Apple deep processing is inseparable from food machinery. In the process of apple deep processing, the apple needs to be cleaned first. Cleaning equipment can remove dirt, pesticide residues and microorganisms on the surface of the apple to ensure the sanitary quality of the product. Common cleaning equipment are spray cleaning machine, bubble cleaning machine and so on. Spray cleaning machine through high pressure spray water to wash the apple, suitable for cleaning the surface of the smooth apple; The bubble cleaning machine uses the tumbling effect of bubbles to clean the apple in a full range, and the cleaning effect is better.
Crushing equipment. For the production of apple juice, applesauce and other products, the apple needs to be broken. The crushing equipment can break the apple into particles of diffrent sizes for subsequent processing. Common crushing equipment are crusher, beater and so on. The crusher can break the apple into larger particles, which is suitable for the production of cider and other products; The beater can break the apple into a fine pulp, which is suitable for the production of apple juice, applesauce and other products.
Juicing equipment. Apple juice is one of the main products of apple deep processing, the performance of juicing equipment directly affects the quality and yield of apple juice. Common juicing equipment are spiral juicer, hydraulic juicer and so on. The screw juicer squeezes out the juice in the apple through the extrusion of the screw, which has high efficiency and is suitable for large-scale production. The hydraulic juicer uses the hydraulic principle to press the apple, and the juicing effect is good, which is suitable for the production of high-end apple juice.
Drying equipment. Dried apple is a popular apple deep processing product. Drying equipment can remove the water in the apple, extending the shelf life of the product. Common drying equipment are hot air dryer, vacuum dryer and so on. Hot air dryer through the circulation of hot air, the water in the apple evaporates, drying spped is fast, suitable for large-scale production; The vacuum dryer is dried under vacuum conditions, which can better retain the nutritional composition and taste of the apple, and it suitable for the production of high-end dried apple.
Apple deep processing market has broad prospects, through the use of advanced food processing machinery, can produce a variety of apple deep processing products to meet the needs of consumers, but also bring new opportunities for the development of apple industry. Enterprises should choose the appropriate processing technology and equipment according to market demand and their actual situation, constantly improve product quality and competitiveness, and jointly promote the development of apple deep processing industry.
