Industrial Line Leo 030 600 Freeze Drying Machines

Our freeze drying product line; We’ve created our product line from a scratch, aiming all products to be simple and solid, so that all components and elements would demonstrate expected reliability, practicality and durability. We also know how important it is to be cost-effective these days, so we’ve pushed the technology beyond the limits of standard energy efficiency. As a result, we’ve created fully scalable, universal, durable and efficient technological platform, which was tested in the most rigorous operational environment.

Freeze drying of food: Freeze drying (also called as lyophilization) of food was first used after II World War, mainly for the purpose of creating astronaut and military rations. What once started as niche application, with a time run became a commonly used technology in a food processing industry. The unbeaten cons of freeze drying include, but are not limited to: complete nutritional profile of preserved food, ease of logistics (freeze dried food is light and does not need to be kept in low temperatures), long period of preservation (high level of dehydration guarantees that disease-producing and rotting bacteria and other small organisms stay away from the food). As a result, nowadays, both one-component food such as fruits, vegetables, meat, coffee, seafood and fish, dairy and eggs as well as ready, multi-componential meals such as soups, gravies, lunch boxes and many more – can be easily lyophilized.

Freeze dryers for the industry; Freeze drying of food has a growing meaning in nowadays world. Traditional usage of lyophilized food, such as for the purpose of mountain hiking, camping, space exploration and military needs, is fulfilled by demand from marine travels, preparation of survival kits, critical and national stocks gathered for emergencies, all kind of expeditions into wilderness and so on. While freeze drying becomes more energy efficient, the lyophilized food becomes even more popular, beginning to appear in business lunch boxes, catering deliveries, ready on the shelves products etc. We provide your with fully automated freeze dryers, that help you to satisfy all the needs of your clients while staying in line with food industry and sanitary regulations.

Optimal time and energy efficiency; Original automated control system monitors the parameters of lyophilization in real time mode. When the parameters of food that is dried meet pre-defined criteria, the freeze drier starts the next stage, saving time and energy used for the freeze drying cycle. This approach allows to substantially lower the time of freeze drying cycles, generating significant savings on the production.

Environmentally friendly; All our models are currently designed as R-32-compliant installation. R-32 (difluoromethane) is a HFC (hydrofluorocarbon)-refrigerant, that has one of the lowest Global Warming Potentials (GWP) among industrial gases used in refrigerant industry nowadays. We are constantly monitoring changes in regulations that aim to protect the global climate and adjust the technology to changing environment. As soon as suppliers of our components finish testing of the devices with R-32 refrigerant, freeze driers would be automatically switched to less potentially harmful solution.

Easy maintenance and care; Our freeze dryers are designed so that they are user-friendly, easy to keep clean and prepared for intense work. Our automated, designed from a scratch control system not only gives you a detailed and user-friendly graphical menu for steering, but also is pre-programmed for lyophilization of different kind of foods in fully automated cycles. The same control system allows to monitor the functioning of the freeze dryer in real-time mode, that allows us to react in advance in case parameters of lyophilization get worse. All our freeze dryers are prepared to be easily washed (i.e. by pressure washer) and are equipped in programmable module that reminds in advance about crucial service needs.

Chamber installed on enclosed steel frame, that also includes all the components, controls, piping and accessories in one place;

Original all-in-one freeze, heat and defrost system, that allows to use minimum of key components in different stages of lyophilization. Combined with heat recovery unit, optimal lyophilization time control unit and economical use of the low-temperature R507 refrigerant, we are able to be as energy-efficient as possible;

All components and construction elements such as doors, shelves handlers, trays, vapor condenser etc., that directly participate in lyophilization or has potential contact with food, are made of HACCP-compliant stainless steel. Shelves modules and the ice condenser are located internally, that allows for clean room separation;

Castors for maneuverability, carts for trays loading in case of bigger models (with 100 kg load / batch and more);

Real-time sensors connected by Wi-Fi or by LAN; observation camera for full remote control of operation using dedicated smartphone or PC within authorized access point.
