Product description of the apple processing line
The operation and procedures of the applesauce production line will
be fine-tuned and optimized based on the type of product,
production scale, and market requirements to deliver top-quality
applesauce products that align with market needs.
Apple Receiving and Washing Phase: Initially, fresh apples are
collected and inspected to validate their quality. A comprehensive
washing process is conducted to efficiently eliminate dirt, debris,
and any residues.
- Sorting and Grading Phase: Apples are meticulously sorted based on
parameters like size, color, and ripeness to guarantee that only
premium apples advance to subsequent processing stages.
- Apple Peeling and Coring Phase: At this stage, apples are peeled
and cored to remove the skin and core, preparing them for further
processing steps.
- Cutting and Slicing Phase: Following peeling and coring, apples can
be sliced or cut into varying sizes as required for the final
product, such as apple slices for snacks or pie fillings.
- Apple Pressing and Extraction Phase: This stage involves extracting
juice from the apples. The apples are pressed or crushed to extract
juice, separating it from the pulp.
- Filtration and Clarification Phase: The apple juice undergoes
filtration to eliminate any remaining solids or impurities,
resulting in clear and pure apple juice.
- Pasteurization and Preservation Phase: To ensure safety and extend
shelf life, apple juice is pasteurized to eradicate harmful
bacteria and microorganisms.
- Concentration Phase: Certain apple products, like apple concentrate
or puree, necessitate water removal to enhance flavor and prolong
shelf stability. Concentration techniques are utilized to achieve
this.
- Packaging and Filling Phase: The final apple products are packaged
in containers such as bottles, cans, pouches, or jars. Proper
packaging guarantees adequate sealing and preservation, maintaining
the freshness and quality of the apple products.

Shanghai Gofun machinery company offers all kinds of apple
processing line.
The raw materials are fresh apples, apple juice, etc., and the
final products are apple paste, apple sauce, apple juice, apple
powder, apple slices, etc.
- Apple Juice: The apples undergo washing, crushing, and pressing to

smooth sauce. Flavor-enhancing ingredients like sugar may be added.
Apple sauce is commonly used as a condiment, cooking ingredient, or
dessert topping.
