Product description of the apple processing line

The operation and procedures of the applesauce production line will be fine-tuned and optimized based on the type of product, production scale, and market requirements to deliver top-quality applesauce products that align with market needs.

Apple Receiving and Washing Phase: Initially, fresh apples are collected and inspected to validate their quality. A comprehensive washing process is conducted to efficiently eliminate dirt, debris, and any residues.

• Sorting and Grading Phase: Apples are meticulously sorted based on parameters like size, color, and ripeness to guarantee that only premium apples advance to subsequent processing stages.
• Apple Peeling and Coring Phase: At this stage, apples are peeled and cored to remove the skin and core, preparing them for further processing steps.
• Cutting and Slicing Phase: Following peeling and coring, apples can be sliced or cut into varying sizes as required for the final product, such as apple slices for snacks or pie fillings.
• Apple Pressing and Extraction Phase: This stage involves extracting juice from the apples. The apples are pressed or crushed to extract juice, separating it from the pulp.
• Filtration and Clarification Phase: The apple juice undergoes filtration to eliminate any remaining solids or impurities, resulting in clear and pure apple juice.
• Pasteurization and Preservation Phase: To ensure safety and extend shelf life, apple juice is pasteurized to eradicate harmful bacteria and microorganisms.
• Concentration Phase: Certain apple products, like apple concentrate or puree, necessitate water removal to enhance flavor and prolong shelf stability. Concentration techniques are utilized to achieve this.
• Packaging and Filling Phase: The final apple products are packaged in containers such as bottles, cans, pouches, or jars. Proper packaging guarantees adequate sealing and preservation, maintaining the freshness and quality of the apple products.
