Main parameters of the apple production line

Key process of the apple processing line

Now Shanghai Gofun machinery company will introduce the information of apple pulp puree or apple paste concentrate processing line to show it works.

1. Discharge platform

When fresh apples arrive, they are often unloaded by large trucks. So design unloading platform to unload fresh apples from truck with water gun and transport fresh apples to production line with water. In addition, the unloading area has another function of pre-washing fresh apples before processing.

2. Elevator

This machine is used to delivery fresh apple from outside the building to inside.

3. Washing

Fresh apples should be carefully washed before removing the skin and seeds. Additional cleaning stages can be added if cleaning requirements are high. It is also possible to add ultrasonic cleaning and ozone cleaning to enhance the cleaning effect.

4. Sorting

After washing, the surface of apple is clean, we can check the situation of all the fruit by human eye, and sort out the bad apples by human.

5. Crushing

The GFM-FC series crushers have the most advanced working principle, higher manufacturing precision and highest crushing capacity. Mainly used for crushing various fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes, apples, pears, strawberries, celery, etc. It can finely grind the raw material and improve the working effect of the following process. This machine consists of feed hopper, side cover, frame, main shaft, bearing seat, motor, motor structure, discharge hopper, etc.

6. Preheating

A pre-heater is used to heat the crushed material and the temperature is generally adjustable from 45°C to 85°C. This processing step helps improve the juice yield in the next step and can also preserve the color and taste of the final product.

7. Belt type juice extractor

Gofun researched advanced foreign technology to create the belt press. This is an efficient press, which is very important as it can increase the juice capacity while processing fruit and vegetable juices. Used for squeezing apples, pears and other fruits and vegetables. More than 70% fruit juice. Energy saving and automatic control.

9. Sterilizing

Apple puree and applesauce are made in a tube sterilizer. Sterilization temperature and exposure time are adjustable. This machine maintains an ultra-high temperature of approximately 115°C for 30 seconds and then immediately cools to room temperature. This maximizes the taste and nutritional content of your apple puree or applesauce concentrate. The entire system is under programmable control. The operating system adopts a man-machine interface image that helps intuitively understand the working status of each component of the equipment.

10. Aseptic Filling

Aseptic filling machines are used in conjunction with test-type sterilizers. This is a closed loop. Prior to production, loops are fully sterilized to provide a sterile environment. The filling chamber is also vapor protected, ensuring that the filling medium is also sterile. Security - Provides various security methods. Adopts mirror welding technology to achieve clean and smooth welding. Independent control panel. The sterilizer is provided with his CIP and Auto SIP. It can be easily adjusted to accommodate various capacities and sizes of sterile bags.

11. Storage or go blending

The finished product can be stored or used as the raw material to make the apple sauce or ketchup.
