Honey Processing Equipment

🌿 1. Introduction

The Commercial Honey Processing Equipment is designed for industrial-scale honey extraction, filtration, pasteurization, and packaging, providing a complete solution for honey processors. It ensures high yield, purity, stable quality, and extended shelf life while maintaining honey’s natural flavor and nutrients.

This equipment is suitable for:

• Honey processing factories

• Food and beverage manufacturers using honey as ingredient

• Export-oriented honey producers

• Central kitchens and functional food producers

By adopting an automated honey processing line, manufacturers can increase efficiency, reduce labor, and ensure product consistency.

⚙️ 2. Working Principle

1. Honey Extraction 🍯

   • Honey is extracted from honeycombs using mechanical honey extractors (centrifugal or hydraulic).

   • Comb debris and wax are separated during extraction.

2. Filtering & Clarification 🧹

   • Honey passes through multi-stage filters to remove impurities, wax particles, pollen, and bee residues.

   • Optional fine mesh or vacuum filtration ensures crystal-free, clear honey.

3. Pasteurization & Decrystallization 🔥

   • Honey is heated to 60–70°C to prevent fermentation and improve fluidity.

   • Controlled heating preserves natural enzymes and nutrients.

4. Cooling & Storage ❄️

   • Pasteurized honey is cooled gradually to room temperature.

   • Stored in stainless steel tanks with agitators to prevent sedimentation.

5. Filling & Packaging 📦

   • Honey is automatically filled into jars, bottles, or sachets.

   • Sealing, labeling, and batch coding ensure traceability and hygiene.
