In recent years, the scale of China's food manufacturing industry has been continuously expanding. In 2019, the revenue of the national food industry reached over 80000 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.2%. The market determines resource allocation, which is a general law of market economy. The rapid development of the food industry has forced the food industry to enter the industrial production field from handicrafts, driving the continuous innovation and development of food machinery. The application rate is constantly increasing, and the food machinery manufacturing industry is also expanding. According to statistics, there are currently 7000 food processing enterprises in China.
But with the improvement of consumption level, it has changed from being full before to eating well now. However, regardless, hygiene and safety have always been highly valued. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and many provinces are carrying out special food safety rectification actions to safeguard consumers' food safety. Food safety is an important factor in ensuring social stability. According to statistics, nearly one tenth (550 million) of people worldwide suffer from foodborne diseases every year.
With the implementation of the "Clean Vegetable Listing" policy, central kitchens have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and clean vegetable processing and food machinery have been pushed to the forefront. Obviously, the prevention and control of foodborne diseases in the food industry cannot be ignored. The food machinery manufacturing industry, as a component of the food industry, also plays an important role in the prevention and control of food safety issues.
In the food machinery industry, in addition to the operational performance of equipment, the quality issues of equipment cannot be ignored. When developing machines, Shanghai Taiyi Factory always prioritizes the safety needs of food production to avoid safety and hygiene issues during production.
First of all, in terms of the most direct impact, the selection of raw materials is very meticulous. The first thing that food needs to come into contact with is the surface of the raw materials, so the material of the equipment must choose food grade stainless steel with a smooth surface, which is not easy to corrode, and is easy to clean. The commonly used materials in the market are 304 and 316 stainless steel, and the main one used in food machinery is 304 stainless steel, which meets national standards. All equipment in Shanghai Taiyi uses this type of steel.
In addition, when designing the structure, easy cleaning is the most important indicator, and the detachable machine is more easily recognized by the market and industry. This type of machine has no sanitary blind spots and can avoid the accumulation of waste. It can be cleaned easily and quickly with a high-pressure gun. Taking the vegetable cutter as an example, it can not only cut rhizome vegetables into different shapes such as silk, slices, and strips, but also cut delicate leafy vegetables through the close cooperation of the upper and lower belts. Moreover, the whole machine and the feeding conveyor belt can be disassembled, which is convenient and quick to clean, avoiding the corrosion of pickled Chinese cabbage foam on the belt, and improving the service life of the belt.
