Automatic Multi Function Chili Sauce Production Machine Chili Sauce Production Line

Chili peppers, as a widely popular condiment, have a huge consumer market worldwide with their unique spicy and fragrant flavor. However, fresh chili peppers are perishable food. After being picked, they are very likely to rot and deteriorate due to their high moisture content, and both transportation and storage face considerable challenges. Therefore, processing fresh chili peppers into chili sauce can not only effectively extend the shelf life but also increase the added value of the product, meeting the diverse market demands.

Chili sauce not only retains the flavor of chili peppers but also forms various flavors through seasoning and processing (such as garlic chili sauce), making it an important condiment in the catering industry and home kitchens. The production of chili sauce through standardized and automated production lines not only enhances the hygiene, safety and consistency of the products, but also significantly improves production efficiency and market competitiveness.

The main processing flow of chili sauce:

The processing flow of chili sauce varies slightly depending on the product type, but the basic techniques are roughly the same, mainly including the following steps:

1. Raw material selection and cleaning: Choose fresh, mold-free, and disease-free peppers as raw materials. After screening, the surface dirt, impurities and pesticide residues are thoroughly removed using cleaning equipment.

2. Stem removal and chopping: After washing, the peppers are processed by an automatic stem remover to remove the stems. Then, they are initially crushed into a paste or granular form through a chopping device, which is convenient for subsequent blending and steaming.

3. Preparation and pre-cooking: Mix the chopped chili peppers with oil, salt, sugar, garlic, ginger, broad bean paste and other ingredients according to the recipe, and then put them into the pre-cooking pot for initial treatments such as heating sterilization, deodorization and aroma enhancement.

4. Fine grinding and emulsification: After pre-cooking, the chili sauce is finely ground through equipment such as colloid mills to enhance the fineness and uniformity of the sauce. Additionally, emulsifiers can be added as required for stabilization treatment.

5. High-temperature steaming: After fine grinding, the chili sauce is placed in a double-layer pot or vacuum steaming pot for high-temperature steaming to further sterilize and enhance the flavor, ensuring product safety and long-term storage.

6. Filling and Sealing: After maturation, the chili sauce is filled into glass bottles, plastic bottles or bagged containers in a sterile environment by an automatic filling machine, and then sealed and packaged with a capping machine or a sealing machine.

7. Sterilization and Cooling: After packaging, the chili sauce products need to undergo secondary high-temperature sterilization treatment in a sterilizer to ensure a sterile state inside the bottle. Then, they are rapidly cooled down through a cooling system to prevent the sauce from discoloring or changing flavor.

8. Labeling and Boxing: After cooling, the products are labeled with brand labels by the labeling machine, automatically packed into boxes, and then placed in the finished product warehouse to await shipment.

Equipment for processing chili sauce:

In order to achieve efficient and standardized production of chili sauce, a complete set of professional processing equipment needs to be equipped, mainly including:

1. Chili washing machine: It is used for multi-stage bubble cleaning of raw materials to thoroughly remove dirt and impurities from the surface of chili peppers.

2. Stem remover/chopper: After removing the stems from the chili peppers, a high-speed chopper is used for pre-treatment by crushing the peppers.

3. Pre-cooking pot/steaming double-layer pot: It is used for seasoning and initial steaming of chili sauce ingredients to enhance the taste.

4. Colloid mill/emulsifier: It achieves fine grinding and emulsification of chili sauce, enhancing the fineness and stability of the sauce.

5. Vacuum concentration pot/wok: It is used for high-temperature stir-frying of chili sauce, enhancing the aroma and regulating the moisture content.

6. Filling machine

It automatically completes the quantitative filling of sauce and is suitable for different bottle types and packaging forms.

7. Capping machine/sealing machine

Achieve product sealing to prevent external contamination.

8. Sterilizer (pasteurization or high-temperature and high-pressure sterilization)

Terminal sterilization is carried out on the products after filling to ensure food safety.

9. Labeling machine and packing line

Realize the identification of product outer packaging and logistics preparation.

Features of the chili sauce production line:

High degree of automation: The entire production line, from cleaning to packaging, can be fully automated, reducing manual operations and improving production efficiency.

Customizable process: According to the process requirements of different types of chili sauces (such as garlic sauce, spicy sauce, etc.), the combination of process equipment can be flexibly adjusted to achieve diversified product production.

Food-grade stainless steel material: All parts in contact with materials are made of 304 or 316 stainless steel, meeting food safety standards, corrosion-resistant and easy to clean.

Energy conservation and environmental protection design: The equipment is equipped with an efficient heating system and waste gas treatment device, which saves energy and reduces environmental pollution at the same time.

Intelligent control system: It adopts PLC control system + touch screen operation, supporting adjustable multiple parameters such as temperature, time and speed, which is convenient for operators to monitor and manage data in real time.

Convenient maintenance and stable operation: The modular design makes the disassembly, assembly and maintenance of the equipment more convenient, suitable for the production needs of different scales from small and medium-sized enterprises to large-scale factories.

Precautions during the production process of chili sauce:

During the processing of chili sauce, although automated equipment can effectively ensure production efficiency and product quality, the following aspects still need to be noted to ensure food safety and product stability:

Raw material quality control: Strictly screen chili raw materials, reject moldy and rotten chili peppers, and prevent harmful substances such as aflatoxin from entering the production chain.

Equipment hygiene and cleanliness: After each batch of production, the equipment should be thoroughly cleaned to prevent the growth of miscellaneous bacteria. Special attention should be paid to details such as colloid mills and filling heads.

Temperature and time control: During the steaming and sterilization processes, the temperature and time should be strictly controlled to ensure the sterilization effect while preventing problems such as oil separation and discoloration in the sauce caused by high temperatures.

Filling environment control: Filling should be carried out in a clean environment. If necessary, a sterile operation room or purification device should be provided to prevent microbial contamination in the air.

Packaging sealing performance testing: Ensure that the filling containers are sealed without leakage to prevent oxidation, oil leakage or deterioration of the products during storage and transportation.

Storage and transportation conditions: The finished chili sauce should be stored in a cool and dry place, avoiding direct sunlight. High temperature and high humidity environments are prone to cause quality changes.
