Garlic Drying Process/Garlic Drying Machine

As a very daily food, garlic is not only excellent condiments, high edible value, but also high medicinal value. Therefore, it is loved by people worldwide.

At present, in addition to the fresh garlic that can be seen everywhere in the market, dried garlic is also very popular in the market. After drying, the garlic not only retains the original taste and nutrition, but also is more convenient to store and carry. What kind of method can achieve such drying effect? Let's explore this issue together.
There are two ways to dry garlic. One is to do dry garlic at home, and the other is the large quantities of the garlic industry to produce dried garlic.


Drying garlic at home. First of all, peel the prepared fresh garlic to clean. Then put the garlic slice in the oven neatly, dry for six hours or dry the garlic slices in the sun for two to three days. This process is not complicated, but it is only suitable for families.
Garlic drying industry. If you want to do garlic processing business, you must use garlic drying machines that can be produced in large quantities. Next, let me share how to dry the garlic in large quantities of garlic dryers.
At present, there are three types of garlic drying machine, Continuous Mesh Belt Garlic Dryer with output of 300-2000kg/h; Heat Pump Garlic Drying Room with output of 100-5000kg/batch; and All-in-one Garlic Dryer with output of 100-1500kg/batch. Different types of garlic dryers have different characteristics, and you can choose a suitable garlic dryer according to your diverse drying needs. The details are as follows：

1.Continuous Mesh Belt Garlic Dryer   

This is a continuous production drying equipment, the main heating way has electric heating, steam heating, hot air heating, the output is 300-2000kg/h, and the heat source can be coal, wood chips, natural gas, diesel, propane, electricity ,etc. The main advantages are fast drying speed, continuous automatic work, high output, flexible mobility, simple or without installation, etc. Its main working principle is to spread the material evenly in the network. The material is moved in the dryer by the operation of the machine, and the hot air draws out the water vapor of the material. so as to achieve the purpose of drying. The operation temperature is 40-120 degree centigrade. And the dry cycle is 1-5 hours. The components of this continuous mesh belt garlic dryer include: Homogenizer, Feeder Conveyor, Mesh belt fruit dryer host, Heat source,Air Intake System, Control panel, Observation door, Output conveyor. The specific component and principle are as follows:

2.Garlic Heat Pump Drying Room

This is a drying equipment for box batch production, the output is 100-5000kg/batch, and the heat source can be electricity, coal, wood chips, natural gas, diesel, propane, etc. It adopts the principle of reverse Carnot cycle. It absorbs low-temperature heat energy in the air, and becomes high-temperature heat energy after efficient heat collection and integration of the heat pump system, which is transported to the drying room to circulate heating and drying the garlic, and the hot and humid air in the drying room is directly discharged to the outside of the drying room through the dehumidifier.
The garlic heat pump drying room can quickly remove the water in the garlic without affecting the original color, shape and nutrient content of the garlic. The garlic heat pump drying room is equipped with a computer control system, which can realize automatic temperature control. The drying temperature range of the heat pump dryer is 20-80°C. It has the advantages of strong drying capacity, better drying effect, simple operation, and 70% energy saving by adopting a heat pump system. The components of this garlic heat pump drying room include: Heat Pump, Trolley Tray, Fan Frame with Fan(Axial Compressor Fan), Dryer Room Parts. The specific component and principle are as follows:

3.All-in-one Garlic Dryer

This is a "closed Cycle" dryer, the output is 100-1500kg/batch, the heat is source mainly electricity, can also be coal, wood chips, natural gas, etc. We all know that the essence of drying is to take away moisture, but takes away the moisture temperature is not the most critical factor. The key for drying is depending on relative humidity within certain space, This closed-loop dryer is carefully developed by Baixin Company by using the essence of drying, changed the traditional heat pump dryer "bake" to "dehumidifier”. Its several advantages were unmatched by the traditional heat pump dryer. This dryer has a compact structure, great energy-saving, wide application, high drying quality, easy operation, simple installation and removable. it is the best drying equipment for small firms, drying experiment and scientific research. The users only connect the power to use, is the easiest operation heat pump dryer. The components of this all-in-one garlic dryer include:Power jack, Water outlet, Exhaust air outlet, Supporting wheels, Controller(PLC control panel), Door lock, Observation window, Circulating Air Inlet, Outlet for hot and dry air, PP tray, Stainless steel tray, Supporting racks for trays. The specific component and principle are as follows: 

Garlic Drying Machine Price

The above three are the main drying machines in the garlic drying industry. Regarding the price of these garlic dryers, first of all, the garlic drying equipment is a customized machine. Different manufacturers have different production technologies and drying levels. The performance, efficiency, and configuration of the garlic drying equipment produced are different, so the price will naturally vary greatly.
The price of the commonly used garlic drying room is about 3,500-50,000 US dollars, and the price of the garlic mesh belt dryer is about 30,000-100,000 US dollars. In addition to the basic equipment models, customized processing can also be carried out. and quotes.
The above is the garlic drying process, if you want to know more, please contact us.
