The process chart illustrates the steps of canned pears production.Overall, the graph displays 14 steps involved in the process, beginning with preparation of fruits, production, and handling of the final canned goods.
Specifically, the first step involves manual pick-up of the pears from trees where they grow. Then, the gathered pears are transported by means of a large truck to a factory/production site, and later washed on a conveyor. The forth step consists of checking the quality of the pears, and later they are sent to the cold storage with the temperature below zero. Further, after they were taken from the storage, they are weighed to determine their mass and, subsequently, graded .
In the next stage, the preparation process begins, which firstly includes peeling, coring and slicing. In other words, the skin and the inner inedible parts of the pears are removed; then, the pears are sliced into two parts. Following these steps, they are canned, and sealed. Cooking and sterilizing finishes the preparation. After finishing this process, cans are labeled. Finally, labeled cans are stored and dispatched to the selling sites.
