Mayonnaise Production Equipment from Emulsifying to Filling

Mayonnaise is one of the most widely consumed condiments globally, and its production centers on the stable emulsification of oil and water phases. Whether producing classic full-fat mayonnaise (with an oil content of approximately 67%), low-fat formulations, or vegan versions, the key to high quality lies in the selection of emulsification equipment and the matching of filling systems. This article provides a systematic overview of these two core equipment for mayonnaise production to help you establish an efficient and stable production line.

Part 1: Emulsification Equipment–The Core of Mayonnaise Production

Mayonnaise is a classic oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion, and its stable industrial production presents three major challenges:

1. Oil droplet size control: Oil droplets must be broken down to a sufficiently small size to ensure the long-term stability of the emulsion; larger droplets are more prone to coalescence and phase separation.

2. Oil addition rate control: Adding oil too rapidly can cause the emulsion to "break," resulting in the separation of oil and water phases.

3. Viscosity management: As oil is added, the system's viscosity rises sharply, requiring equipment capable of consistently maintaining high shear forces.

Conventional mixing equipment is inadequate for these tasks. Specialized emulsification equipment utilizes high shear forces to refine oil droplets to the micron scale, creating a stable emulsion structure. Depending on production scale, product positioning, and investment budget, we offer two mainstream emulsification equipment for mayonnaise.

Option 1: SLIM Series In-Line Emulsification Equipment(Three-Stage Emulsification Pump)

Positioning: An economical continuous emulsification solution featuring a three-stage emulsification pump design, suitable for small-to-medium-scale production and cost-sensitive projects.

The three-stage emulsification pump achieves progressive high-shear processing through three sets of stators and rotors arranged in series:

  • Stage 1: Coarse emulsification, preliminary mixing of the oil and water phases.

  • Stage 2: Fine emulsification, further refinement of oil droplets.

  • Stage 3: Precision emulsification, achievement of a stable particle size distribution.

Key Advantages of the SLIM Series:

Suitable Applications:

1)Small and medium-sized food processing plants

2)Projects with limited budgets that prioritize consistent quality

3)Continuous production requirements

4)OEM contract manufacturers

Option 2: SLFT Series Integrated Vacuum Emulsification Equipment

Positioning: A high-end, integrated vacuum emulsification system designed to rival international brands (such as FrymaKoruma), catering to customers with exacting standards for product quality.

The SLFT series features an integrated bottom-mounted emulsification pump with built-in pumping and self-priming capabilities; materials are actively drawn into the high-shear stator-rotor zone for homogenization and emulsification.

Key Advantages of the SLFT Series:

Suitable Applications:

1)Large-scale food processing plants

2)Premium mayonnaise brands

3)Production lines requiring exceptional product smoothness and extended shelf life

Part 2: Filling Equipment - Packaging for Every Format

Once emulsification is complete, the mayonnaise requires a packaging format tailored to the target market. We offer a wide range of filling equipment to meet all mainstream packaging needs.
