Core Technology & Innovations
- Heat Pump Drying System
• Energy Efficiency: Utilizing closed-loop heat recovery and variable-frequency compressors, the system reduces energy consumption by 50–70% compared to traditional dryers.
• Adaptive Temperature Control: Adjustable ranges (35–75°C) cater to:
◦ Anise Star: Dry at 45–50°C to retain 90% of essential oils (e.g., anethole), critical for spice and pharmaceutical markets.
◦ Areca Nut: Two-stage drying (pre-dry at 55°C, final dry at 60°C) reduces moisture to <6% while preserving tannins for traditional chewing products.
◦ Fruits/Vegetables: Preserve 95% of vitamins and natural sugars in apples, bananas, or leafy greens with low-temperature protocols. - Hygienic & Multi-Purpose Design
• 304 Stainless Steel Trays: Compliant with HACCP and ISO22000 standards, ensuring corrosion resistance and allergen-free processing.
• Modular Trays: Expandable from 5 to 30 layers, supporting batch processing of 50 kg to 10 tons/day, ideal for SMEs and large facilities. - Smart Automation
• IoT-Enabled Monitoring: Track real-time humidity, temperature, and energy use via a 7-inch PLC touchscreen with cloud-based analytics for remote management.
• AI-Driven Maintenance: Predictive alerts for filter replacements and airflow adjustments minimize downtime.
Market Advantages
- Rapid ROI & Sustainability
• Solar-Ready Integration: Optional solar thermal compatibility cuts grid dependency by 25–30%, qualifying for subsidies like the EU Green Deal. • Cost Savings: High-volume operations achieve ROI in 12–18 months through reduced energy bills and minimized post-harvest losses. - Global Certifications
CE-certified with Halal, Kosher, and USDA Organic endorsements, meeting stringent requirements for EU, North American, and Asian markets. - Multi-Product Flexibility
• Batch Versatility: Switch between anise, areca nuts, fruits, and vegetables using preset programs.
• Nutraceutical Applications: Produce spice powders or additive-free dried snacks for functional foods.
