When the peppers start to brown, it means that they have been roasted.

At the factory uses oven to dry chili peppers.

First of all, we need to know that the oven used in the dry pepper processing factory is a professional high-volume oven. Introduced below are the chili peppers drying ovens produced by experienced Baixin machinery, and they are also the most commonly used pepper drying oven on the market. Chili peppers drying ovens can be divided into three types according to the output: continuous mesh belt chili peppers drying oven, output 300-2000kg/h; heat pump chili peppers drying oven, output 100-5000kg/batch; integrated chili peppers drying oven, output 100-1500kg/batch. In addition to the difference in output, the heat source and working principle of the three ovens are also different. Each has its own advantages, which are described in detail below.

1.Continuous Mesh Belt Chili Peppers Drying Oven

This is a continuous production drying oven equipment, the main working principle is to spread the material evenly in the network. The material is moved in the oven 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 main advantages are fast drying speed, continuous automatic work, high output, flexible mobility, simple or without installation, etc.
Its 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 components of this continuous mesh belt chilli 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.Heat Pump Chili Peppers Drying Oven

This is a drying equipment for box batch production, the main working principle is 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 chili peppers, and the hot and humid air in the drying room is directly discharged to the outside of the drying room through the dehumidifier.
It quickly remove the water in the chili peppers without affecting the original color, shape and nutrient content of the chili peppers. The chili peppers 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 oven 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 output is 100-5000kg/batch, and the heat source can be electricity, coal, wood chips, natural gas, diesel, propane, etc. The components of this chilli 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 Chili Peppers Drying Oven

This is a "closed Cycle" oven, 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 oven is carefully developed by Baixin Company by using the essence of drying, changed the traditional heat pump oven "bake" to "dehumidifier”.
Its several advantages were unmatched by the traditional heat pump oven. This oven 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 oven. The components of this all-in-one chilli 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:
