The commercial value of cherries depends on keeping the fruit flesh intact and the colour bright. The longer the wait, the greater the bruising, oxidation and product loss. Our lines process the raw fruit in one continuous flow, from intake to packing, to keep these losses to a minimum.
Machine groups and capacity ranges
1. Cherry Pitting Machines
Removes the pit while leaving the fruit flesh undamaged. Pits are carried automatically to a separate collection line, and the pitted fruit moves on as raw material for freezing, drying or pastille production.
Capacity: Artisan 100–300 kg/h · Medium scale 500–1,500 kg/h · Large scale 2,000–5,000 kg/h
Product-contact surfaces: AISI 316L
2. Stem and Debris Removal Lines
Separates stems, leaves and foreign matter to keep the raw material clean. It is a preliminary step that reduces machine wear and product loss in the processes that follow.
Capacity: Artisan 200–500 kg/h · Medium scale 1,000–2,000 kg/h · Large scale 3,000–6,000 kg/h
Product-contact surfaces: AISI 304
3. Freezing Lines (IQF and Tunnel)
Rapid freezing of the sorted cherries preserves colour, flavour and nutritional value for a long time. It lets you sell seasonal harvest all year round.
Capacity: Artisan 100–300 kg/h · Medium scale 500–1,000 kg/h · Large scale 2,000–5,000 kg/h
Product-contact surfaces: AISI 304
4. Drying Systems (Tray and Belt Type)
Dried cherries are produced under controlled temperature and humidity. Adjustable temperature and airflow allow the system to handle different product thicknesses and moisture targets. Efficient heating and air circulation keep energy consumption low.
Capacity (fresh cherry intake): Artisan 20–80 kg/h · Medium scale 200–800 kg/h · Large scale 1,000–2,000 kg/h
Product-contact surfaces: AISI 304 (AISI 316 in areas prone to condensation)
5. Pastille Production Line
Covers cherry purée preparation, spreading, drying and cutting. Product consistency and thickness are adjustable, and capacity is planned around your target output.
Capacity (purée feed basis): Artisan 50–150 kg/h · Medium scale 300–800 kg/h · Large scale 1,000–2,000 kg/h
Product-contact surfaces: AISI 316L

Frequently asked questions
Can it be added to my existing line?
Yes. We review your plant's capacity, layout and connection points and design a compatible solution.
Is it suitable for an artisan business?
Yes. You can start with a single machine at artisan scale and expand the line as production grows.
Should I buy a single machine or a complete line?
It depends on the stage where your current production is bottlenecked. We can work out the best option together in a free preliminary assessment.
Next step: Send us your production target, your existing plant and your main product. We will prepare a line proposal and a preliminary quotation tailored to you.
