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 tomato come, normally with big truck, if discharge with human, it would be very difficult. And there is another function of the discharge platform, it can pre-wash fresh fruit/tomato before processing.So, we design the discharge platform and use water gun to discharge fresh fruit/tomato from truck, also use water to delivery fresh fruit/tomato to the processing line. 

2. Elevator

3. Washing

Before crushing, need to washing fresh fruit carefully.  Also, for better cleaning effect, we can add ultrasonic cleaning and ozone cleaning.For washing we can use bubble washing machine and spray washing machine together. More stages of washing can be added,if the washing requirement is high.

4. Sorting

After washing, the surface of the fruit is clean, we can check the situation of all the fruit by human eye.

5. Crushing for tomato processing

The machine is composed of feed hopper, side cover, frame, principal axis, bearing block, motor, motor structure, outlet hopper etc.

6. Preheating

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 is also running with speed of 1470 r/min, it causes the centrifugal force and the product will go through screen, helps to refine the product. And normally we use double stage of pulper and refiner, the screen of each stage is different, for first stage the screen would be bigger, and for second stage the screen would be smaller. The double stage pulping machine for tomato pulp yield rate can reach 90%~95%. After pulping, tomato peel and seeds will be separated from tomato pulp. The machine works with high capacity and stable performance;Suitable for many different kinds of fruits that are including the passion fruit, tomato, peach, apricot, mango, apple and etc.;

8. Evaporating

Vacuum Evaporator is used for concentrating the tomato paste under vacuum and low temperature. Here we are using Forced Circulation Vacuum Evaporator. Because it’s under vacuum and low temperature, so the tastes and nutrients would be protected as much as possible. Now, we evaporate the water from the tomato pulp, normally the Brix is 28-30% and 36-38%,then we will get the tomato paste.

9. Sterilizing

For tomato paste we use tube in tube type sterilizer for sterilizing. 

10. Aseptic Filling

The aseptic filling machine works together with the tube in tube type sterilizer. 

11. Storage or go blending

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