Numbers that matter
Strawberry reference calculation. Results depend on product and moisture.
One-eighth of the floor
40 m² for a freeze-dry setup, 4.8 m² for the vacuum-microwave unit. Same reference case.
About 3× the hourly output
7.5 kg/h against 25 kg/h of dry product, or up to 600 kg per day running 24 hours.
Grows by adding units
Every unit runs on its own. Add one when demand grows. Pre-drying and finishing modules complete the line.

- 1 · Load Pre-dried product is spread on trays and enters the chamber.
- 2 · Vacuum and microwave The chamber goes under vacuum. Microwave energy heats the product from inside.
- 3 · Puff Evaporating water expands the product. A crisp texture forms.
- 4 · Rest The product rests under vacuum while its moisture equalises.
