Suitable raw materials
Apple, pear, grape, citrus, pineapple, watermelon, berry and carrot juice routes can be considered according to product target.
3 TPH juice capacity planning
3 TPH Fruit Juice Processing Line for Clear, Cloudy and NFC Juice
A 3 TPH fruit juice processing line is often discussed for industrial juice projects that need a stable extraction, pasteurization and filling route without oversized plant complexity.
Capacity fit
3 TPH Fruit Juice Processing Line Capacity Planning
This capacity fits fruit juice plants where pressing or extraction, deaeration, pasteurization and packaging must run as a coordinated line.
Shift and operating rhythm
Shift planning should match raw fruit arrival, pressing capacity, buffer tanks and filler speed.
Factory boundary
The line can include washing, crushing or extraction, juice separation, deaeration, heat treatment, filling and CIP.

Capacity, Area and Utility Checklist
| Item | Reference Only Planning Question | Engineering Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Hourly intake | Reference only: 3 tons raw material per hour before juice yield and pomace loss. | Defines washer width, crusher or pulper size, tanks and filling speed. |
| Factory area | Layout should include raw material front end, extraction, tanks, heat treatment, packaging and utilities. | Affects equipment layout, operator aisles, drainage and packaging movement. |
| Steam | Confirm pressure, boiler capacity and peak demand. | Sterilization, evaporation, hot water and CIP can all require steam. |
| Power | Confirm voltage, phase, frequency and installed power limit. | Motors, pumps, controls, refrigeration and utilities need electrical planning. |
| Cooling water | Confirm tower water, chilled water or process water availability. | Cooling controls product temperature, filling conditions and heat exchanger balance. |
| Labor | Operators are needed for receiving, inspection, equipment monitoring, filling and cleaning. | Manual sorting, trimming, packaging and cleaning affect practical throughput. |
| Packaging | Bottle, pouch, carton, hot-fill or aseptic bulk formats can be discussed. | Bottle, pouch, can, jar and aseptic drum require different filler and line length. |
Equipment scope
Typical Equipment for 3 TPH Fruit Juice Processing Line
Extraction section
Belt press, citrus extractor or other juice extraction machine is selected by fruit structure.
Deaeration and sterilization
Oxygen and heat treatment control flavor, foam and shelf life.
Packaging section
Filler choice should match shelf life, container and production rhythm.

FAQ
Capacity FAQ
Is this capacity a final specification?
No. Capacity pages are reference-only planning pages. Final sizing must be confirmed from raw material form, target product, shift hours, packaging and utilities.
What is the best way to express capacity?
Use fresh raw material intake per hour or per day, and also state the expected final product. A 3 TPH fruit juice line and a 3 TPH puree line can require different equipment.
Can the same capacity line run multiple fruits?
Sometimes, but only if the preparation, pulping, heating and cleaning requirements are compatible. State the priority product first and list future products separately.
What data affects the final layout?
Building length, width, floor drain position, ceiling height, raw material receiving direction, packaging area, utilities and operator access all affect the layout.
