pineapple juice processing line

Introduction of pineapple juice processing line

Pineapple is a kind of famous tropical fruit, which is originated in South America, and now extensively cultivated in tropical or subtropical areas of the Asian, African and American. It contains much vitamins and minerals, so drinking the juice will help you to reach your daily intake of many of these quickly. As part of a balanced diet, pineapple in moderation is a great way to meet your necessary nutrition.
Pineapple juice processing line is mainly used to extract juice from pineapples. And the production capacity ranges from 3t/h to 10t/h. We can meet different requirements of the clients. The entire juicing process generally includes: elevating> fruit selecting> brush type washing> surfing washing>peeling and extracting> pulping. Our process of pineapple juice processing line is as the following flowchart with the main machines:

1. Fruit elevator 2. Fruit sorter 3. Brush and spray cleaning machine 4.  Surfing washing machine 5. Fruit elevator 6. Peeling and extracting machine 7. Pump

Procedures of producing pineapple juice

In this line, the pineapples was selected and cleaned thoroughly before extracting, then it was feed into the peeling and extracting machine, which is a special equipment manufactured according to the characteristic of the pineapples. After the equipment processing, we can obtain first juice, waste skin and pulp. The waste skin was discharged outdoor, the first juice was collected in a tank under the machine, and can be refined further according to clients’ requirement, the pulp was conveyed to the pulping machine, through this step we can obtain second juice and fruit slag, the second juice also can be refined further to meet the requirement of clients’ specific application.   

Advantages of Our Pineapple Juice Processing Line

• Large production capacity, range from 3t to 10t, suitable for the production requirement of large and medium-sized factory.
• The pineapples need not selected by dimension; the line can deal with pineapples of all grades.
• It is special equipment, manufactured according to the characteristics of the pineapples, which adjusted certain parts of the machine, can deal with different kinds of pineapples.
• Two or three times extracting can improve the rate of juice, which reaches up to 67%-85%.

Main Equipments of pineapple juice processing line

Fruits Elevator

Introduction of fruit elevator
This fruits elevator is used in the low or high level lifting and conveying of fruit and vegetables. And mostly composed of bracket, bucket, motor and engineering plastics mesh belt. The bracket is made of SUS 304 stainless steel with sturdy structure ,  bucket is food class , motor adopts stepless speed adjust device, can change speed smoothly, engineering plastics mesh belt adopts modular structure, which can hardly damage the conveying materials, and easy cleaning with no dead angle.
Features of pineapple elevator

• Long lifespan with the characteristics of low failure rate, low noise, and high efficiency.
• Adopts U type scraper blade which can prevent the pineapples stacking or falling.
• The speed of the motor can be adjustable which can improve the stability of the equipment.

Fruit Sorting Machine

Description of fruit sorting machine
Fruit sorting machine is made of stainless steel profile by welding and forming with thickness is 1.5 mm. The rolling lever parts are made of special shout shaft stainless steel and chain wheel are made of 1Cr13 stainless steel. Adopting stepless speed adjust device, can control the working capacity of an hour by running speed.  
Working principle of fruit sorting machine
The stainless steel chain makes the tube moving revolution, and meanwhile the tubes rotates on the rubber track because of friction, so the fruits on the tubes will rotate freely, and the bad quality fruits will be picked up and separated manually.
You also can add spray cleaning device at outside of the discharge port.

Brush and Spray Cleaning Machine for Pineapples

Brush cleaning machine, known as brush roller machine, is special equipment manufactured according to the characters of the pineapples, it uses the food grade transmission and elastic brush cleaning, using the high-speed rotating brush with high pressure spray. Its cleaning effect is good, can thoroughly clean the stain on the surface of the pineapple.
Brush and spray cleaning machine is mostly composed of bracket, water tank, shield, water pump, brush and etc. bracket, water tank and shield are made of stainless steel by welding and forming, with its thickness is 2 mm, stainless steel polished seamless steel circulation line, and transmission shaft and chain are made of 1Cr13 stainless steel. The height of brush and spray cleaning machine can be adjusted.

Surfing Washing Machine

Description of surfing washing machine

surfing washing machine is mainly composed of water tank, upender, blower, roller, spray water tube, hopper and etc .water tank and elevator frame are made of stainless steel, with its thickness is 1.5 mm, transmission shaft and chain are made of 1Cr13 stainless steel. Equip with circulating water pump, wash pineapples with high pressure. Special design of surfing and bubbling ensure a thorough cleaning and lessening the damage to the fruit as well.    
Working Principle of surfing washing machine
The blower runs the air through water tank and makes the water keep rolling, because of the rotation, rapid flow scours the surface of the fruits and washes the dirt out .Blending by air; the machine can wash the dirt quickly and not breaking fruits under acutely rotation, so it suited for cleaning of pineapples.

Peeling and Extracting Machine for Pineapples

Introduction of peeling and extracting machine for pineapples
Peeling and extracting machine adopts international advanced technology and designed according to the characteristics of pineapples, integrates the functions of peeling, coring and slicing. With the high rate of juice, compact structure, fruit size without classification, it is ideal and advanced equipment to process pineapples.
Working Process
When pineapples were selected and cleaned, they were fed into the top of the peeling and extracting machine.
There are double roll under the hopper did relative motion, and bring the fruit to the broken half knife, and cut fruits in half. Then the juice was extracted about 50% under the action of principle of sieve plate involute. Finally, the pulp and fruit skin are separated by the scraper, pulp was conveyed to the pulping machine by the screw pump, and the waste fruit skin was discharged to the outdoor by the screw conveyor. The juice was flow into the tank under the machine and pumping to the storage tank or into the next machine to refine further according to clients’ requirement.

3t/h	8	1500*1200*1800
5t/h	11	1800*1300*2200
10t/h	15	2000*1350*2500

Pineapple Pulping Machine

Pineapple pulping machine adopts the international advanced technical and integrates the functions of crushing and centrifugation, can separate juice and fruit slag quickly, and remove the kernel effectively. Because pineapple pulping machine is working in fully enclosed state, so it can reduce the oxidation of the juice, and maximize reserve the taste and nutrition of the raw materials. The content of the solid in juice and humidity of the peel slag can be adjusted.
