Technical knowledge and production process of packing nuts and dried fruits
Machines for preparing and packing nuts and nuts can be made in the country with the desired quality. Equipments according to the required production capacity include bowl lifting devices, pre-shovel, quality control conveyor, hand-held tank dehumidifier, peeler, lifter, screw device, dryer, flavoring and roasting Continuus, salt shaker, heater system And salting and filtering and packing machines for double and quadruple straps, end conveyor and shearing pack machine which are processed and packed nuts and dried fruits in different stages according to the following steps.
-
Supply of raw materials
Preparation and purchase of fruits with the required quality for the production of nuts and dried fruits, according to the harvest season and the possibility of storage in the depot factory, and after the pre-threshing process, it is ready to be transported to the peeling unit.
-
Peeling stage
The fruit is transferred to a mechanized peeling unit in proportion to the capacity of the system to become the brain. The level of technology of the device is very important in obtaining a quality and uniform product in the peeling process for the brains by observing the principles of hygiene.
-
Washing and moistening the nuts
Along with the peeled product, there are other unwanted particles along with the fruit that reduce the quality of the final product, so it is necessary to wash the kernels after peeling and to clean them from any contamination with foreign and undesirable particles.
-
The process of drying nuts
The process of drying the nuts is done after washing in a hygienic and mechanized manner with appropriate quality and observing the dried standards.
-
Product processing process

These processes often involve flavoring according to the formulation and customer-friendly experience, combining several types of brains. Roasting and roasting of nut kernels takes place in this section. The most suitable roasting process in order to keep the nuts healthy due to heating using drying systems has the possibility of uniform heat distribution.
-
Product quality control
It is essential to ensure the quality of the final product before the packaging process. Quality control is performed through standard tests to check the appearance of color, shape, size, moisture content, mold, fracture rate, hollow, impurity content, taste, odor, immaturity and shrinkage percentage of the product salt. In order to be able to send quality nuts to the packing department.
-

Paying attention to the quality and beauty of packaging is very important in gaining inpatient market share.
-
Market research and competitors
Due to the advantage of conversion industries in the agricultural sector of the country, by the end of 1398, there are 793 industrial production units for the preparation and packaging of nuts and dried fruits in the country with a nominal capacity of 929 thousand tons. The number of projects under construction in the country with a physical progress of over 60% is 195 projects, which are expected to create a new capacity of 308 thousand tons.
-
Investment required
According to studies, the construction of production this year requires about 34 billion rials of fixed capital. The internal rate of return on investment is more than 35% and you will have a return on investment within three and a half years after production.
