The juice jam production line is a set of equipment system for large-scale production of juice and jam. Its principles and technologies mainly include raw material processing, concentration, sterilization, filling and packaging. The following will introduce the principles and technology of the juice jam production line in detail.

1. Raw material processing:

Raw material handling for juice jam production line. First, the fresh fruits are peeled, seeded, and impurities removed to remove inedible parts, and then the pulp is chopped or juiced to obtain the required juice pulp. This step can be accomplished through mechanical processing such as peelers, corers, choppers, and juicers.

2. Concentration:

For the concentration process of juice, there are two methods to choose from: vacuum concentration and membrane concentration. Vacuum concentration is to put the juice into a vacuum pot, and use the principle of evaporation and vaporization to evaporate the water under low temperature and high vacuum conditions to increase the concentration of the juice. Membrane concentration uses special membrane materials to separate the water in the juice through osmosis and rejection to concentrate the juice. Both methods are widely used in juice jam production lines.

3. Sterilization:

The sterilization process in the juice jam production line is an important step in ensuring product safety. Commonly used sterilization methods include heat treatment and high-pressure sterilization. Heat treatment refers to heating juice or jam to a certain temperature and maintaining it for a period of time to achieve sterilization. High-pressure sterilization processes juice or jam under high-pressure conditions, using the sterilization effect of high-pressure to achieve the purpose of killing bacteria and microorganisms.

4. Filling:

The next step in the juice jam production line is filling. Depending on the different requirements of the product, automatic or semi-automatic filling methods can be selected. Commonly used filling methods include fully automatic filling machines, semi-automatic filling machines and manual filling machines. These filling machines can automatically fill sterilized juice or jam into bottles or bags, improving production efficiency and product quality.

5. Packaging:

The last step is packaging. Commonly used packaging methods in juice jam production lines include glass bottles, plastic bottles, packaging bags, etc. Choose the appropriate packaging method according to different product requirements and market demand. And ensure the sealing and durability of the packaging to extend the shelf life of the product and improve the overall quality of the product.

In addition to the above main links, the juice jam production line should also include corresponding equipment such as bottle washing, labeling, box sealing, and coding to improve the entire production process. In addition, the production line must be equipped with relevant water treatment equipment, such as water filters, sterilization devices, etc., to ensure clean and hygienic water use. The entire production line should pay attention to quality control and food safety requirements to ensure product quality and safety.

In general, the principles and technologies of the juice jam production line include raw material processing, concentration, sterilization, filling and packaging. Each link has corresponding equipment and process flow, and through automated operation and control, large-scale production is achieved. Through scientific and reasonable production processes and strict quality control, the efficiency, quality and safety of juice jam production can be guaranteed.
