Working Principle
The transportation and filling of tomato concentrate are achieved by relying on a rotary pump. Inside the rotary pump, there is a pair of rotors that rotate synchronously in opposite directions. During the rotation process, the liquid is sucked in and discharged by relying on the volume change of the closed chamber formed between the rotors and the pump body. When the motor drives the rotors to rotate, the liquid is sucked into the pump chamber and then, under pressure, is filled into the container through the filling head.
Structural Composition
Rotary Pump: It is the core component, responsible for extracting and transporting the liquid. Its unique rotor structure enables it to handle tomato concentrates of various viscosities and has good self - priming ability.
Filling Head: It accurately injects the tomato concentrate into the container. Its design can be adjusted according to the shapes and sizes of different containers, and some filling heads also have an anti - drip function.
Control System: Through a pre - set program, it controls parameters such as filling volume, filling speed, and filling time. At the same time, it monitors the operating status of the equipment and alarms and stops the machine in a timely manner when a fault occurs.
Conveyor System: It consists of a conveyor belt and a positioning device, etc. The conveyor belt is responsible for transporting empty containers to the filling position and transporting the filled containers to the next process. The positioning device ensures that the containers can be accurately aligned with the filling head during the filling process.
Storage Tank: It is used to store the tomato concentrate to be filled. Usually, it is equipped with a stirring device to prevent the concentrate from sedimentation or stratification and ensure its uniformity.
Product Characteristics
High - precision Filling: With the help of an excellent metering system and control system, it can accurately control the filling volume. The filling error can be controlled within a small range, ensuring that the amount of tomato concentrate in each bottle is consistent.
Strong Adaptability: It is suitable for tomato concentrates of various viscosities. Whether it is a low - viscosity or high - viscosity concentrate, it can perform good filling. At the same time, it can adapt to different shapes and sizes of containers, such as glass bottles, plastic bottles, metal cans, etc.
High Degree of Automation: It can automatically complete a series of processes from the transportation and positioning of empty containers, the filling of tomato concentrate, to capping, reducing manual operations, improving production efficiency and product quality stability, and reducing labor costs and human errors.
Hygiene and Safety: The components in contact with the tomato concentrate are all made of food - grade stainless steel and other corrosion - resistant and non - toxic materials, meeting food hygiene and safety standards. Some are also equipped with a CIP cleaning system, which can automatically clean and disinfect the interior of the equipment to prevent the growth of bacteria and material residues.
Easy Maintenance: It adopts a modular design, with a reasonable layout of each component. When a certain component fails, maintenance personnel can easily repair and replace it. Moreover, the daily cleaning and maintenance of the equipment are relatively easy, reducing the equipment maintenance cost.
Application Scenarios
Food Processing Enterprises: Large - scale tomato sauce and tomato juice production enterprises can use the fully automatic rotary pump tomato concentrate filling machine to achieve efficient and accurate filling production, meeting the large - scale market demand for products.
Condiment Production Enterprises: Tomato concentrate can be used as a raw material for condiments, such as tomato ketchup, tomato sauce, etc. The filling machine can fill the concentrate into different - sized packages, facilitating subsequent processing and sales.
