🌿 1. Introduction
The Jam Making Equipment is a fully integrated system designed for producing high-quality fruit jams, preserves, and spreads at commercial or industrial scale. It automates fruit washing, pulping, cooking, homogenization, filling, and packaging, ensuring consistent flavor, texture, and shelf life.
This equipment is ideal for:
Fruit processing factories
Jam and spread manufacturers
Central kitchens and food service operations
Export-oriented food production facilities
By investing in a complete jam production line, manufacturers can increase output, improve product consistency, and meet growing market demand.
⚙️ 2. Working Principle
Fruit Preparation & Washing 🍑
Fresh fruits (berries, apples, peaches, etc.) are sorted and washed.
Removes dirt, stems, leaves, and damaged pieces.
Pulping & Crushing 🍓
Fruit is crushed into pulp using pulpers or fruit mills.
Seeds, peels, and cores are removed if necessary.
Cooking & Mixing 🔥
Fruit pulp is cooked with sugar, pectin, and optional additives.
Homogenizer ensures smooth texture and prevents lump formation.
Temperature and cooking time are precisely controlled to preserve flavor and color.
Cooling & Filling ❄️
Cooked jam is cooled to suitable temperature.
Automatically filled into jars, bottles, or pouches with precise volume control.
Sealing & Packaging 📦
Containers are sealed hermetically to extend shelf life.
Labels and batch codes applied automatically for traceability.
✅ Advantages of this workflow:
Consistent jam texture and flavor
Reduced manual handling
High efficiency and continuous production
Flexible recipe adjustment for different fruit types
