The Apple Canning Production Line is a fully automatic system designed for industrial-scale production of apple-based canned products, including apple slices, diced apple, apple puree, and syrup-filled fruit cans.
This line integrates the entire process — sorting, washing, peeling, coring, cutting, blanching, filling, vacuum sealing, sterilizing, cooling, labeling, and packaging — ensuring high efficiency, excellent product appearance, and compliance with HACCP, ISO22000, and FDA standards.
The equipment adopts PLC intelligent control, with a modular design that supports flexible customization for different can sizes, product formulations, and output capacities (from 500 kg/h to 10 tons/h). It is ideal for fruit canning plants, juice processors, and food manufacturers targeting domestic and export markets.
