Juice Beverage Filling Equipment: Detailed Introduction

Fruit and vegetable juices are packed with essential nutrients, particularly high concentrations of vitamin C, which can help prevent artery hardening, combat aging, and boost the body's immunity. As a beloved beverage, fruit juice production encompasses a range of flavors, such as orange juice, pineapple juice, grape juice, apple juice, mango juice, pomegranate juice, and carrot juice, among others. In this article, we will provide a comprehensive overview of juice beverage filling equipment and its production process.

I. Components of Fruit and Vegetable Juice Beverage Production Line

A typical fruit and vegetable juice beverage production line comprises various essential equipment to ensure an efficient production process and quality control. These equipment include:

1. Water Treatment Equipment: This encompasses steam burst tanks, quartz sand filtration, activated carbon filtration, precision filtration, primary reverse osmosis, ultraviolet sterilization, and sterile storage to ensure the quality and safety of the water used.
2. Bottle Rinsing Machine: Used to clean and prepare bottles for filling.
3. Filling Machine: Responsible for accurately filling the bottles with the juice beverage.
4. Capping Machine: Used to seal the bottle caps to prevent contamination.
5. Sterilization Equipment: Employed with high-temperature short-time sterilization methods to ensure the beverage's safety and extend its shelf life.
6. CIP (Clean in Place) Cleaning System: Utilized to clean the production line's pipelines and containers to maintain hygiene and operational efficiency.
7. Filtration Equipment: Employed to clarify the juice, ensuring its clarity and taste.
8. Packaging Equipment: Used to package the finished beverage into its final retail packaging.

II. Process of Fruit and Vegetable Juice Beverage Production

The production process of fruit and vegetable juice beverages typically involves the following key steps:

1. Water Treatment Stage: Ensuring excellent water quality through steam burst tanks, quartz sand filtration, activated carbon filtration, precision filtration, primary reverse osmosis, ultraviolet sterilization, and sterile storage.
2. Raw Material Processing Stage: Preprocessing raw materials, followed by juice extraction or infusion, and subsequent clarification and filtration to remove impurities.
3. Blending and Standardization Stage: Mixing and standardizing the raw materials in blending tanks, followed by processes like ultra-high-temperature instant sterilization, vacuum degassing, homogenization, and sterile storage.
4. CIP Cleaning Stage: Utilizing CIP cleaning systems to wash the entire production line's pipelines and containers, ensuring hygiene and unhindered production.

III. Characteristics of Fruit and Vegetable Juice Beverage Production Process

Our provided equipment for fruit and vegetable juice beverage production lines offers several distinctive features:

1. Optimized Heating Process: Proper heating enhances fruit juice texture, softens the fruit pulp, and increases juice yield. Typical processing conditions are 60-70°C for 15-30 minutes.
2. Meeting the Demand for Cloudy Juice: Cloudy juice is primarily used for products packaged in glass bottles, while tinplate cans are less commonly used. Frozen and concentrated juices usually do not require homogenization.
3. Anti-Oxidation Measures: Oxygen present in juices can degrade Vitamin C and affect flavor and color. We employ vacuum degassing and nitrogen exchange methods to reduce oxygen content.
4. Sterilization Process Selection: Our approach combines microbial elimination with minimal impact on product quality. The most common method used is high-temperature short-time (93±2°C for 15-30 seconds).
5. Filling After Sterilization: We offer options for hot filling and cold filling, depending on product requirements.
