This listing is for a used TMCI Padovan Taylo rotary precoat vacuum drum filter, a specialist beverage processing machine designed for the vacuum filtration of wine lees, grape juice, and carbohydrates. Sometimes referred to simply as a rotary vacuum filter or drum filter, this type of machine is a well-established piece of equipment in winery and juice production environments, where it is used to recover liquid from difficult-to-filter solids and slurries that would otherwise be lost.
TMCI Padovan is a recognised Italian manufacturer with a long history of producing filtration and processing equipment for the wine, beer, and beverage industries. Their rotary vacuum filter range, of which the Taylo is part, is specifically engineered for lees filtration and the recovery of residual product from clarification processes.
Filtration on this machine is performed using a kieselguhr or perlite precoat panel formed directly on the drum surface. The operational cycle described by the seller covers the full filtration sequence: initial pre-panel formation on the drum, followed by filtration and drainage of the product being processed. The panel is then cut and drained to remove spent filter cake, after which the filtrate is extracted. The cycle concludes with filtration of any residual liquid and a washing stage to clean the filter at the end of the run, ensuring the equipment is ready for the next cycle.
The machine dates from 2008 and is described by the seller as being in excellent condition. It is located in Poland and is offered at a price of $10,000.
