Juice beverage production line in layman's terms, is the fresh fruit squeeze orange juice into a drink, using plastic bottles, glass bottles or cans and other packaging materials for packaging, sales to the beverage market. Juice drinks are not as simple as pure water, mineral water, etc., first of all, you need to understand what type of fruit, what kind of process to extract juice, using crushing and juicing, or in the form of steaming and pulping. Different types of fruits, such as apples, mangoes, kiwi, yellow peaches, hawthorn, etc., its pre-processing technology is different. From the general direction, the whole fruit juice beverage filling line is more or less the same, including pure water purification system, fresh fruit juice extraction system, batching, filtration, homogenization, degassing, sterilization system, beverage filling, capping system, pouring bottle sterilization system, secondary spray sterilization and cooling system, bottle surface blow-drying system, labeling system, coding system, packaging system, pipeline cleaning system and so on after daily production. The same fruit is also divided into cloudy juice and clear juice, beverage processing technology is also very different. To make clear juice requires enzymatic clarification treatment, which is quite complicated. Therefore, before making juice drinks, we need to first determine the type of fruit, determine the way of juice extraction, and then determine the production process of the entire juice production line. Of course, a large part of the production of raw fruit juice drinks are locally rich in fruit resources, there are also many beverage manufacturers directly buy juice pulp back to the blending after packaging, which is much simpler than from the beginning of the fresh fruit to do. The following is a detailed explanation of the glass bottle fruit juice filling production line. A complete automatic glass bottle juice beverage production line equipment: water treatment equipment, sugar pot, dosing tank, duplex filter, homogenizer, vacuum degasser, sterilizer, holding tank, CIP cleaning system, empty bottle conveyor, three-in-one hot filling equipment, automatic capper, on-line cap sterilizer, finished product delivery, inverted bottle sterilizer, spray sterilizer and cooling equipment, strong blow-drying machine, spray-coding machine, labeling machine, carton packaging machine. Juice drink production line, according to different users, different actual situation, our company can provide complete sets of juice drink production line, according to the production speed to distinguish, such as the following grades can be used for beverage manufacturers to choose, is divided into small 2000 bottles/hour, 4000 bottles/hour, 6000 bottles/hour, 10,000 bottles/hour, 15,000 bottles/hour, 20,000 bottles/hour, 25,000 bottles/hour-36,000 bottles/hour. hour-36000 bottles/hour.
When it comes to the taste of the juice drink produced, it is still very important to use pure water to ingredient, the taste is a little better. Production of pure water source water can be taken from the tap water, groundwater or lake water, through a water treatment process, the production of pure water, out of the water molecules completely. A complete set of pure water production system in order to configure the following: pretreatment section: raw water tanks, booster pumps, quartz sand filters, activated carbon filters, ion softeners, precision filters, the core processing equipment: RO reverse osmosis, sterilization equipment: ultraviolet sterilizer.
The juice pulp is used to make juice drinks, and the sugar pot is used to dissolve sugar and adjust the sweetness of the drinks. The main ingredients are in the mixing tank to complete, need to configure two sets of ingredients pot, a pot of ingredients, another pot to send materials. During the batching process, flavors and other accessories are added to adjust the taste, acidity, sweetness and color of the beverage. The duplex filter adopts screen filtration to remove some impurities incorporated in the dosage process, so as to make the beverage taste more delicate. The homogenizer generally adopts 25mpa pressure, and shears the fruit juice through high pressure to prevent the material from precipitation. Immediately after the juice material into the vacuum deoxidizer, try to reduce the oxygen content of the juice, under the action of the pressure difference, the juice produced in the foam also automatically disappears, but also increase the shelf life. Immediately after entering the sterilization machine for sterilization, control the sterilization temperature and time, the general temperature of the material are about 90 degrees, with insulation tanks to store juice drinks, for hot filling operations. It should be noted that the sugar pot, dosage tank, holding tank is a three-layer sandwich pot, are through the steam heating, electric heating can also be, but the cost will be very high, it is recommended to configure a small boiler, for steam heating.
Juice drink production line, glass bottle juice drink filling machine and plastic bottles of juice filling machine appearance is more or less the same, the function is also the same, including rinsing, hot filling, capping three major functions. Just pass the way is different, glass bottle is drag the bottom of the bottle to pass, plastic bottle is clip the mouth of the bottle to pass. The rinsing of glass bottles needs to use hot water rinsing, to avoid bursting bottles when hot filling. Mainly depends on the local climate and temperature, especially in winter, when the temperature is very low, must be pre-rinsed with warm water, the rinse water used for the finished product pure water. Glass bottles using hot filling is also with a little negative pressure structure, the bottle mouth and filling valve below the sealing gasket close contact, and top open the filling valve mouth, 85 degrees or so of juice drinks will be with their own gravity self-flow to the inside of the bottle, at the same time the filling valve on the vacuum reflux pipeline is also pumping, so that the bottle exhaust a little faster, which will also speed up the speed of filling. The so-called hot filling, juice filling machine itself is not with the heating function, just in the material cylinder installed with a temperature control detector, such as setting a temperature value of 85 degrees, as long as the temperature of the material in the cylinder has been in the 85 degrees, it is normal operation, once the material temperature is detected to be lower than 85 degrees, the juice three-in-one filling machine will immediately stop working, all the juice in the cylinder material will be through the vacuum reflux canisters, be pumped into the reflux filling. Suction to the reflux filling, and then send the material to the sterilization machine again sterilization, and then filling, so that the purpose is to ensure that the juice drink filling at 85 degrees, to avoid breeding bacteria, affecting the shelf life of beverages. Glass bottle juice drink cap, now commonly used three screw cap, four screw cap, etc., the use of ordinary screw cap will appear certain problems, if the band cap with the band is not in place
Juice drinks on the production of environmental requirements are very high, the cap before the screw cap is also need to be sterilized. Automatic capping machine will be transferred to the in-line sterilization tunnel, in turn, sterilization, rinsing, blow-dry, and then into the lid chute, then into the capping machine capping operation. The finished product of juice drink after sealing is output with the conveying line, and then immediately enters into the inverted bottle sterilizing device, which puts the bottle upside down at 90 degrees, and sterilizes the inside of the cap with the temperature of the juice drink, and the sterilizing time is 15-30s, which avoids the bacteria inside of the cap from entering into the inside of the drink, and breeds bacteria.
Juice drink production line, according to the different types of drinks, in the cooling of the beverage before, but also need to carry out the second sterilization treatment, this is the spray sterilization and cooling equipment, mainly on the finished juice drinks for the second pasteurization, the temperature of 80 degrees or so, the sterilization time of 30 minutes or so, to achieve the effect of the second sterilization, and then immediately into the cooling process. It should be noted that the juice material is in a high temperature state for a long time, which will affect the taste and color of the drink. Because it is a glass bottle, so we should use segmented cooling, not directly with cold water rinse, otherwise it will burst the bottle, the first 60 degrees of warm water, and then 40 degrees of warm water, and then 20 degrees of warm water, the purpose of which is to cool down the temperature of the beverage to room temperature can be.
After the spray, glass bottle drinks also need to carry out some of the packaging process, the bottle needs to be blown dry, spray code, labeling, packaging operations. Printer is now more advanced for the laser coding, relative to inkjet coding, its low-consumption, do not need to add ink, the coding effect is a little clearer, there will be no nozzle clogging phenomenon, the service life is also a little longer, but the cost of the equipment is a little higher. The use of fiber laser output laser, fiber laser marking machine electro-optical conversion efficiency, the use of air-cooled cooling, compact size, good output beam quality, high reliability, long operating life, energy saving.
Juice drink production line, high-grade glass bottled drinks commonly used self-adhesive labeling, just labeling different ways, there is a single-side labeling, multi-side labeling, positioning labeling. Labeling machine working principle: the sensor detects the product passes through, sends back a signal to the labeling control system, the signal is processed by the PLC, and then sends out the label to be attached to the product in the set position at the appropriate moment, and then the product flows through the labeling device, and the label is covered firmly, and the attachment action of a label is completed.
Carton packaging machine is a high-end juice drinks commonly used shape packaging, compared to PE film packaging to a higher level, but the cost of equipment, as well as packaging materials cost a little higher. We generally use a piece of carton packaging machine, that is, the kind of glue sealing. There is also the use of opening, loading, tape sealing packaging equipment, equipment cost is a little lower, covers a larger area, packaging visual effect is also slightly lower than a grade. If the output is small, you can choose to manually box, using tape sealing machine package.
