Pome fruit processing technology

With a core of several small seeds surrounded by a tough membrane, apples, pears, nashi and quince are processed into a variety of products, but one of the most common, by far, is pressed fruit juice with the largest volume of processed pome fruits — apples, in particular. Apple and pear juice can take on many forms, including a natural-style cloudy juice, a nectar containing suspended solids and clarified juice.

SRAML R&D team designs a product-specific solution adapted to each pome fruit product and its method of sorting, washing, grinding, extraction, preservation and packaging.

Whether you opt for individual or complete juice machinery to make pome fruit juice or pome fruit purée, or request a mobile processing line, our in-house R&D expert team will help you select just the equipment you need and work with you on project planning to develop the best solution for your business.

Sorting conveyors enable efficient and smooth transport of the pome fruit to the mills and crushers while allowing for visual inspection so that the poor-quality produce can be easily sorted out.

Sorting conveyors enable efficient and smooth transport of stone fruits from their reception to the bubble washer and destoner‒pulper while allowing for visual inspection so that the poor-quality crop can be easily sorted out.

Fruit washer performs a safe and efficient washing and cleaning of the fruit before processing by removing grass, leaves, and other loose foreign parts from the fruit.

Mill grinds various types of whole fruits and vegetables without stones into a uniform mash to prepare it for pressing.

Mash pump enables a safe and smooth transport of fruit mash from the mill or crusher into the press.

Washer-Elevator-Mill unit — an alternative to our standard line: Washer JP, Conveyor JT, Mill JM and mash pump — is used when there is little space available and consists of 3 machines in one: washbasin, belt elevator and mill.

Washer-Auger-Mill unit — an alternative to our standard line: Washer JP, Conveyor JT, Mill JM and mash pump — is used when there is little space available and consists of 3 machines in one: washbasin, auger elevator and mill.

Pneumatic Fruit Press presses fruit mash against perforated drain channels of a cylinder in a single or multiple pressing cycle to extract as much juice as possible.

Belt press is designed to squeeze a layer of fruit pulp between one or two moving belts and rollers, causing the juice to be forced out through the belt and into the collection trays.

Self-cleaning filter removes any particles and bits of fruit in the juice or purée after processing, while also reducing suspended sediment in the juice.

Juice tanks are designed for safe and airtight storage of the juice under atmospheric pressure to preserve its organoleptic features.

Clear juice filter is designed to treat raw juice with enzymes to remove suspended solid materials, giving you the finest product as per your requirement.

Clean-in-Place provide a thorough cleaning and disinfection of the processing equipment such as fillers, flash pasteurizers, mixers, syrup rooms, piping systems and tanks by significantly reducing cleaning time and costs. CIP tanks ensure a safer solution for pollution reduction and recycling of water with cleaning elements.

Pasteurizer heats the juice to the point of destroying all organisms that may develop once the juice is put hot into containers and hermetically sealed. Hot water heats the juice in narrow tubes (tube pasteurizer) or between plates (plate pasteurizer) by means of a heat exchanger.

Bottle filler is based on the gravity filling system coupled with semi-automatic container closing systems.

Bag-in-box fillers are designed for volumetric filling of a wide range of pumpable products, both liquids and solids, food and non-food, into single bags with 1-inch spouts.

Automatic bottling equipment enables a smooth filling operation using containers such as glass bottles, plastic bottles and aluminium cans as well as different closure systems.

Cooling tank lowers the temperature of the packaged juice whether in BiB packaging or twist-off bottles.
