Rotary Retort

It is especially suitable for the specific gravity of solid in the package is larger than liquid, and the viscous canned food with different concentrations can be rotated during the sterilization process to achieve the purpose of not stratifying or precipitation during the shelf life, such as Congee, tinplate cans, plastic cans, products prone to precipitation in flexible packaging, etc. The steam enters directly, the heating time is shorten, and the steam and sterilization time are saved.

Overview

A Rotary Retort is a specialized piece of equipment used for the thermal processing of food products in sealed containers. It is commonly employed in the food processing industry for the sterilization and preservation of various types of canned or bottled foods. The rotary retort facilitates uniform heat distribution, ensuring that the food products are heated evenly and thoroughly. This process helps to eliminate harmful microorganisms, extending the shelf life of the packaged foods while maintaining their quality and safety.

The rotary retort operates by loading sealed containers filled with food products into the rotating drum or vessel. Once sealed, the drum rotates, allowing the containers to circulate continuously within the retort. During processing, steam or hot water is injected into the retort to raise the temperature and initiate the sterilization process. The rotation of the drum ensures that the heat is evenly distributed, effectively sterilizing the contents of the containers. After processing, the containers are cooled before being unloaded for storage or distribution.

Advantage

Even Heating
The rotary retort is designed with rotation to evenly distribute the heating medium on the surface of the food, achieving uniform heating and sterilization.
Efficient Sterilization
The rotary retort can complete the sterilization process of a large quantity of food in a short period, thus improving production efficiency.
Suitable for Various Products
It is capable of sterilizing various types of food, including canned, bagged, and bottled food items.
Reliable and Stable Operation
With superior performance, it can operate reliably and stably for extended periods with low failure rates, ensuring food quality.
