If you don't have an electric juicer, you can quickly and easily process a large apple harvest into juice using a juicer. If you have basic skills in working with tools such as a grinder and a welding machine, making an apple press with your own hands at home will not be difficult.
For the press you will need:
How to make an apple press with your own hands from scrap materials
We will give the sequence of assembling an apple press from materials that were, as they say, at hand. We’ll also tell you about the principle of operation. You can select or change the materials for making the press based on your capabilities.
Frame
We will assemble the frame using a grinder and welding machine from an old channel.
Such a channel is usually used for scrap metal. We will clean it with sandpaper from rust and weld the structure: perpendicular to each 70 cm long leg, we will weld a 60 cm long channel in the middle. We will connect the channel along the top with a 40 cm channel, and at the bottom we will weld 46 cm on both sides of the channel. A hole is cut out on the upper channel. The diameter depends on the diameter of the screw. Our screw, as mentioned above, is from an old workbench. The larger the diameter of the screw, the better (ours is 25 mm). Then we place a ball from the bearing under the screw to reduce friction. We get this basis:
Stand
We make a stand from wooden blocks - a square with a side of 35 cm and a height of 10 cm. The lattice is made of two layers of boards - one layer perpendicular to the other, thickness 10 mm - 30 cm by 30 cm.
Tray
For juice you need to make a tray - a sheet of metal made of stainless steel. For convenience, you can bend the spout on the sheet. Place a pan under this spout. In the photo - old aluminum pan, the first one that came to hand. Metal utensils It is not recommended to use it for apple juice; it is better to replace it with a plastic one.
Next, we make a shape for the scarf: a square 25 cm and a thickness of 6 cm. Insert a fabric scarf 50 by 50 cm into the frame, where we place the prepared apples (cake), fold the edges into an envelope and place it in the mold. Then the mold is removed and the second lattice is placed on top. A mold with grated apples, etc. is placed on it. The quantity depends on the height of the press. We substitute the pan. We start turning the screw clockwise and get apple juice.
We prepare the apples as follows: wash them, cut them, grind them on a grain grinder or pass them through a vegetable cutter. To facilitate labor, a factory-type manual feed cutter was mechanized. Converted into a mechanical one, the drive and motor were taken from an old washing machine.
To enhance the juice extraction, an additional pipe was used, which was inserted into the screw handle. Thus, the press squeezes the cake until dry. Instead of a screw, you can use an automatic jack for 2-5 tons.
An apple press allows you to use the pressing method to make juice from fruits or make apple wine with your own hands. The basis of apple drinks is precisely the portion of juice, so your main task is to squeeze the delicious liquid out of the apple fruits.
All presses designed for squeezing apples and other fruits to obtain juice can be divided into several types:
- Manual (mechanical). Most of the work is done through physical effort. At the same time, the spin devices mechanical type the easiest to assemble;
- Hydraulic. Hydraulic juicer operates on the basis of a hydraulic pump that creates pressure to extract juice from fruits and apples;
- Pneumatic. The operating principle is similar to hydraulic devices, but air is used instead of water. It is pumped using a compressor, carrying out the processes of squeezing the fruit;
- Electrohydraulic. Most effective types fruit pressing devices. The operation of such apple presses is based on hydraulics and electricity. You only need to load the raw materials with your own hands.
According to the scope of application, all apple squeezers are divided into two categories.
- Household. This can be a simple screw unit, where the process of squeezing fruit is carried out through physical effort. Also, a household juicer can have hydraulic and electric drive. The Bogatyr juicer is in great demand among those who make apple juice at home. The Bogatyr juicer costs about 5-8 thousand rubles. At the same time, you can make with your own hands a full-fledged analogue of household factory presses.
- Industrial. Regular screw design press is indispensable in the context of large-scale processing of apple juice. Here you will need a conveyor belt. The belt press feeds a large amount of fruit for further juice production. The conveyor belt has increased productivity, which is tens or even hundreds of times higher than the performance of self-assembled household presses.
Product preparation
To obtain high-quality apple juice, it plays an important role. competent preparation the fruits themselves. You need to do everything right so that your Bogatyr juicer or its homemade analogue performs processing efficiently and efficiently.
The essence of preparing apples for juice production is to follow a few simple recommendations.
- Prepare a container that will serve as a container for storing apples before sending them to the press. This is where you will place apples that are immediately ready for juice production.
- Provide the job site with plenty of clean water. The optimal solution is a hose with enough good pressure water. If processing is done at home, apples can be poured into the bathtub.
- Wash the apples thoroughly, removing all branches, leaves and stems.
- Depending on the equipment used and the characteristics of the juice recipe, you will need to peel and cut the apples.
- Obtaining pure high-quality juice implies the need to cut the apples into 2-4 parts, removing the core from them.
- In some cases, it is recommended to take a sharp spatula and crush the chopped prepared apples in a container. This will allow you to make small pieces of pulp from the apples. This will release even more juice. But the use of some presses does not require these activities. Apples can be simply chopped and peeled into the Bogatyr juicer.
Making a juicer press
Making a press with your own hands when you have photos, drawings and video instructions in front of you is not difficult. A simple but effective juicer allows you to produce large quantities of apple juice, using raw materials as efficiently as possible.
Yes, a factory-made juicer can outperform a homemade press in terms of performance. But not everyone wants to pay about 10-20 thousand for equipment. Buying a factory juicer is important when you plan to process a large number of apples. That is, the cost of purchasing the device will pay for itself over time.
For household use You can make an excellent homemade juicer. We offer you instructions for making a structure that allows you to make high-quality juice from apples.
Submitted homemade juicer consists of several main elements:
- Frame;
- Pallet;
- Barrel;
- Piston;
- Power point;
- Filter cloth.
We will tell you about each of the components of the juicer separately.
- The frame and base are made of metal profiles by welding. When making the top horizontal part of the frame, use durable profile, which can handle the estimated loads. Place a plywood sheet on the base. A pallet with a barrel will be placed on it. Provide protection from corrosion and rot by covering the metal with paint and the plywood with a varnish.
- You can use a ready-made plastic tray. Pallets from flower pots. Finding a component of the required size is not difficult. Make a hole in the side of the tray by inserting a tube there for the juice to flow out. But plastic pallets can break. Alternative solution The trays are made of stainless steel.
- The material for making the barrel can be perforated tape made of galvanized metal or non-glued laminated timber. If you use timber, leave a gap between the strips of no more than 5 mm. It is recommended to use beech, birch or oak wood. But pine and other resinous trees should not be used for these purposes because of their biological activity. Resin can impart an unpleasant aftertaste and bitterness to the juice.
- Piston. From wooden planks make a square. In this case, you need two layers of boards located perpendicular to each other. Once you have a square, cut a circle out of it using electric jigsaw. Gently round off the edges with sandpaper or a file. This way it won't get stuck in the barrel. When making a piston from boards, be sure to use oak, birch or beech. Biologically active resinous tree species are inappropriate here. A metal pancake can serve as a substitute for a piston circle made from boards.
- Power point. The optimal solution For self-made apple press will be hydraulic jack. Its capacity of 2 tons is enough to cope with the production of apple juice. Hydraulic jacks have a short piston stroke, so you will need to make additional boards that should be placed under the jack. For the screw, use a galvanized pin. A handle is welded to the stud, and a nut is welded to the frame. The screw will rotate in it.
- Filter cloth. To obtain juice rather than applesauce, you will need to separate the liquid from the pulp. Simple and effective solution there will be a fabric that carries out the process of filtering the juice. High-quality and durable fabric having a mesh structure. Prominent examples are polyester or lavsan.
Apple juice is a favorite product for many. It can be obtained from apples growing in your garden. Assembling a homemade press is not difficult. If you need a lot of apple juice, buy an efficient and reliable factory-made juicer.

3 reasons why SOK is better than its analogues.
 |
Press with a force of 2 tons.
A lever jack press that presses dry. Screw presses are difficult to use!You will have to make enormous efforts to get at least the first drops of juice to appear. Such presses must be securely fastened. SOK is designed without errors! Durable monolithic design with a professional lever jack there are no disadvantages. The force of the jack is such that it can easily lift a large SUV. And he can use it even a child. The press squeezes out the juice 100%. The pulp remains dry. |
| Stainless steel. Food GOSTs.
The juice does not react with the metal - the vitamins are preserved. IN conventional presses the metal is oxidized by fruit acids from juices, becomes rusty and spoils the taste homemade preparations. In our press SOK only food grade is used stainless steel, which does not react with products. Fruit and berry juices do not darken, do not oxidize and retain their properties and vitamins. A tray for collecting juice, a sieve for squeezing and protective cover polished with an electroplasma installation. Service press very easily. After use, rinse the press warm water and wipe dry. The service life of the press is 10 years. |

The real problem for the farmer is processing the crop.
Implementing this task with your own hands is the dream of any agricultural producer. Especially, fruits and berries are perishable products. Not all of harvested has a standard appearance, and therefore also needs processing.
Availability big harvests, forces you not to look for ready-made, well-known devices for processing products, but to quickly manufacture a spinning device to suit your volumes. Simply put - a fruit and vegetable press, with your own hands.
The corner stand was taken as a basis - Fig. 1. Several more pieces and simple metal products - Fig. 2, 3, 4 - had to be bolted together, having previously drilled holes in the places necessary for the connection. Welding can be used.
Main driving force Our press - progress, hydraulic auto. jack.
Line the inside of the pan with a thick cloth such as burlap or a sugar filter. It will play the role of a filter. Install the jack and push!
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION:
Place the ground apples (berries) into a container with holes. On top, fabric, a cover, a block of wood - to support the jack. Under the pan there is a tray with a hole to drain the squeezed juice. Under the hole is a container for the finished juice.
Product yield is approximately 5-8 liters of juice from 10 kg. raw materials. If necessary, the same can be done with vegetables. Good luck with your harvest!
To process the harvest collected in the garden or vineyard, you need to buy a convenient press and crusher. Freshly squeezed juices - the basis for homemade wine - or delicious vegetable oil– all this turns out cheaper than in the store, and much tastier.
Exist different models presses, for various purposes and type, so we will determine it according to several parameters:
- Hand press
- Hydraulic Press
- Pneumatic press
- Electric press
Small hand-held ones are perfect for summer residents. screw presses, which you can bring with you; transfer to any place on the site or at home.
A hydraulic press consists of two communicating vessels, one of which is filled with water. The pressure of this container exerts a force that promotes juice release. Hydraulics are suitable for processing significant volumes of raw materials; You can make juices, cheeses, and even oil from olives or other soft plant products.
New juice presses have a simple but reliable design. They are made of durable food-grade materials - stainless steel, aluminum, impact-resistant plastic, oak and beech wood. Working with a hydraulic press for berries and fruits does not require physical effort. Even a fragile girl can handle it.
The electric press is ideal for recycling large quantity harvest and preparation of wine, oil or juice for sale. Owners of private wineries usually use electro-hydraulic models, which work very quickly and with the highest quality, but are more expensive than any other.
Volume and materials.
An important parameter is the volume of the basket for storing raw materials. For homemade preparations and 10–20 bottles of wine, a basket of 5–10 liters is enough. The garden bears fruit well, and drinks are sold or given to neighbors - select models from 20 to 50 liters. You most likely won't need more.
Metal and wood are ideal materials. Such presses are durable, easy to clean and can withstand huge amounts of loading of raw materials every season for several decades in a row. Pay attention to the connection of parts and the places where forces are applied - they must be strong and reliable.
