 Tomato processing Technology

Tomato processing can be an instrumental skill for farmers who want to convert the tomatoes into various other products besides using them as vegetables. This technical brief contains the varieties of ways a farmer can process the tomato into many other products. Tomatoes are known to be the most important crop economically among various other vegetables in the world. The return of investment in growing tomatoes is tremendous due to its high growth capacity while the crop cycle duration is very short.








We can set up a tomato processing plant on a turnkey basis where fresh tomatoes will be processed to manufacture tomato puree/ketchup, tomato concentrate, and tomato paste.
  • We SSEC offer automatic and semi-automatic plants for tomato processing.
  • The size can be customized from 1 Ton/D to 500Ton/D.
  • All the major parts of the machinery are created using SS 304, SS 316 is also available as per your requirement.
        To set up a tomato processing plant we require the following machines
  • washing(bubble washer)
  • sorting
  • Tomato crusher 
  • pulping processing machine
  • Tomato pulp preheating system
  • Tomato paste evaporator
  • Sterilizer
  • Tomato paste aseptic filler
washing:
  • The tomatoes are washed by floating water from a bubble washing/ Float washing machine. A bubble generator situated at the bottom of the machine is acting as the source of the floating water. 
  • During the process of Bubble washing, the tomatoes don’t get any harm. The waste and the sand after washing the tomatoes will get discharged. tomatoes don’t get any harm. The waste and the sand after washing the tomatoes will get discharged.

sorting:
  • After washing the tomatoes we will get clean tomatoes we need to sort out the bad and green and unripened tomatoes from the good quality tomatoes in order to get high-quality tomato paste
  • sorting is performed based on the color, shape, size, etc it can perform the automatic or manual process

Tomato crusher:
  • SSEC  crusher is made through the most advanced working principle, higher accuracy of manufacture, and best crushing functions. It is mainly used for crushing many kinds of fruits or vegetables, for example, tomato, apple, pear, strawberry, celery, fiddlehead, etc. it can crush the raw materials into small particles, and it will be better for the next processing section.
  • The machine is composed of a feed hopper, side cover, frame, principal axis, bearing block, motor, motor structure, outlet hopper, etc.

pulping processing machine:
  • we transfer the crushed tomatoes to the pulping machine to get the tomato paste which size is 0.4-0.6mm but in order to enhance the juice yield rate, before pulping we use the preheater to heat tomato pulp to 60 degrees for 15 mins and the tomato pulp yield rate is about 90% after pulping the tomato peel and seed will be separated from tomato pulp.


Tomato pulp preheating system:
  • we use preheater to treat tomato pulp there are two types of process one is for hot break tomato paste, tomato pulp will be heated to 85-90 degrees for 10 -15 mins
  • The other type is the cold break which will be heated to 55-60 degree to 10-15 mins to destroy pectinase activity soften tomato pulp ease to separate and enhance the pulp rate


   Tomato paste evaporator & Sterilizer:
  •    The force circulation evaporator can evaporate the raw tomato pulp into tomato paste
  •    we use a sterilizer to do heat treatment of the tomato paste to remove the bacteria of the tomato paste to get the longest shelf life.
 Tomato paste aseptic filler:
  • After tomato pastes sterilizing we use the aseptic filler to fill into aseptic bags and filling Temperature is about 40 degrees and the tomato paste in aseptic bags can reach 2   years shelf life.
     
   How it works?
  • In these processes, the Tomato's are received from farms and washed with high-pressure water in the fruit washing machine to remove all harmful substances from tomato's, which includes chemicals such as pesticides.
  • The cleaned tomatoes to the next procedure to the sorting here workers pick out the unqualified tomatoes to ensure the quality of the end product after washing and sorting the tomatoes are crushed peeled and the seed is separated
  • Using the hot break or cold break it is preheated that enhance the pulp rate
  • we evaporate and sterilize the pulp to increase the shelf life and use the aseptic filling for filling.

  


Benefits of  Running Tomato processing plant:
  • With an annual growth of over 20% per annum, the demand for tomato sauce is getting huge in India which is expected to rise more in times to come.
  • It provides an opportunity for the industry people to sell their products at a higher rate, making profits
  • Reduced labor requirements
  • 24/7reliability
Features of the tomato processing plant:
  • Our lines are characterized by long-experience know-how, strong construction, and energy saving.
  • The pulper is made up of tube in tube Spira flow pipes for steam and products It is possible to adjust the temperature from 50° to 150°C.
  • More quality of organoleptic characteristics, the keeping of color, and finished product.
  •  Deactivating the enzymes likely to be generated
Applications of tomato processing plant:
  • It is mainly used in food factories, bakeries, restaurants, retails, Manufacturing Plant, Food & Beverage Factory, Farms.
