All the machines have been conceived with energy savings in mind, while the training of personnel in the use of the devices and an efficient and always available assistance and spare parts service is also guaranteed.

Extensive experience, innovative technologies, materials, components, high-quality finishes, and a widespread and efficient servicing network are the strengths brought to the task by Della Toffola Group companies: the perfect choice for the complete configuration of your winery.

The OMNIA filters are the most advanced of Della Toffola’s range of crossflow filters. They are suitable for filtering products of all kinds, however dirty, obtaining the best clarity and retrieving as much product as possible. OMNIA crossflow filters can be used to filter: clarified and unclarified wines, lees at the end of the fermentation process, lees remaining after a wine’s clarification, and products in the foodstuffs, chemical, pharmaceutical and industrial sectors.

Like Della Toffola’s other crossflow filters, the OMNIA filters exploit an innovative filtering system with ceramic membranes that has numerous advantages. The combination of an excellent structural quality and plentiful integrated technology with the characteristics of the ceramic membranes enables an efficient filtering process with excellent results (even to 0.00 NTU) a tangible saving of time and resources.

The membranes are available with different porosity levels for various uses and guarantee an incomparable wear-resistance and durability by comparison with the traditional organic membranes. They can also withstand high temperatures, sterilizing, and even cleaning with aggressive chemicals.

The working processes (filtering cycles, and frequency of the backflow and washing cycles) are fully automated and there is no need for the operator to be on hand. Instead, operators can manage the machine intuitively and promptly by setting just two parameters by means of the touchscreen interface. In addition, the user has the opportunity to set up and control the system online with any Android device connected to the Internet (by means of the optional remote control module).

The filters are available in various sizes (with filtering surface areas (from 20 to 118 m² of filtering surface area) and they can be customized to suit the needs of a particular client.

Della toffola’s ecoflot units have been designed to perform a flotation process in a single tank.

Flotation is a very widespread practice used for juices and wine clarification, ready for subsequent fermentation or concentration stages. The must is treated with an adjuvant (bentonite, gelatin, silica sol) to break down its colloidal reticular structure, then saturated with nitrogen or air so as to entrain all the lees it contains up to the surface.

The ecoflot flotator is a machine suitable for clarifying grape must while it is pumping over, using only one tank, thus ensuring an effective and economically advantageous flotation process. This type of flotator for wine clarification is highly versatile because once the liquid has been saturated while the must is pumping over, a sample is collected to analyze the quality of the product: if this is still not adequate, pumping over and saturation can continue for as long as necessary.

Models operating at 6 bar – s1 (170 hl/h) s2 (330 hl/h) s3 (510 hl/h).

Moviro reverse osmosis systems for wine

Della Toffola’s industrial plate filters presses are designed for filtering lees and, with the addition of a centrifugal pump, also wines, must, and byproducts of the winemaking process.

They are based on a tried and tested technology that Della Toffola has been applying for decades, and have always been a simple and effective solution for all the processes that involve separating the liquid phase from the solids in suspension. These industrial filters presses enable the retrieval of the liquid part still contained in the lees, while also obtaining solid cakes rich in materials suitable for use in the industries that process the byproducts of winemaking. Made with the best materials and components, they are extremely reliable and durable.

All the parts in contact with the product are made of AISI 304 stainless steel. The units are all complete with a feed pump and a hydraulic system for manually or automatically closing the filter. The industrial filter press pack consists of plastic plates with a central manifold for distributing the product to filter and manifolds at the corners for collecting the filtrate.

Each filter plate is complete with a sheet of polypropylene fabric. Models with filter plates from 400×400 to 1200×1200 mm.

Della Toffola’s NDC crusher destemmers guarantee a perfect, delicate separation of the grapes from the stems, retaining the quality of the crushed grapes in every situation. Conceived and designed to be extremely user-friendly, the standard fittings include solutions that make cleaning procedures quick and effective.

The NDC crusher destemmers are available in several versions: from the NDC 8 (80 q/h) to the NDC 105 (1000-1200 q/h).

Various models are also fitted with an electronic speed control to adapt constantly to different needs and types of product.

Della Toffola’s presses with closed tanks combine exclusive technical solutions that make them extremely high-performing, as well as guaranteeing qualitatively excellent results.

The presses with closed tanks are suitable for producing all kinds of wine and particularly indicated for red and rosé wines because the maceration process with the grape skins can take place directly inside the press. The tubular membrane attached to the central drum considerably increases the area of the surface for straining the must through the circumferential perforated grids arranged in a ring all around the drum.

Using a Della Toffola press means reducing the number of working cycles and consequently the total pressing time by up to 50%. Very low working pressures can be applied and minimal displacements of the grape mass, achieving a gentle pressing action that protects the grapes from damage. The result is higher yields from smaller-sized systems and, above all, products of very high quality.

The presses are practical and easy to use, with a programmable automatic control system based on a digital control panel and a programmable onboard computer. The integrated washing system is based on an exclusive solution with moving balls that ensures excellent cleanliness and hygiene.

On request, these presses can be operated as part of a centralized computer-controlled system comprising several machines.

Della Toffola presses with closed tanks are available in various versions and capacities, from 12 up to 700 hl.

Della Toffola’s sheet filters are the outcome of over thirty years of experience with this type of technology and are intended for filtering numerous types of product: wine, beer, syrups, fruit juices, vinegar, spirits, water, oil and chemical, pharmaceutical and industrial products.

With the aid of specific accessories, the filters can be adapted to work in a great variety of sectors, always with excellent results. They are reliable and durable and made entirely of AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel, including the frame, valves, tray and accessories.

They are user-friendly and particularly quick and easy to start up. There are sightglasses on the inlet and outlet for the product being filtered to enable an optimal management of the process.

Filtering can be done simply with sheets mounted on the plates, or with plates, sheets and frames containing kieselgur; the simple addition of a plate enables the simultaneous use of both methods. These filters are available in models with filtering plates from 400 x 400 to 1200 x 1200 mm in size.

For the most modern production processes, Della Toffola Group manufactures complete refrigeration systems with a very broad range of options, even computer-aided, for the management and control of the temperature of musts and wines.

These systems are particularly suitable for lowering the temperature of crushed must, monitoring and maintaining the temperature during fermentation, checking and maintaining the ideal temperature of wines in storage, as well as lowering the temperature of wines as part of the tartaric stabilizing process. These systems are designed and manufactured to the customer’s specifications.
