Apple, pineapple, pomegranate and passion fruit present different extraction boundaries. Verify offered capability with representative trials.
| Feed family | Separation question | Initial duty to compare | Continue |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apple | Firm pome fruit · mash drainage matters | Prepared mash → pressing → controlled finishing | Apple route → |
| Pineapple | Peel boundary · fibrous pulp | Fruit-specific preparation/extraction → pulp finishing | Pineapple route → |
| Pomegranate | Aril separation · unwanted rind contact | Defined aril/rind separation → reviewed extraction → finishing | Pomegranate route → |
| Passion fruit | Rind separation · seed-bearing pulp | Fruit opening/separation → specialist extraction → controlled finishing | Passion fruit route → |
| Extracted juice / concentrate | Whole-fruit separation already done | Incoming specification → liquid handling → product/pack process | Select a liquid-feed route → |
Firm pome fruit · mash drainage matters
Prepared mash → pressing → controlled finishing
Sorting and washing precede controlled mash preparation. Compare an appropriate press arrangement using the actual variety, maturity and storage condition. Mash preparation and press settings interact, so specify them together in the trial.
Peel boundary · fibrous pulp
Fruit-specific preparation/extraction → pulp finishing
Whole-fruit specialist extraction and processing prepared edible flesh are different arrangements. State fruit size and preparation responsibility, and evaluate unwanted peel contact and separation quality in the proposed method.
Aril separation · unwanted rind contact
Defined aril/rind separation → reviewed extraction → finishing
State whether the feed is whole fruit or prepared arils. The offered process should identify where rind is separated and how seeds are handled. Do not send the entire fruit through a generic crusher by default.
Rind separation · seed-bearing pulp
Fruit opening/separation → specialist extraction → controlled finishing
The feed contains a rind and a seed-bearing interior. Define opening and extraction so the wanted juice/pulp is recovered while unwanted material is controlled. Complete seed crushing is not assumed acceptable.
