Main Tomato Processing Equipment
Equipment selection can be adjusted according to raw material condition, processing scale, product type and packaging requirements.
Wool Roller / Bubble Cleaner
The wool roller cleaner is suitable for tomatoes with more impurities and mud. Bubble cleaning is suitable for relatively clean tomatoes.
Blanching Line
Blanching can improve juice yield and help the peel fall off more easily. It is generally suitable for small-output processing.
Double Beater / Pulping Machine
The double beater refines tomato material and separates pulp from skin and seeds through the beating and screening process.
Vacuum Concentrator
The vacuum concentrator includes a heater, concentrator, vapor-liquid separator, condenser and liquid receiving barrel.
Tubular UHT Sterilizer
Suitable for juice, liquid food, fruit pulp and higher-viscosity products containing fibers or particles.
Aseptic Filling Machine
Single-head or double-head configurations are available. Double-head filling supports continuous production and can improve efficiency.
Tomato Sauce & Ketchup Processing Equipment
Additional equipment can be integrated for formulated tomato products.
Mixing Tank
The mixing tank can use single-layer, double-layer insulated or three-layer heated construction according to processing temperature. Agitator speed can be selected according to material solubility and viscosity.
High-Temperature Sterilization Retort
Hot-water circulation, steam and spray sterilization methods can be selected. Spray sterilization provides uniform heating and rapid heating and cooling, and is suitable for flexible packaged foods.
Tomato Product Filling Solutions
The filling system is selected according to product characteristics, container type and final packaging format.
