Small tomato ketchup production line needs to be configured, tomato washing and drying machine, tomato crusher, tomato pulper, tomato ketchup jacket pot, tomato ketchup filling machine, water bath pasteurizer. In order to ensure the automatic operation process of the tomato ketchup production line, we will also configure the corresponding pipelines, pumps, buffer tanks, etc. according to customer needs to ensure the smooth operation of the equipment.

Tomato washing and drying: Tomato washing mainly removes dust, bugs and other attachments on the tomato surface through bubble cleaning + high-pressure spraying, thereby ensuring the positive taste of tomato ketchup;

Tomato crushing: The whole tomato fruit is crushed in a closed environment, and the crushing process does not contact the air, which ensures the color and cleanliness of the tomato ketchup;

Tomato pulping: the crushed tomatoes enter the tomato pulper through the pipeline to obtain finer tomato pulp (if there is a higher requirement for the fineness of the tomato pulp, the tomato pulp can be further ground by configuring a colloid mill) , the tomato skin and tomato seeds will be automatically discharged to avoid mixing into the tomato pulp to affect the flavor, texture and taste of the tomato ketchup;

Cooking tomato pulp: Tomato pulp contains more water. In order to achieve the consistency and silky taste of tomato ketchup, we also need to cook the obtained tomato pulp in a tomato pulp jacketed pot. The excess water in the tomato pulp is evaporated by high temperature, and it can play the role of high temperature sterilization. The jacketed pot we configure has its own stirring function, which can not only prevent the tomato ketchup from sticking to the pot during the cooking process, but also stir the added seasonings (sugar, salt, citric acid, chili sauce, etc.) evenly.

Canned tomato ketchup: Tomato ketchup can have different packaging forms, the common ones are bagged, bottled, canned, boxed, etc. The common specifications of bagged tomato ketchup are 10g, 30g, 100g, 300g, etc. packaging form. The packaging cost of bagged tomato ketchup is low, and it conforms to the characteristics of tomato ketchup ready-to-eat, so it is currently the most popular form of tomato ketchup packaging. We can provide different forms of tomato ketchup packaging equipment according to customer's packaging needs.

Pasteurization of canned tomato ketchup: The tomato ketchup is packaged by hot canning, which ensures that the canned tomato ketchup will not breed bacteria and prolongs the shelf life of the tomato ketchup. However, the seal or screw cap of the tomato ketchup is a place where bacteria can easily grow, so the packaged tomato ketchup needs to be sterilized in a water bath. The shelf life of water bath sterilized tomato ketchup is up to 6 months! !
