High-Quality Tomato Processing Plant Aseptic Bag In Drum Package Field Installation

Product description of tomato processing plant

Tomato processing lines can produce from fresh tomatoes to different types of finished products. Popular products such as tomato paste, tomato sauce & ketchup, and tomato juice processing line are produced in aseptic bagged drums from fresh tomatoes to final products.

The processing line mainly includes raw tomato receiving system, washing system, sorting system, crushing system, pulping and refining system, filtration system, concentration system, pasteurization system and aseptic filling system. Then you can get tomato paste in sterile bags in drums.

Besides, tomato paste in aseptic bags in drums can be further packed in tomato ketchup, sauces, juices, sachets, stand-up pouches, metal cans, PP containers, bottles, gable tops, etc.

The key process of the tomato paste processing line

Now Shanghai Gofun machinery company will introduce the information of tomato paste processing line to show it works.

1. Discharge platform

When fresh tomatoes arrive, they are usually unloaded by large trucks, but unloading them manually is a big deal. So, we design a discharge platform, use water guns to discharge the fresh fruits/tomatoes from the truck, and use water to deliver the fresh fruits/tomatoes to the processing line. Also, the discharge platform has another function, which allows pre-washing of fresh fruits/tomatoes before processing.

2. Elevator

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

3. Washing

Before crushing, fresh fruit should be washed carefully. For cleaning, a bubble washer and a spray washer can be used together. Additional stages of cleaning can be added if cleaning requirements are high. In addition, ultrasonic cleaning and ozone cleaning can be added to enhance the cleaning effect.

4. Sorting

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

5. Crushing for tomato processing

GFM-FC series crushers have the most advanced working principle, higher manufacturing precision and best crushing capability. Mainly used for crushing different kinds of fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes, apples, pears, strawberries, celery, etc. It can grind the raw material into small particles to enhance the working effect of the next processing section. The machine consists of feed hopper, side cover, frame, main shaft, bearing block, motor, motor structure, outlet hopper, etc.

6. Preheating

The pre-heater is used to heat the product after crusher, the temperature is adjustable, normally from 45℃ to 85℃. This processing step, would help to higher the juice rate for next step, and also can protect the color and taste of the final product.

7. Pulper and refiner

This machine also runs at a speed of 1470 r/min, creating centrifugal force to force the product through the screen, helping to purify the product. We usually use his two stages, Pulper and Refiner, but each stage has a different screen, with a larger screen in the first stage and a smaller screen in the second stage. Double stage pulping machine for tomato pulp yield can reach 90%~95%. After pulping, the tomato skin and seeds are separated from the tomato pulp. The machine works with large capacity and stable performance. Easy to operate and replace sieves. Suitable for many kinds of fruits, such as passion fruit, tomatoes, peaches, apricots, mangoes, apples, etc.

8. Evaporating

Vacuum evaporator is used to concentrate tomato paste under vacuum and low temperature. A forced circulation vacuum evaporator is used here. Because it is done in a vacuum and at a low temperature, the taste and nutrients are not lost as much as possible. And now we evaporate the water from the tomato pulp to make tomato paste. Brix is typically 28-30% and 36-38%.

9. Sterilizing

A tube-in-tube type sterilizer is used to sterilize tomato paste. Sterilization temperature and holding time are adjustable. This machine is used to heat tomato paste to a very high temperature of about 115°C, hold for 30 seconds, and then quickly cool to ambient temperature. It can also protect as long as the whole system adopts programmable control. The operation system uses an image man-machine interface that is convenient for intuitively grasping the operation status of each part of the device.

10. Aseptic Filling

The aseptic filling machine works with a tube-in-tube type sterilizer. It's a closed cycle. Prior to production, the cycle is fully sterilized to ensure a sterile environment. Also ensure that the filling cavity is also vapor protected and the filling environment is sterile. Security - Provides several security methods. Mirror welding technology is adopted to ensure a clean and smooth welding line. Separate control panel. CIP and Auto SIP available with sterilizer. Easily adjustable for different 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 tomato sauce or ketchup.
