Industrial Food Drying Equipment

Find innovative industrial food drying equipment and connect directly with world-leading technology suppliers.

Why do you have to dry your food products? This is simply because the product contains too much moisture after processing. Food products go through a drying process so their quality can be enhanced and the shelf life of the product can be extended. So, how can we choose the right food drying equipment for your drying process? The answer lies in the nature of the materials to be handled.

Do you know which properties you want for your product? - selecting the correct drying equipment

Have you thought about the product's moisture content, consistency, particle size and distribution, temperature resistivity, and porosity? Phew, these are a lot to consider. Yes, but these are necessary factors you should think about to determine which food drying technology you need. You may consider direct or indirect heating of your product, freeze or vacuum drying solutions, continuous fluid beds, belt dryers, or air dehumidifiers.
Continuous flash drying is often employed for drying fish and fish feed. Ingredients like garlic, algae, plankton, and milk products (like colostrum and breast milk) are often freeze-dried. Vacuum drying is a more efficient and faster method appropriate for thermal and oxygen-sensitive materials - such as gelatin powder or protein powder. Belt drying technology can be applied to fruits and vegetables, like carrot chips. And fluid bed drying equipment often involves a fluidization and granulation process, and it usually involves pharma products and some food products in powder form, like cocoa powder.

Pay attention to these when you are drying your food products - explosion risks, airflow, and hygiene

Remember that handling temperature-sensitive products, as well as living cell structures, requires a high degree of care and attention. There are a few factors to pay attention to during the industrial food drying process. First, you need to keep the constant air circulation during the process since this will bring more efficient and faster results. Secondly, you need to make sure the equipment is safe. This includes considering the explosion risks to guarantee operator safety. Lastly, do not undermine hygiene. Pay attention to the hygienic aspect of the equipment to prevent health risks and manufacture high-quality end products.
