Food and feed applications

Discuss sliced vegetables, fruits, herbs, flakes, granules and suitable pet-food or animal-feed ingredients. Product shape, stickiness, composition and preparation determine whether belt drying is appropriate and which configuration should be considered.

Controlled drying for your product

A moving belt carries the product through heated airflow. Residence time, temperature, airflow and bed depth are selected around the drying behaviour of the material. Quality requirements such as colour, aroma, texture or rehydration should be defined before trials.

Hygiene and cleaning requirements

Share your food-contact material requirements, cleaning method, allergen controls and plant hygiene expectations. The proposed construction, access and handling arrangements should match the process. Required certifications and validation must be specified during the project.

Integration with upstream and downstream equipment

Tell us how the material is washed, sliced, blanched, extruded or otherwise prepared, and how it will be cooled, packed or processed after drying. Feed consistency and even loading help establish repeatable operating conditions.

Pilot trials and a process proposal

Use a representative sample to evaluate drying behaviour and the quality attributes that matter to your product. Ask about sample preparation and pilot-trial arrangements. Final capacity and operating conditions require assessment of your material and project data.

Your material. Your process.

These are examples of applications, not a complete list. For other materials, see our mesh belt dryer, band dryer and full dryer range, or discuss your requirement with us.

Frequently asked questions

Is belt drying suitable for every food ingredient?

No. Suitability depends on the ingredient, preparation, desired quality and drying behaviour. A sample trial can help compare options before equipment selection.

Does drying replace food safety validation?

No. Your food safety programme and any required microbial or process validation must be defined separately. A final-moisture target alone is not a food safety guarantee.

What data helps prepare a quotation?

Send the ingredient, product form and size, wet throughput, inlet and target moisture, temperature limits, quality requirements, utilities and installation country.

Request a process proposal

In your message, include your material, wet throughput, inlet and target moisture, available heat source, installation country and project timing. Please state whether moisture figures are on a wet or dry basis.
