However, the productivity of Russian cylindrical machines is high, they are capable of operating in a continuous mode. Ideal for large workpieces for the winter. For rare use, such models are too cumbersome.

The principle of operation of cylindrical juicers is as follows: fruits or vegetables are ground with a special grater, after which the mixture enters a sieve where the juice is squeezed out. Some models have an automatic release of the pulp into a special container, others need to be cleaned manually.

Imported cylindrical juicers have a tapered sieve, which is quickly clogged and must be cleaned. The cone-shaped separator has a useful yield of up to 70%, cylindrical - up to 95%.

There are models of juicers equipped with a special turbo-separator. In them you can prepare juice from grapes, put not cut fruits. Such juicers are equipped with a cooling device, which allows the device to work without interruption.

Basically, juicers make juice from hard fruits and vegetables, but there are some models in which you can make juice from soft fruits and herbs. The only drawback is the expensive cost.
