Chestnuts, those sweet and delicious fruits, whether it is the tempting aroma of sugar-fried chestnuts or the rich taste of chestnut products, are inseparable from the fine processing of various sophisticated machines in the processing plant. For chestnut processing plants, choosing the right machinery and equipment is the key to ensuring the high quality of chestnut products and meeting market demand. The following is an introduction to the machines needed by chestnut processing plants:
1. Raw material processing equipment
Chestnut shelling machine: used to remove the shell of chestnuts, improve processing efficiency, and reduce the workload and cost of manual shelling. Common shelling machines include mechanical extrusion type, centrifugal type and other different types. You can choose the appropriate model according to the size, variety and processing volume of chestnuts.
Chestnut endocarp machine: After the chestnut is shelled, the endocarp is often still attached to the kernel. The endocarp machine can effectively remove this layer of endocarp, making the chestnut kernel cleaner and providing high-quality raw materials for subsequent processing.
2. Cleaning equipment
Bubble cleaning machine: Use the impact force and stirring effect of bubbles to clean the impurities, dust and residual endocarp on the surface of the chestnut. The bubble cleaning machine has a good cleaning effect and will not damage the chestnuts. It can also save water and improve cleaning efficiency.
High-pressure spray cleaning machine: The water flow sprayed from the high-pressure nozzle is used to rinse the chestnuts in all directions to further remove stains and impurities on the surface. This cleaning machine can be used in conjunction with the bubble cleaning machine to achieve better cleaning effects.
3. Screening and grading equipment
Vibrating screen: According to the size, shape and weight of the chestnuts, the chestnuts are graded and screened through the screen of the vibrating screen for subsequent processing and packaging of different specifications. The vibrating screen has the advantages of high screening efficiency, high precision and simple operation.
Color sorter: Such as the WESORT color sorter, it can be used to remove discolored grains, moldy grains, cracks, deformed grains, diseased and insect-damaged grains and impurities in chestnuts to ensure the quality and appearance of chestnuts. The color sorter uses AI deep learning intelligent detection technology to quickly and accurately identify and remove chestnuts that do not meet the requirements, thereby improving the overall quality of chestnuts. WESORT Color Sorter In chestnut processing, WESORT Color Sorter can be called a magic weapon for quality assurance.
4. Steaming equipment
Cooking pot: used for steaming chestnuts to make them cooked and taste better. There are many types of cooking pots, such as steam cooking pots, electric heating cooking pots, etc., and you can choose the appropriate equipment according to the production scale and energy supply. The cooking pot usually has temperature and time control functions, which can ensure the stable cooking quality of chestnuts.
Continuous cooking tunnel: For large-scale chestnut processing enterprises, the continuous cooking tunnel is an efficient cooking equipment. It can realize the continuous feeding, cooking and discharging of chestnuts, greatly improve the production efficiency, and can ensure the consistency of the cooking effect.
5. Roasting equipment
Chestnut roasting machine: used to fry chestnuts with fragrance and unique taste. The roasting machine has a variety of heating methods, such as gas heating, electric heating, etc., which can be selected according to actual conditions. Roasting machines usually have automatic stirring and temperature control functions, which can ensure that chestnuts are evenly roasted and avoid burning.
Sugar-fried chestnut machine: Equipment specially used for making sugar-fried chestnuts. Sugar and other seasonings are added during the frying process to coat the surface of the chestnuts with a layer of sweet sugar coating, which increases the taste and flavor of the chestnuts. Sugar-fried chestnut machines generally have unique frying processes and temperature control systems, and can produce sugar-fried chestnut products that meet market demand.
6. packaging equipment
Quantitative packaging machine: According to different packaging specifications and weight requirements, the processed chestnuts are quantitatively packaged. The quantitative packaging machine can accurately control the packaging weight, improve packaging efficiency, and reduce the error and labor intensity of manual packaging.
Vacuum packaging machine: Vacuum packaging of chestnuts can extend the shelf life of chestnuts and prevent oxidation and deterioration. The vacuum packaging machine can effectively remove the air in the package, maintain the freshness and taste of the chestnuts, and is suitable for the packaging of various chestnut products.
Labeling machine: used to affix product labels on chestnut packaging, marking product information, production date, shelf life and other content to improve product recognition and traceability. The labeling machine can realize automatic labeling, improve packaging efficiency and label sticking accuracy.
7. Auxiliary equipment
Elevator: used to lift chestnuts from one production link to another, such as from the raw material warehouse to the cleaning equipment or processing equipment, to facilitate the transportation and transfer of materials and improve the continuity and efficiency of production.
Conveyor: including belt conveyors, screw conveyors and other types, used to transport chestnuts between different production equipment, realize the automatic flow of materials, reduce manual handling, reduce labor intensity and production costs.
Storage equipment: such as stainless steel storage tanks, warehouse shelves, etc., used to store raw chestnuts and processed finished chestnuts. Storage equipment should have good sealing and moisture-proof properties to ensure the quality and storage safety of chestnuts.
