How to dry apricot :
1:Place the apricot on the conveyor belt of the apricot dryer. The apricot is spread on the feeder by the homogenizing device on the conveyor belt.The stacking thickness of apricot is 10-20CM.
2:After the apricot enters the apricot dryer, it runs in an “S” shape in the dryer. The transmission part of the apricot dryer adopts a variable-frequency speed-regulating motor, which can control the internal operation time of the drying according to the difference of the water content of the apricot.
3:The wind speed and wind pressure generated by the hot air blower make the hot air fully and evenly distributed inside the apricot dryer. Because the lower pressure is greater than the upper pressure, the hot air naturally moves upward, passing through each layer of the mesh belt, plus the movement and rolling of the apricot, Make the apricot fully contact with the hot air, fully heat exchange, and improve the drying efficiency. The dried apricot will drain through the last layer.
Working principle of apricot dryer
Apricot dryer machine is a kind of continuous production drying equipment, the main heating way has electric heating, steam heating, hot air heating. Its main working principle is to spread the material evenly in the network. The material is moved in the dryer by the operation of the machine, and the hot air draws out the water vapor of the material. so as to achieve the purpose of drying.
The operation temperature is 40-120 degree centigrade. And the dry cycle is 1-5 hours.
Components of apricot dryer:
Apricot dryer includes a heat source, feed conveyor, air intake system, discharge conveyor, electronic control system, and drying host.
Heat source selection of apricot dryer
The optional heat sources for the Apricot dryer are electricity, oil, natural gas, coal, wood, and steam.
