Industrial Food Freeze Dryers
Large Capacity Food Freeze Drying Plant
The Vikumer FDR freeze dryers are large food freeze drying plants that fit industrial large volume production. Designed to process fruits, soup, vegetables, seafood and prepared meals. Rapid drying cycle and economic running cost.
While a large volume of products in plenty of trays need to be handled. To minimize the employees and labor time, the FDR adopt auto loading unloading system. Raw products are placed on trays on trolleys, which are hanging on overhead monorail, by slide the trolleys, operator can quick transfer products to areas they want. For example IQF room, freeze dryer, harvest area and trays clean room.
Design of the FDR dryers are completely modular. All its sub-systems are individual modules, and are independent install besides drying chamber. Easy to transport, install and maintain. Of course, Vikumer will offer turn-key service for all FDR freeze dryers. Ship to your nearest seaport and charge install and commissioning.
We deeply know, when freeze drying rise to commercial production stage, your freeze drying plants have to be dependable to support the good running of your business. And they should energy saving, to reduce your production cost. Vikumer uses its knowledges in the field and designed FDR freeze dryers. With hundreds of installations, we proved our values. Our equipment works extremly well on all food freeze dried industries.
