Tomato Paste Production Line

Fresh tomato processing without losing the quality of raw material & least waste. This sentence can cover all the concerns of tomato producers.

The pulping & refining section of this production line with an efficiency of 98% extracts tomato juice to become tomato paste with the best color & texture in the falling-film and forced-circulation evaporators.

Concentration under vacuum & low temperatures completely keeps the properties of raw material and consumption energy get to the lowest possible level.

Hot Break Process

The crushed tomatoes are get to 85-95°c in pre-heater then in 2 steps the tomato juice is concentrated (double-concentrated) in evaporators. The hot break processing is used for products with higher viscosity and denser, and Brix 28-30 like ketchup

Cold Break Process

The crushed tomatoes are get to 75°c in pre-heater and in 3 steps tomato juice is concentrated (triple-concentrated) in evaporators. The cold beak processing is used for production packing tomato paste and products with brix 36-38%.

Tomato Paste Production Line Machines

Tomato Sorting Machine

Washing fresh tomatoes

The best & complete way to wash fresh tomatoes is by using a washing bubble system & air blowing. The water circulation pump forces tomatoes to move in the washing laver. The washing progresses is designed in a way that doesn’t damage the raw materials.

Physical Water Filter

Physical purification of water

The filter separates waste such as leaves & mud from washing tomatoes and returns the clean water to the circulation washing. This process decreases the consuming water of production line in such a way that each dehydrating part can be used for 8 hours.

Tomato Sorting

Tomato Sorting

Tomatoes are rewashed by a high-pressure shower in the elevator and are passed by the conveyor belt in front of the workers so they can remove the tomatoes that are not suitable for processing.

Tomato Chopper

Tomato Chopper

Chopper has 2 mains processes:

One of them is crushing the tomatoes under the pressure of Helis pump and the other one is feeding the production line. In this level the fresh tomatoes are crushed and work being easier to both of machines; preheater and crushing.

Tomato Crusher

Tomato Crusher

Crusher is used for crushing all kind of fruits & vegetables.

In this machine the tomatoes are crushed in to small pieces that is suitable for processing.

Tomato Juice PreHeater

Pre-Heater

This machines is implementer of hot break & cold break. Pre-heater with structure of shell & tube transfers heating crushed tomatoes by steam.

The operation of this machine causes to destruction of enzymes and thus to prevents the hydrolysis of Pectin and loss of the products color.

Tomato Juice Pulping

Purifying Tomato Juice

The heated tomato juice, removed from the preheater machine, is separated from the skin and pulp of the tomatoes by turbo smoothness. This happens when the tomato juice enters the device and passes through the designed meshes. These meshes rotate around a central shaft and create centrifugal force. Then, the skin, tomato seeds, and the hard tissue of the tomatoes are directed to the tomato pomace tank.

Batch Vacuum Evaporator

Batch Evaporator

An Evaporator turns the purified tomato juice into a tomato paste. The batch evaporator is a device for producing tomato paste in lower capacities. The batch device consists of two jacketed capsules:

 A condenser, a water pump, and a system to create a vacuum during cooking. This device converts tomato juice into tomato paste under vacuum at less than 70° c. In this case, the product is made with the best quality.

Force Ciculation Evaporator

Continuous effect Evaporator

We introduce the continuous Condenser. This device replaces the batch Condenser for higher capacities. A continuous Condenser uses a plate and pipe system to convert tomato juice into the paste. This device uses vacuum evaporators to concentrate excess water. In this way, the concentration is done in a shorter time and at a lower temperature to increase the color and taste of the tomato paste.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Tomato Paste production line

A capacity that, in addition to justifying fixed and current costs, can introduce your product in the market.

The steps that are usually mentioned in standard phasing are:

  • The first phase is the founder’s knowledge of the production process and familiarization with the relevant environment and the obstacles ahead, obtaining solutions to overcome the barriers, opportunities, and challenges ahead are experienced in the first year.
  • In the second phase of advertising, continuous presence, exploitation of opportunities, and offering sales offers with minimum profit and maximum circulation, distributors and sellers familiarize themselves with the product produced in the second year.
  • The third phase is diversification in products and reduction of business costs, reduction of production costs, and focus on creating a target market according to the data obtained over two years.
  • The fourth phase is an appropriate response to customer requests according to business and sales feedback, the establishment of internal and external representation, product production considering the environment and target market and customer order, and competitive product export.

Yes – with changes in machines and adding machines related to the type of exploitation, it will be possible to produce fruit concentrate.

As these issues have already been mentioned, some things should be considered for this purpose, some of which are:

  • Product supply and demand, easy access to raw materials, access to the sales and consumption market, and considering the production costs in proportion to the initial investment are all things that will be of great importance in determining the type of manufactured product.

Some of the services of Seamerco Industrial Group are as follows.

  • Consulting in the field of feasibility, location of the factory, market supply and demand analysis, financial and time estimates, and presentation of charts, machines, and equipment.
  •  Factory design, including design and presentation of civil, architectural, electrical, and mechanical plans.
  •  Implementation of infrastructure including septic tank, engine house, electricity, steam, water and water purification, wind.
  •  Design and manufacture of machines or their overhaul.
  • Installation and operation of machines and trial production of products.
  • Training on the operation of machines, supply and maintenance of production line equipment and machines, formulation, periodic support and Or case, 18-month warranty, and ten years after-sales service.
  •  Introduce the commercial and expert sales team and the final product to domestic and foreign merchants.

Based on Seamerco’s proposed model for starting a production line, the path of entrepreneurs from the time of the formation of an idea to the production of the final product includes the following.

  • The first step is expert consultation and an initial feasibility study.
  • The second step is presenting a justification plan and obtaining an establishment license.
  • Third step: designing and manufacturing machinery.
  • Fourth step: Implementation of infrastructure and production line launch.
  • The fifth step is trial production of the product and obtaining an operating license.
  • The sixth step is obtaining health permits.
  • Seventh step: training and counseling.
  • Eighth step: final production, marketing, and sales of the product.
