From Fresh Tomato to Concentrate – Full Processing Line for Tomato Paste & Sauce
This complete tomato processing line is designed for high-efficiency production of tomato paste, ketchup, and tomato sauce. It integrates washing, sorting, crushing, preheating, refining, evaporation, sterilization, and aseptic filling into one continuous flow.
The tomato paste production line supports hot break and cold break processes, with adjustable concentration from 12 to 38 Brix. For tomato sauce and ketchup, the system includes blending tanks, seasoning mixers, and high-shear homogenizers to ensure smooth texture and stable viscosity.
Key equipment includes a multi-stage evaporator for energy saving, a tubular sterilizer for safety, and a fully automated CIP system for fast cleaning. The tomato sauce processing machine module allows easy switch between chunky salsa and smooth ketchup.
Capacity ranges from 5 to 50 tons per hour, suitable for small factories or large industrial plants. All contact parts are made of SUS304 or SUS316L stainless steel, meeting international food safety standards.
Export-ready, with installation drawings, operation manuals, and online technical support available.

This state-of-the-art tomato paste processing line integrates multiple operations, focusing on the complete tomato processing journey from initial raw material treatment to final product packaging. As a versatile production system, this line efficiently manufactures various tomato-derived products including tomato paste, tomato sauce, and tomato juice, spanning all essential processing stages.
Raw Material Preparation
The system includes comprehensive screening and cleaning components, where a vibrating screen eliminates flawed tomatoes and impurities while a high-pressure bubble cleaning machine with brush rollers thoroughly cleanses surfaces by removing mud, pesticide residues, and unwanted particles. Flexible conveying mechanisms prevent damage to tomato skins, establishing a pristine base for processing.
Crushing and Pulping
Following pretreatment, tomatoes are processed through a spiral crusher in low-temperature settings to retain nutrients and flavor. A double-stage pulping machine separates tomato pulp from peel and seeds, with the first stage eliminating larger impurities and the second stage providing fine pulping for desired consistency.
Concentration and Sterilization
Tomato pulp undergoes concentration in a vacuum concentration tank where excess water is extracted in a low-temperature vacuum environment (60-70°C). Solid content is concentrated between 10% to 30% as per specifications, preserving lycopene and essential nutrients. Concentrated pulp proceeds to tubular sterilizer using rapid high-temperature sterilization (121°C instant sterilization) to eradicate microorganisms while preventing flavor degradation.
Final Product Packaging
Sterilized tomato products are meticulously dispensed into packaging containers through an aseptic filling system maintaining an aseptic environment to prevent secondary contamination. Capping, sealing, labeling, coding, and boxing complete the packaging process, with some lines incorporating metal detection and weight detection systems to eliminate substandard products.
