On June 10, 2025, the benchmark enterprise in the field of intelligent food processing equipment will push the new product-FX-ZD series of fully automatic intelligent freeze-drying equipment. The equipment integrates multi-dimensional freeze-drying technology, intelligent energy-saving system and full-link digital control system, solves the core pain points of traditional freeze-drying equipment "time-consuming, high energy consumption and large quality fluctuation", and provides subversive solutions for freeze-drying processing in many fields such as fruits and vegetables, meat and traditional Chinese medicine, marking a new level of intelligence of food freeze-drying equipment in China.
Freeze-drying technology has been widely used in snack food, health food, medicine and other industries in recent years because it can retain the nutrients, color and flavor of the ingredients to the greatest extent. However, traditional freeze-drying equipment has three major industry bottlenecks for a long time: first, the freeze-drying cycle is generally as long as 12-24 hours, the production efficiency is low, and it is difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production of enterprises; second, it is controlled by a single freeze-drying curve, and the suitability of different food materials is poor. The problem of incomplete or excessive freeze-drying of local freeze-drying is prone, and the qualified rate of products is low, some enterprises freeze-dried link energy consumption costs accounted for more than 40% of production costs, seriously restricting the industry profit space. Based on more than 10 years of food processing equipment research and development experience, the formation of a special research and development team after three years of technical attack, successfully broke through these industry pain points.
The core competitiveness of the FX-ZD series of fully automatic intelligent freeze-drying equipment is reflected in three major technological innovations. First of all, the technology of "honeycomb vacuum cavity + multi-dimensional gradient freeze-drying" is innovatively adopted. By optimizing the cavity structure design, the vacuum uniformity is improved by 50%. At the same time, an intelligent freeze-drying curve algorithm is installed, which can automatically adjust the temperature, vacuum degree and freeze-drying time according to the characteristics of food materials, shorten the average freeze-drying period to 6-10 hours, and improve the production efficiency by more than 40%. Secondly, the research and development of high-efficiency and energy-saving refrigeration system, combined with waste heat recovery technology, the unit energy consumption of equipment is 35% lower than that of traditional products. Taking an enterprise with a daily output of 1 ton of freeze-dried products as an example, the annual energy consumption cost can be saved by more than 800000 yuan. Furthermore, it is equipped with a full-link digital control module to realize real-time data monitoring and traceability from raw material input, freeze-drying process to finished product outbound. At the same time, it supports docking with enterprise ERP system to help enterprises realize intelligent production management, and the qualified rate of products is stable above 99.5.
"The development pain point of freeze-drying industry is our research and development direction." Li Jianguo, director of intelligent research and development of Fengxing, said at the new product launch conference that the equipment has been applied in fruit and vegetable processing enterprises and traditional Chinese medicine processing bases in Shandong, Yunnan and other places. Feedback from the pilot enterprises shows that in addition to the advantages of efficiency and energy consumption, the freeze-dried products processed by the equipment are better than the industry average in key indicators such as rehydration and nutrition retention rate, and the product premium capacity is increased by 15%-20%. At present, the equipment has obtained 5 national invention patents, and more than 30 companies from the food and pharmaceutical fields have reached purchase intentions.
Industry analysts pointed out that the scale of China's freeze-dried food market is growing at an average annual rate of 20%, while high-end freeze-drying equipment has been imported for a long time. The launch of Fengxing intelligent FX-ZD series of automatic intelligent freeze-drying equipment not only breaks the technical monopoly of imported equipment, but also provides a feasible path for small and medium-sized processing enterprises to upgrade with high cost performance, It will accelerate the development of scale and standardization of China's freeze-drying industry.
According to the person in charge of the intelligent marketing department of Fengxing, according to the needs of different industries, this series of equipment provides a variety of production capacity specifications such as 50 kg/h, 100 kg/h and 200 kg/h, and will provide customized process solutions and 7 × 24-hour after-sales response services. In the future, Fengxing Intelligence will continue to focus on the iterative upgrade of freeze-drying technology, and plans to introduce special freeze-drying equipment suitable for liquid raw materials and heat-sensitive raw materials to further expand the product application scenario.
