Bucher XPert Pneumatic Grape Press

The Bucher XPert range (100–450 hL) is built for large-scale wineries requiring high-capacity pressing with reliable, long-term performance. The XPert combines industrial-strength construction with user-friendly operation. It features Bucher’s patented self-cleaning drainage channels, designed to maximise juice flow, reduce cycle times, and minimise downtime during intensive harvest periods. The intuitive control system includes a large display with two operating modes and storage for up to ten programmable cycles, allowing easy adaptation to different grape varieties and pressing styles. Optional features such as axial inlet, automatic press modes, auto-wash, and inert gas integration further enhance efficiency making the XPert a powerful, scalable solution for high-throughput, quality-focused wineries.

Main Features

Winecraft® Remote Monitoring App

Real‑time visibility of program status, pressure curves, flow rates, and remaining time. Monitor and adjust your press from anywhere during harvest.

Automatic Sequential Programming

Large HMI with two operating modes and storage for up to ten custom cycles automate both pressing and emptying sequences for repeatable, vintage‑to‑vintage consistency.

ExtraFlow Juice Distribution System

Guarantees even, continuous juice evacuation across the entire drainage surface, preventing “dead zones” and ensuring every drop is collected efficiently, maximising yield and preserving juice quality.

Helicoidal Spiral Pomace‑Draining System

Spirals under the membrane guide spent solids to one or two large sliding doors for fast, complete emptying and tailored “crumbing” by variety.

Automatic Door with Inflatable Seals

Leak‑proof, rapid filling and discharge minimise juice loss while ensuring hygienic operation under high pressure.

Integrated High‑Pressure Cleaning Lance

Built‑in wash gun and inclined nozzle clean channels and tank interior in minutes reducing water use and labour between cycles.

Patented Self‑Cleaning Drainage Channels (optional)

Non‑corrosive, electro‑polished slots that stay clear during pressing—maximising juice flow, shortening cycle times, and reducing downtime for cleaning.

Axial Inlet (optional)

Gentle side‑entry loading reduces oxidation and berry damage. This is ideal for delicate varieties or whole‑cluster pressing.
