The process equipment to produce fruit products becomes progressively more needed in fruit growing farms, which receive good crop, but can not sell it with profit. Due to expenses for transportation and storage the price for the products increases so much that sometimes surpasses the cost price. It leads to the fact that it becomes unprofitable to grow and sell "green" fruits.

The proposed equipment for industrial processing of fruits and vegetables will allow you to preserve the gathered crop, to use the wastes for animal fodder, to decrease the share of irregular fruit household wastes, to expand trade in food-stuffs in the form of fruit desserts.

The convective dryers are designed to dry practically all fruits, vegetables, drug preparations, macaroni foods, meat and other products. The drying process is solely by blowing the product with the drying agent (air) with certain parameters (temperature, moisture), providing the production process.

The dryer economic feasibility is achieved by partial recirculation of the drying agent. The products, dryed by this method, do not rank below sublimated products in quality. The dryed products are restored quickly and completely in moistening liquid, their vitamins, taste, colour and smell are preserved at the most, they have a highly porous structure, low moisture content and preset geometrical shape.

Information for the line to dry potatoes, beatroot, carrots, onion, garlic.

Dryer performance allows to complete the lines to process the above raw materials with capacity up to 1 ton of raw material per day. Such line consists of:
Dryer - 2 pcs. (CKP-300) or 1 piece (CTЏ-50)

Auxiliary equipment:

• potatoes, beet, carrots - Washing tank, cleaning and cutting devices (or manual processing), sulfication bath, blancher;
• onion, garlic - Washing tank, cleaning and cutting devices (or manual processing), sulfication bath.

SKP dryer can be operated independently and in the process line to dry a certain product.

Infrared technology

Infrared technology is a new word in the world drying science and based on a property of water to absorb infrared radiation. The technology is realized in the equipment of two types:

Drying equipment is universal and allows to process any vegetable and animal foodstuffs with production of fast-reconstituted dry products.

THE BASIC ADVANTAGES OF THE EQUIPMENT:

• the lowest specific power consumption per 1 kg of the evaporated moisture - less than 1 kWhour/kg (twice less than that of any other drier)
• the lowest drying temperature - 50-60C;
• high drying speed - 30-200 min;
• simplicity and reliability, low price and high pay back.
  

The equipment is successfully used in as many as 9 countries of the world, including Holland and India. The equipment and dry products were awarded by medals and diplomas of Leipzig fair, "Russian farmer" and other fairs.

The basis of a drying complex is a drier.

We produce three basic models:

• "SUKHOVEI-3" drying cabinet;
• "VIKHR-45" belt drier;
• "VIKHR-90" belt drier.

Special driers can be produced by the order.

TUNNEL DRYER UST-3

Drier is one of the units of various processing lines for production of foodstuffs. It is intended for thermal drying of various foodstuffs with forced ventilation (dry breakfasts, pasta, corn sticks, potato chips, mushrooms, fruits etc.). A wide range of parameter control and electronic control allow usage of the drier for different purposes. Dryer is used in food plants, pasta shops of bakeries and farms.

Peculiarities of drier UST-3

The dryer consists of three conveyers moving with an individual preset speed. Minimum speed of the receiving conveyer facilitates maximum moisture removal in the initial drying period. Moisture is removed thanks to hot air passage through meshes of the conveyer cloth whereon the foodstuffs are arranged. Hot air circulation is closed. Moisture is blown out through a forced exhaust system. Hot air stream to each conveyor is regulated individually. Hermetic protection with a heat reflection layer ensures minimum heat losses in the dryer and its higher efficiency. Foodstuff movement and temperature of hot air stream are preset by electronic program control. Remote location of heating elements from foodstuffs makes the dryer fire safe.
