Food freeze dryers for production

Commercial Food Freeze Dryers for Production at Every Scale

Compare published SSFD models by shelf area and reference fresh load, then review material behaviour, tray loading, cycle basis, utilities and factory workflow before configuring production equipment.

Equipment configuration

Start with the output, material and cycle—not only a model number.

Fresh load is a reference starting point. Material water content, piece geometry, tray depth, cycle time, production days and cleaning affect practical capacity.

Supplied selection guide

Published SSFD model references from 1 m² to 250 m².

Use these 12 model rows to compare shelf area and reference fresh load. Final capacity depends on product water content, slice thickness, tray density, loading method and the confirmed cycle.

Model Shelf area Indicative fresh load / batch* Heating method Typical fit
SSFD-1 1 m² 10 kg Contact / radiant Laboratory and trials
SSFD-2 2 m² 20 kg Contact / radiant Pilot and small production
SSFD-5 5 m² 50 kg Contact / radiant Small commercial batches
SSFD-10 10 m² 100 kg Contact / radiant Commercial production
SSFD-20 20 m² 200 kg Contact / radiant Medium production
SSFD-30 30 m² 300 kg Contact / radiant Medium / large production
SSFD-50 50 m² 500 kg Radiant Industrial line
SSFD-80 80 m² 800 kg Radiant Industrial line
SSFD-100 100 m² 1,000 kg Radiant Industrial line
SSFD-150 150 m² 1,500 kg Radiant High-output line
SSFD-200 200 m² 2,000 kg Radiant High-output line
SSFD-250 250 m² 2,500 kg Radiant Large factory project

* Reference values from the supplied SHENSHENG selection guide, not a guaranteed output. Large models from SSFD-50 upward are described as radiant-heating configurations requiring a separate quick-freezing room. Confirm values, utilities and the freezing route in the quotation.

Production planning

Turn a model reference into a production plan.

Use these four checks to connect the published model range to a workable batch and factory plan.

01 · Material balance

Fresh in → dried out

Confirm incoming water content, target moisture, expected yield and saleable product per batch.

02 · Time balance

Cycle → daily output

Include loading, freezing, drying, unloading, cleaning and planned changeover time.

03 · Tray balance

Piece size → shelf area

Define tray size, loading depth, spacing, pre-freezing method and handling labour.

04 · Utility balance

Peak demand → site capacity

Check power, cooling, room temperature, heat rejection and maintenance access.

Project inputs

Bring the inputs that change the proposal.

Bring the product and preparation method, fresh kilograms per batch, target dried output per day, cycle basis, electrical and cooling conditions, room dimensions and access.
