Easyreal supplies an industrial tomato ketchup production line and tomato sauce production line. This is a sauce line for factories. It uses concentrated tomato paste (typically 36–38brix%) as the base.
This line does not start from fresh tomato. It is not a fresh tomato processing line. It is built for recipe mixing, texture control, pasteurization, and packaging. You get a high quality final product with stable taste, steady viscosity, and long shelf life.
This line fits:
- Industrial plants and small scale workshops
- Ketchup, tomato sauce, and seasoning sauces
- Sachets, bottles, cans, and spout pouches
Product Range:
With the right settings, the line can make:
- Ketchup
- Tomato sauce
- Seasoning sauces
* If your recipe has spices or small particles, we adjust homogenization and pasteurization. This helps keep texture. It also keeps the final product stable and safe.
Line Options (Semi Auto or Full Auto)
Choose the level of automation you need.
Semi automatic tomato sauce line
Lower investment, flexible work
Full automatic line
Less labor, stable output, better quality control
Raw Materials
This tomato sauce production line works with raw materials based on concentrated tomato paste. You dilute the paste and mix it with sugar, salt, vinegar, and spices.
What changes the final product:
- Paste solids level
- Water quality and temperature
- Dosing accuracy for sugar, salt, and spices
Key Equipment in Ketchup Processing
High Shear Dissolving System
(High speed mixing tank)
This tank dissolves sugar and mixes powders fast. It helps stop lumps. It shortens the ketchup production process. It also improves stable tomato ketchup processing.
Blending and Standardization
(Agitator tank)
The agitator tank blends the batch until it is even. It helps you control Brix, pH, and viscosity. This improves tomato sauce and ketchup consistency.
Homogenization and Deaeration
(High pressure homogenizer, Vacuum deaerator)
A high pressure homogenizer makes the sauce smoother. A vacuum deaerator removes air. This helps filling. It also improves shelf life.
Pasteurization
(Tube pasteurizer, Plate pasteurizer)
Pasteurization keeps sauces safe. We offer a tube pasteurizer and a plate pasteurizer.
- Tube: thicker sauces or sauces with spices/particles
- Plate: smoother sauces with lower viscosity
Quality Control & Hygiene
Quality Control Points
Good quality control keeps each batch the same. Check a few items:
- Brix: ketchup often targets 12–14brix%
- pH
- Viscosity
- Heating temperature and holding time
- Deaeration effect
- Filling stability
Hygienic Design and CIP
Ketchup is sticky. Cleaning is important.
- Sanitary pipes and clean tanks
- CIP-ready design for repeat cleaning
- Faster changeover between recipes
This helps taste stability and line uptime.
Filling & Packaging Solutions
Packaging matters. It affects cost and speed. This processing line supports several formats.
Sachet/Pouch Packing
(Tomato ketchup sachet packing machine)
A tomato ketchup sachet packing machine supports 3-side seal and 4-side seal packs. It fits food-service and retail.
You can pair it with a ketchup filling machine based on sachet type and viscosity.
Bottle/Can & Spout Pouch
Bottle/Can Filling
We support glass bottle filling with capping and tin can seaming. These formats fit retail and food-service channels.
Spout Pouch Filling (Doypack filler)
The doypack filler fills and caps in one system. It improves shelf look. It can cut transport cost.
Recipe & Process Support
We help you start faster. We provide simple process guidance.
- Ketchup Brix 12–14% (reference range)
- Mixing order and time
- Heating curve
- Deaeration timing
- Packaging choice
We also support other products. Examples include tomato cooking sauce and chili sauce.
⚠ Not a Fresh Tomato Processing Plant
This page covers sauce making from concentrated tomato paste. Most ketchup factories use this method.
If you need paste made from fresh tomato, use a tomato processing line. It often includes a tomato washing machine, sorting, extraction, and sometimes a pulping machine.
