Bomba de vinho: Bombas enológicas 4.0
Casos de estudo: Vinícola Val D'Oca
O cliente
A vinícola Val d'Oca, localizada em Valdobbiadene, Itália, foi fundada em 1952 e produz Prosecco Superiore DOCG e Prosecco DOC Treviso, gerando cerca de 18.000 garrafas por ano. Desde a safra de 2018, eles começaram a usar a tecnologia de bombas de lóbulos da Vogelsang.
“As principais características desta bomba são velocidade, facilidade de ajuste e leveza” - Andrea Zannoni, enólogo.
A experiência
At the Valdobbiadene establishment there are three Vogelsang wine pumps: one in middle pressing, for the transfer of the musts, and two that transfer the musts in the first fermentation tanks and then for the decanting.
Thanks to the touch screen control panel connected to the application on a smartphone that allows accurate remote control, the operator can decide the transfer speed at any time: they can move as much or as little volume as required.
For example, in Val D’Oca the constant pressure function is used at 0.5 bar in common transfers and - 0.2 in constant vacuum transfers. Thanks to the constant vacuum function, the tanks can be completely emptied.
The pump is very light and can be carried anywhere. The lobe system ensures silent operation; there are no vibrations and thus wine stress is reduced.
Finally, the smartphone application allows the pump to be managed even remotely, considerably facilitating the work: two operators are no longer needed for the transfer or filling operations, one person can now easily do these tasks.
