Purpose of lab scale freeze dryer
1.Testing New Products: small freeze dryer runs allow companies to test new recipes, formulations, packaging designs, or production processes on a small scale before committing to full-scale production.
2.Refining Processes:Small freeze dryer help identify potential problems or inefficiencies in the manufacturing process, allowing for optimization before scaling up.
3.Creating Market Samples: small freeze dryer runs can produce small quantities of a product for market testing, sales samples, trade shows, or investor presentations.
4.Validating Production Plans: small freeze dryer help companies validate their production plans and demonstrate to co-packers that the product is ready for full-scale production.
Freeze dried food
lab scale freeze dryer can produce all kinds of food,such as
Freeze dried fruit
Freeze dried vegetable
Freeze dried sea food
Freeze dried powder

FAQ
What is the Benefits of small freeze dryer Runs:
Reduced Risk: By testing on a small scale, companies can minimize the risk of costly errors or failures when scaling up to full production.
Cost Savings: Pilot runs can help identify and correct problems early on, potentially saving significant costs in the long run.
Improved Product Quality: Pilot runs allow for fine-tuning of recipes, processes, and other factors to ensure the final product meets quality standards.
Faster Time to Market: By identifying and resolving issues early, pilot runs can help accelerate the time it takes to bring a new product to market.
Retains nutrients: Freeze-dried food retains up to 97% of its nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Long shelf life: Freeze-drying removes the potential for bacterial growth, so freeze-dried food can last for years. Maintains flavor and texture: Freeze-drying preserves the original shape, flavor, and texture of food. Sustainable: Freeze-drying reduces food waste and transportation and storage costs.
Freeze drying works by first freezing a substance, then lowering the pressure around it to a vacuum, which allows the frozen water to directly transition from a solid (ice) to a gas (water vapor) through a process called sublimation, effectively removing the water content without going through a liquid phase, thus preserving the material's structure and properties; this is often used to preserve food, pharmaceuticals, and biological samples by significantly extending their shelf life.
