit. The proposal must show the working parts and demonstrate how intact stones and fragments are controlled. A generic fruit-crushing description is insufficient.

Fruit condition

Stone adhesion and flesh firmness can change performance. Include the range of representative fruit in the trial.

Quality boundary

Assess stone fragments, peel carryover and acceptable flesh condition alongside recovered mass.

Reject management

Define collection and inspection of rejects so losses and separation quality are measurable.

Material and operating limits

No specific fruit variety, stone-removal efficiency or model capacity is verified by this category page.

Inlet, outlet and installation interfaces

Confirm inlet presentation, preparation requirements, product transfer passages and reject discharge access.

Cleaning and maintenance

Inspect contact parts and wear zones that affect separation; permit safe access for trapped material and broken components.

Compare this duty

Compare destoning offers on the same fruit and fragment/recovery acceptance criteria, not against a crusher’s nominal rate.
