Cold AirDrying Machine

Cold Air Drying Machine

Cold Air Drying Machine applying low temperature dehydration which is the most similar to natural environment makes excellent smell,
flavor and texture of food and produces better quality food than heat drying. Its heat pump system is also cost effective.

Product Features

All-weather Drying

It guarantees uniform production and quality of food regardless of season and weather condition.

Pollution-free, Clean Drying

It solves all problems (product deterioration, gas absorption, fire risk, etc.) caused by the hot air drying (using direct fired heat).

Drying food in the original state

It maintains the original flavor, smell and color of dried food, and nutrients including protein are not destroyed during the drying process.

Energy Saving Dehydration

Since it uses a special heat exchanger and heat waste from a freezer, the electrical cost is much cheaper than oil (diesel) used in a hot air dryer.
(It can save over 50% energy, comparing to using a warm air dryer.)

Productivity Enhancement
and Convenient Storage

Comparing to using a hot air dryer, it enhances productivity and makes the storage easy after the dehydration.
(It can enhance productivity over 20%, comparing to using a warm air dryer.)

Easy-to-control

Temperature and humidity for a drying room can be easily selected for automatic operation by the food to dehydrate.

※ Remarks) ① Electric rate is based on the low-pressure power for industrial electricity (gap).
② Basic rate of electricity varies by the capacity (basic rate = KRW3,510/kWH)
③ The case of semi-dried pollack on 14 racks (drying room size : 10.4Mx4x3M) were used for the comparison.

4. Make-to-order is possible for products other than the standard specification.

Cool Air Drying Machine / Frozen Storage Concurrent Building

Hanul ENG builds a cool air drying machine and frozen storage at the same time, so that the process from food dehydration to storage can be done at a time. Quotation for the additional building will be estimated upon request.
