Optimization of Mechanical Structure for Pomegranate Peeling and Low-Damage Seed Extraction Technology Based on Mechanical Property Analysis: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in International journal of food science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
With a rich history of cultivation, pomegranates are an essential cash crop planted extensively, offering considerable economic gains in the fruit industry. Within the pomegranate processing industry, pomegranate processing equipment enhances seed extraction efficiency and liberates labor. This paper reviews the current state of development in pomegranate processing technology and equipment both domestically and internationally, covering various mechanical structures, the current application status of equipment, and the principles of mechanical peeling mechanisms. It analyzes the limitations present in the existing pomegranate processing equipment. This study explores key technical pathways for automating pomegranate peeling and seed extraction. It encompasses conducting mechanical property tests to determine physical parameters and mechanical characteristics, designing an adjustable mechanism, and establishing preprocessing steps for removing calyx and leaves. Consequently, a multistage pomegranate seed extraction technical solution incorporating preprocessing procedures is proposed. This method involves removing the calyx leaves from pomegranates to reduce the difficulty of opening them, thereby increasing seed extraction rates and minimizing seed damage. The calyx removal success rate exceeds 98%, with pomegranate damage rates ≤ 5%. This study provides guidance for the upgrading of the pomegranate processing equipment industry.
