On 26 February 2026, Taizy shipped a fully customized mango pineapple washing line to a fruit export company in Ghana. The line is designed to process up to 2 tonnes of fresh mango and pineapple per hour, covering cleaning, surface drying, waxing, grading, and packing. Every machine in the layout was built in full 304 stainless steel and tuned to the customer’s exact fruit sizes, box weights, and export standards.
Customer Background and Processing Needs
The client operates a fresh produce packing house in Ghana. Their business supplies mangoes and pineapples to retail chains and export markets, where buyers expect clean skin, consistent fruit size, and shelf-ready presentation. Before this project, most of the work was done manually or with small, standalone equipment. That created three recurring problems:
- Inconsistent cleaning quality, especially for soil and latex stains on pineapples
- Slow manual sorting that could not keep up with peak harvest volumes
- No controlled waxing and drying step, which shortened shelf life during sea freight
They needed a complete fruit processing line that could handle both crops on the same equipment, switch easily between mango and pineapple, and meet food-grade export requirements.
Complete Line Configuration
The solution is a continuous fruit grading and packing line with the following flow:
- Bubble washing machine with ozone and heating
- Parallel roller cleaning machine with ozone and heating
- Roller air dryer with drip tray
- Picking belt with overhead lighting
- Waxing and drying machine
- Single-head pineapple top cutter
- Weight sorting machine with elevator
- Roller conveyor
- Packing stations with custom boxes
This sequence lets fruit move smoothly from raw intake to sorted, waxed, and boxed output without repeated handling.
Key Equipment Specifications of Mango Pineapple Washing Line
Bubble Washing Machine — TZ-5000
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | TZ-5000 |
| Dimensions | 5000 × 1480 × 1350 mm |
| Transmission power | 1.1 kW |
| Water pump power | 1.5 kW |
| Air pump power | 1.5 kW |
| Mesh belt width | 800 mm |
| Heating power | 60 kW (up to 50 °C) |
| Function | Ozone + heating |
| Material | 304 stainless steel |
The bubble washer is the first cleaning stage. Warm, ozone-treated water loosens soil and reduces microbial load on the fruit surface without bruising.
Parallel Roller Cleaning Machine — TZ-2000
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | TZ-2000 |
| Dimensions | 2000 × 1250 × 1400 mm |
| Transmission power | 1.1 kW |
| Water pump power | 1.1 kW |
| Brush roller length | 600 mm |
| Side plate thickness | 2.5 mm |
| Heating power | 15 kW |
| Function | Ozone + heating |
| Material | 304 stainless steel |
This commercial fruit washing machine uses rotating brush rollers and high-pressure spray to remove stubborn dirt and pineapple latex. The 2.5 mm thick side plates give the frame extra rigidity for continuous operation.
Roller Air Dryer
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Type | Roller air dryer |
| Effective length | 7 m |
| Fan quantity | 14 |
| Fan power | 0.75 kW each |
| Material | 304 stainless steel |
| Options | With drip tray |
After washing, fruit passes over the roller dryer. Fourteen fans blow off surface water quickly, while the drip tray collects runoff to keep the floor dry.
Waxing + Drying Machine — TZ-400
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | TZ-400 |
| Total length | 4000 mm (waxing 2.5 m, drying 1.5 m) |
| Dimensions | 4000 × 1250 × 1350 mm |
| Transmission power | 1.5 kW |
| Roller width | 800 mm |
| Waxing heating power | 12 kW |
| Drying heating power | 30 kW |
| Drying fans | 4 × 0.55 kW |
| Waxing pump power | 1.1 kW |
| Material | 304 stainless steel |
The waxing section applies a thin food-grade coating to reduce moisture loss. The 1.5 m drying section then sets the wax with heated air and four dedicated fans.
Single-Head Pineapple Top Cutter — TZ-1
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | TZ-1 |
| Power | 3.75 kW |
| Voltage | 380 V / 50 Hz / 3-phase |
| Capacity | 3000 pieces per hour |
| Dimensions | 3000 × 800 × 1500 mm |
| Weight | 350 kg |
This unit removes pineapple crowns cleanly at high speed and is height-matched to the bubble washer outlet. It was supplied without a distribution feeder to fit the customer’s existing infeed setup.
Weight Sorting Machine with Elevator — TZ-1000J
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | TZ-1000J |
| Total length | 7.5 m |
| Weighing range | 5 g – 3000 g |
| Resolution | 0.1 g |
| Sorting stages | 4 |
| Sorting speed | 200 – 220 cycles/minute |
| Sorting accuracy | ±5 g at 200 cycles/minute |
| Rejection method | Electric continuous rejection |
| Waterproof rating | IP65 |
| Dimensions | 7500 × 1100 × 1400 mm |
| Voltage | 380 V / 50 Hz |
The grader was extended to 7.5 m to give more space for four accurate drop lanes. It handles both mango and pineapple in the same run.
Custom Grading and Packing Program
The customer requested four fixed weight grades for each fruit:
Mango grades
- 750 – 900 g
- 630 – 750 g
- 520 – 630 g
- 475 – 480 g
Pineapple grades
- 800 – 950 g
- 1000 – 1100 g
- 1101 – 1300 g
- 1300 g and above
For export packaging, two box sizes were specified:
| Box type | Internal size | Packed weight | Material |
|---|---|---|---|
| Box 1 | 600 × 400 × 132 mm | 10 – 12 kg | Plastic or cardboard |
| Box 2 | Custom | 4 – 6 kg | Plastic ≈ 0.5 kg, paper ≈ 0.8 kg |
Why Does This Mango Pineapple Washing Line Work?
This fruit processing line solves the customer’s main operational problems in a single layout:
- Dual crop flexibility: The same washing, drying, and grading equipment handles both mangoes and pineapples. Operators only change the sorting program and box type.
- Better shelf life: Ozone washing plus controlled waxing reduces decay and preserves appearance during long transit.
- Export-grade hygiene: Full 304 stainless steel construction, IP65-rated grader, and food-safe contact surfaces meet international buyer standards.
- Labor savings: The weight sorter replaces manual grading, and the pineapple top cutter runs at 3000 pieces per hour.
- Clean working floor: Drip trays under the dryer and controlled water drainage keep the packing area safer and easier to maintain.
