Fig Drying Case

1、 Drying background

Fig is rich in nutrients, but fresh fruit is not easy to store. Traditional drying methods are limited by weather conditions and are prone to mold and discoloration, and can take up to 3-5 days, seriously affecting product quality and economic benefits. In order to meet the demand for large-scale production, Mr. Zhang, a sole proprietor in Hunan, purchased Jinlu Machinery’s 6-car biomass pellet drying room to achieve efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly industrial drying, greatly improving production efficiency and product added value.

2、 Customer selection

After multiple comparisons, the customer ultimately chose our drying solution, which has core advantages including:

✅  Large capacity design: 6 movable stacking small carts, capable of drying 1.8 tons of fresh fruits at a time, increasing production capacity by 300%.

✅  Biomass pellet heating: Low cost, low pollution, 40% energy-saving compared to electric heating, and more environmentally friendly than coal-fired heating.

✅  Intelligent temperature and humidity control: precise adjustment (40-100 ℃), avoiding high temperature damage to the sugar and nutrition of figs. The finished product has a golden color and a soft and glutinous texture.

✅  Stable and durable: The 304 stainless steel inner liner is corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and the equipment has a lifespan of over 10 years.

3、 Customer reviews

Mr. Zhang, a self-employed individual from Hunan, said, “In the past, it used to depend on the weather when drying figs. Now, we use biomass drying rooms and produce batches every 18 hours. The quality is stable, and the repurchase rate of e-commerce customers has increased by 50%! Moreover, the cost of pellet fuel is low, and the government also provides environmental subsidies, making the investment return particularly fast.
