To establish an instant noodle processing plant, it is necessary to first determine whether it is convenient to process fried instant noodles or to process non-fried instant noodles, and determine the daily processing quantity and output
Planning of instant noodle production plant
After years of continuous improvement, the instant noodle production line industry has basically matured. So what are the principles followed by this industry?
One is to control the scale and coordinate development. Strictly control blind investment and low-level redundant construction in instant noodle production line projects, resolutely curb excessive development momentum, and make its development compatible with domestic instant noodle production capacity.
Secondly, the layout is reasonable and the structure is optimized. Optimize the layout of instant noodle processing industry. The basic idea for the development of instant noodle production line industry should be to meet domestic market demand, strengthen necessary control over product exports, and avoid exacerbating domestic resource shortages.
The third is circular economy and comprehensive utilization. Adhere to the concept of circular economy, accelerate industrial restructuring, emphasize both scale and level, improve resource utilization level and efficiency, reduce pollutant emissions, and lower energy and material consumption per unit of product.
The main equipment and working principle of instant noodle production line
1、 Raw material preparation equipment
Flour screening machine: used for screening and cleaning flour to ensure the purity of raw materials.
Flour mixer: Mix flour with water, salt, and other additives evenly to prepare for the subsequent noodle formation.
2、 Noodle Forming Equipment
Noodle mixer: Knead the mixed dough to achieve suitable elasticity and extensibility.
Noodle forming machine: By squeezing and cutting, dough is made into slender noodles.
3、 Steaming and drying equipment
Steaming machine: Steaming and cooking the formed noodles to make them mature and increase their toughness.
Drying machine: using hot air drying to remove moisture from noodles, achieving a suitable moisture content for storage and transportation.
4、 Seasoning and packaging equipment
Seasoning machine: Mix the dried noodles with seasonings to ensure that each instant noodle has a uniform seasoning.
Packaging machine: Seal and package seasoned noodles to ensure product hygiene and freshness.
5、 Quality control equipment
Metal detector: detects whether the product contains metal impurities to ensure food safety.
Weight testing machine: Ensure that the weight of each instant noodle meets the standard.
6、 Automated control system
PLC control system: The entire production line is monitored and controlled through a programmable logic controller (PLC) to ensure the stability and efficiency of the production process.
7、 Environmental protection and energy-saving equipment
Thermal energy recovery system: recovers the thermal energy generated in the production line for heating and drying processes, reducing energy consumption.
Wastewater treatment system: Treat wastewater generated during the production process to reduce its impact on the environment.
The development of instant noodle production line equipment not only improves production efficiency, but also ensures the quality and safety of food. With the continuous advancement of technology, future instant noodle production lines will become more intelligent and automated, providing consumers with more diverse and healthier product choices.
What are the precautions in the production line of instant noodles
(1) Operators should be familiar with the linear performance and operational requirements of instant noodle production.
(2) Regularly maintain the production line. When abnormal noises, looseness, debris, vibration, etc. are found, the machine should be stopped for inspection and maintenance.
(3) Operators should wear personal protective equipment, fasten cuffs and hem of clothing, clean and tidy, without rope ends, and must wear work hats on their hair.
(4) Before driving, check if all electrical components are well insulated and if the motor grounding is reliable. It is strictly prohibited to press the switch button with wet hands. If there are any issues, please have an electrician handle them.
(5) Add flour according to regulations, don’t put too much. When making noodles, cover the box tightly and do not put your hands or other hard objects into the noodle bucket to avoid dangerous accidents.
(6) When taking out the noodles, the power must be cut off. After power off and mixing, tilt the casing before removing it. If it is not clean at once, please cut it off with a small knife before starting the car. Try not to take care of the equipment alone
What precautions should be taken before starting the instant noodle production line
（1） Installation
The installation work of the instant noodle production line is carried out step by step from simple to difficult. During the process, personnel should be patient and not act hastily. Especially after installation, do not put it into use immediately. It needs to be turned on for trial operation to ensure that there are no abnormalities before it can be officially used. Be careful not to let it run under high load for a long time, as this can easily shorten its lifespan.
(2) Trial operation
Before starting up, check whether all components are secure to prevent danger; During the test drive, check if there is any abnormal noise coming from the equipment bearings, which is a sign of malfunction; All parts of the machine should be normal. If there is any jamming or collision, it indicates that the quality of the instant noodle production line is not up to standard.
(3) Idle before starting
The idle time should not be too long, usually around 15 minutes, as it can cause damage to the instant noodle production line; When idling, the running time is too short to effectively detect faults; Before starting up, check first and then idle to reduce the danger caused by malfunctions
