01 / INTAKEFruit receiving & washing
Remove incoming dirt while controlling handling damage before cutting exposes the fruit.

From whole guava to a specified pulp stream
Explore washing, sorting, preparation, seed separation, finishing, transfer, treatment and packaging as linked equipment duties.
Preparation follows the actual fruit
Record the incoming lot and remove unsuitable fruit before preparation. Cutting or conditioning is selected for the pulper feed and actual fruit condition; do not add aggressive crushing simply because another fruit line uses it.
Keep side streams in the process map
Include sorting rejects, primary seeds/skin and finisher residues in the layout. Their collection and sampling should not cross exposed pulp or become a hidden source of line stoppages.
Close the product boundary
After separation, the line branches towards pulp/puree handling or an explicitly formulated beverage base. Treatment and packaging follow the final product definition and validated preservation method.

02 / SELECTIONInspection & sorting conveyor
Remove damaged or unsuitable fruit before it contributes off-flavour or variable processing load.

03 / PREPARATIONControlled fruit opening
Prepare a consistent feed for the selected pulper without assuming that aggressive crushing is suitable for hard guava seeds.

04 / OPTIONALConditional softening / feed conditioning
Assess whether fruit preparation or temperature conditioning improves separation for the specific guava lot.

07 / SIDE STREAMSeed & skin residue handling
Keep retained seeds, skin and fibre visible, measurable and separate from the clean pulp route.

08 / TRANSFERViscous guava pulp transfer
Move the actual pulp while respecting its measured flow behaviour and remaining particle content.

09 / STABILITYBuffering & optional deaeration
Separate short-term flow fluctuations from downstream treatment and assess entrained air where it affects the product.
