How To Buy a Co-Packing Freeze Dryer In Three Easy Steps.
Step One: Choose the format, there are three:
Format #1) Vacuum Boxes ...They are for high output and generally lower quality, more of a dehydrated end-product.
Format #2) Drum ...Least expensive, generally lower throughput, a higher quality food product than a Vacuum Box.
Format #3) Shelf Contact ...Ultimate quality, perfectly reproduces the original food into freeze dried form.

Format #3) Shelf Contact ...Ultimate quality, perfectly reproduces the original food into freeze dried form.
The format that you choose directly impacts the end-product food quality. If you are trying to produce small batches of freeze dried food in the 100 - 300 lb. range, and it's OK that the quality of the end-product has a somewhat dehydrated texture and does not reconstitute perfectly, a Drum Dryer may work for you.

If you want perfection, a perfect meat, vegetable, fruit or prepared meal product, you must use a shelf contact system. Only shelf contact systems are able to produce the necessary uniformity of ice crystals and enable precise control over the kinetics of freeze drying.
