Tornado is the biggest stalk and branch remover in the range and is produced by Clemente Snc.  

The working capacity of this machine is up to 20 tons per hour.

On the top of the machine there is an electric vibratory motor used for distributing the olives uniformly along the tray thus allowing the blower to separate the leaves from the olives and to eject them in a leaf bin.  The olives are then separated from the branches by rotating rollers and are separated from the dirt by spirals.

At the end of the process all the waste material is collected and ejected from the machine.


TORNADO 1
Tornado 1, a leaf and branch remover, with a processing capacity of up to 8 tons per hour.

The machine's upper section incorporates a vibrating screen, facilitating the even distribution of olives. With the assistance of a fan, it efficiently separates and ejects any foliage, directing it to a designated collector.

Additionally, the Tornado 1 machine serves the purpose of the final separation of olives from leaf & branch material through a spiral plane.



TORNADO 2
Tornado 2 for larger production processing rate of up to 20 tons per hour.

In its upper section, the machine is equipped with a vibrating screen that efficiently loads olives, ensuring an even distribution. The incorporated fans effectively separate and expel any foliage, directing it into a dedicated leaf collector.

The subsequent cleaning phase involves a rotating disk that detaches branches from the olives. In the third phase, the remaining product undergoes a separation process where soil is efficiently removed via the self-cleaning roller conveyor.

Beyond its primary function as a leaf and branch remover, the Tornado 2 machine is the perfect solution for the final separation of olives from the leaf and branch material through a spiral plane.

Frequently Asked Questions 

The Tornado Series ensures superior cleaning by combining vibratory classification, airflow separation, and precision screening. At the top of each machine, a vibro-classifier evenly distributes olives before a variable-speed fan removes leaves and stems, sending them into a collector.

Subsequent separation phases eliminate heavier debris such as stones, twigs, and soil. By removing foreign matter early, the Tornado system prevents equipment wear and reduces oxidation or bitterness in the oil. The result is a cleaner fruit feed, consistent milling performance, and higher-quality olive oil with improved flavour stability and yield.

Weight 900 kg 1800 kg
Material AISI 304 Stainless Steel AISI 304 Stainless Steel
Application Scale Small to medium-size mills requiring compact operation and efficiency. Medium to large industrial mills needing high-capacity throughput and advanced automation.

​The Tornado 1 suits smaller mills seeking a compact, efficient machine, while the Tornado 2 delivers industrial-level throughput and multi-stage cleaning for large production facilities. Both share Clemente’s hygienic AISI 304 stainless-steel construction and low-maintenance design.
Maintenance has been simplified through modular stainless-steel construction and easy-access panels. The internal components can be removed for cleaning in minutes, and the fan housing, drum, and auger channels are designed to prevent residue buildup.

The self-cleaning roller table (Tornado 2) and smooth interior surfaces reduce manual washing time between shifts. Regular rinsing with pressurised water is generally sufficient for hygiene compliance. With minimal lubrication points and robust components, both models deliver low downtime and long service life, even under intensive seasonal use.

Bark Photosynthesis in Olive Trees

While leaves are the primary sites of photosynthesis in plants, bark photosynthesis, also known as corticular photosynthesis, plays a significant role in the carbon economy of woody plants, including olive trees (Olea europaea). This process involves the fixation of carbon dioxide (CO₂) by the green tissues in the bark, contributing to the tree's overall photosynthetic capacity, especially under stress conditions.
