Detailed introduction to the production process of juice beverage production line

Juice drink production involves two main methods: using fresh fruit or fruit powder.

**1. Using Fresh Fruit:**

- **Selection Criteria:** Choose fruits with high juice yield, good sensory qualities, nutritional value, freshness, and commercial value. Ideal fruits include apples (77–86% juice yield), pears (78–82%), grapes (76–85%), strawberries (70–80%), and citrus fruits (40–50%).

- **Process Steps:**

1. Fruit selection

2. Washing

3. Crushing

4. Juice extraction and coarse filtration

5. Clarification and fine filtration

6. Homogenization and deaeration

7. Aroma recovery

8. Blending and adjustment

**2. Using Fruit Powder:**

- **Process:** Mix fruit powder with sweeteners, coloring, and flavorings to create a finished fruit-flavored beverage.

**Production Line Components:**

1. **Water Treatment:**

- Includes raw water tank, pumps, filters, reverse osmosis, UV sterilizer, and storage tanks.

- Water is used for bottle rinsing, beverage blending, and equipment cleaning.

2. **Syrup Preparation and Blending:**

- Pure water → Sugar boiler → Mixing tank (sugar, juice, additives) → Homogenizer → Hot/cold tanks → Vacuum degassing → Pasteurizer.

- Hot and cold tanks maintain the beverage at 85°C for quality preservation.

3. **Filling, Packaging, and Sales:**

- Equipment includes blow molding machines, 3-in-1 filling machines (rinsing, filling, capping), sterilization, cooling, labeling, and packaging machines.

- The 3-in-1 hot filling machine ensures beverages are filled at high temperatures (85°C) for sterilization and quality.

This comprehensive process ensures the production of high-quality, appealing, and profitable fruit-flavored beverages.
