Drying | Machines & Equipment | Food
Drying is often a critical process in the production of various food products. Moisture tends to reduce product stability and may lead to growth of fungus, mold or bacteria. Drying is used to extend the usable life of food products, prevent cake formation, improve flow properties of powders or granules, reduce volume for transportation and to simplify handling. Selection of suitable drying equipment depends on the nature of the material, heat sensitivity and required throughput. Vekamaf.com helps you choose the solution that’s right for your application. We offer a wide range of food drying equipment including vacuum dryers, paddle dryers, belt dryers, thin film dryers, freeze dryers, fluid bed dryers and air dehumidifiers.
