Papaya Shreds Drying in Nanning, Guangxi
1.Customer Needs
The Guangxi Nanning Papaya Processing Company is a key local agricultural product deep-processing enterprise, specializing in papaya shreds and preserved fruit. With growing market demand, traditional drying methods face significant challenges:
Insufficient production capacity: Relying on natural drying, the daily processing capacity is less than 5 tons, unable to meet order demand.
Unstable quality: Manual turning and drying results in uneven papaya shreds, which are prone to oxidation and discoloration, resulting in a low pass rate of only 70%.
High energy consumption and pollution: Traditional coal-fired drying is costly and does not comply with environmental regulations.
2.Jinlu Machinery Customized Drying Equipment
To meet customer needs, we customized a six-layer, 18-meter-long, 2.3-meter-wide, fully automatic electric heated mesh belt dryer. Key highlights include:
Ultra-large capacity design: The six-layer mesh belt structure provides an effective drying area of 248 square meters, capable of processing 2.5 tons of fresh papaya shreds per batch, increasing daily production capacity to 15-18 tons of dried product.
Precision Electric Heating System: Utilizing intelligent PID temperature control (adjustable from 30-85°C) and independent zone control, this system ensures uniform heating and color of the shredded papaya, while reducing nutrient loss by 40%.
Energy-saving and environmentally friendly: Compared to traditional coal-fired drying, electric heating improves thermal efficiency by 35%, eliminates waste gas emissions, and fully meets food-grade production requirements.
Automated Control: Equipped with a PLC touchscreen operating system, it monitors temperature, humidity, and drying progress in real time, supports data logging and remote management, and reduces manual intervention.
Since the equipment went into production, the drying time for shredded papaya has been reduced to 6-8 hours, and the qualified rate of finished products has increased to over 98%. The process is pollution-free, successfully passing SC food production certification.
