New Zealand-based Cuddon Freeze Dry is showcasing its latest innovation at foodpro 2023 — a new ‘green’ range of commercial conductive batch freeze dryers aimed at the dairy industry.
The range of dryers, designed and manufactured in New Zealand, include the FD100GPC small commercial model, also suitable for R&D and pilot-scale work, the FD600GPC and FD1200GPC, and its largest industrial model, the FD1800GPC. The model number denotes the amount of moisture (in kg) the ice trap can capture within 24 h.
According to the company representative, the design of the unit is centred around the use of liquid-filled heat plates delivering less than 1 kelvin variation across all contact surfaces in the dryers. This makes them particularly suitable for heat-sensitive products and for the dairy industry to dry whey protein extract products such as lactoferrin.
The unit uses CO2 as the freeze dryer refrigerant to reduce the environmental impact.
The company’s 3D-printed model freeze dryers will be debuting at foodpro 2023.
