Compact freeze-drying equipment
Making freeze-dried products more accessible. Here is a guide to products that fulfill that desire.
How about a compact type of small freeze-drying (vacuum freeze-drying) machine that is affordable in price and size?
With casters, it is easy to set up and move.
Want to make your own freeze-dried products?
It can be used for a variety of purposes, such as long-term storage of fruits and vegetables, selling original menus at restaurants, and making pet treats.
What is freeze-drying (vacuum freeze-drying)?
Freeze drying (vacuum freeze drying) is a technique for drying food and other raw materials.
In this technology, the raw materials are first frozen, then placed in a vacuum environment and heated to remove water from the materials as the ice sublimates.
The resulting dried product is widely used in the food industry for soups, desserts, etc., as it has a much longer shelf life at room temperature and retains its flavor and nutritional value.
Basic Functions of Compact Freeze Drying Equipment
Small freeze-drying machines are designed for homes and small businesses, and are compact yet high-performance.
It is equipped with a “vacuum drying function” that sublimates moisture under vacuum conditions.
In addition, the “automatic control function” that can automatically manage temperature and vacuum makes operation easy even for beginners.
And, the space-saving design and energy efficiency of the machine enables high-quality freeze-drying with low running costs, even over long periods of use.
Our freeze-drying equipment has a touch panel with Japanese-language support, so operation is worry-free.
If you have any concerns about the introduction of the system, we can provide extensive support, as we have also delivered large production machines for factories.

Advantages and disadvantages of freeze-drying
Advantages of Freeze Drying
・Less loss of nutritional value and flavor of food due to drying
・Lightweight and easy to carry
・Long-term preservation is possible
Disadvantages of freeze-drying
・High capital and energy costs
・Takes time to dry
・Easily oxidizes and absorbs moisture when exposed to air
What you need to make freeze-dried products
・Freezing equipment (freezers)：
-20°C or lower freezer recommended (depends on material)
・Vacuum Freeze Drying Equipment：
The main unit of the device for sublimating water in a frozen state.
・Vacuum pump：
A device used to create a vacuum (our product comes as a set with the main unit)
・Material (raw material)：
Choosing quality materials has a big impact on the finished product
・packing material (boxes, insulation, shock resistance, etc.)：
Freeze-dried products are susceptible to moisture absorption and should be packaged in a sealed package with a desiccant.
Freeze-drying production process (e.g. fruits)
１.Pretreatment：Clean the material and cut it to the appropriate size
２.freeze：After pre-processing, the material is frozen in a freezer.
３.Primary Drying：Low-temperature heating in a vacuum environment sublimates frozen moisture.
This process allows water to evaporate as ice and dries the material
４.Secondary drying：The water remaining inside the cells of the material is further removed at a low temperature.
This process controls the final moisture content
５.Packaging and Storage：Seals product completely dry and preserves
Sealing with desiccant, oxygen absorber, etc. will preserve the product for an even longer period of time.
