An industrial microwave dryer for mealworms, black soldier fly larvae and Tenebrio molitor, used in insect protein production for animal feed and pet food.

Insect meal has become a significant feed ingredient, and the drying stage governs both throughput and product quality. Larvae are high in moisture and fat, a combination that scorches readily under hot air. Microwave drying works through the material rather than from the surface inward, avoiding that. Contact us with your daily harvest volume and target moisture for sizing.

A continuous microwave dryer passing product through a tunnel on a belt while microwave energy removes moisture. Unlike hot air drying, which heats the surface and relies on conduction inward, microwave energy is absorbed by the water throughout the material.

That difference matters for anything where surface overheating damages the product: drying is faster, the core dries at the same rate as the outside, and colour and aroma are better retained. Running continuously rather than in batches keeps conditions stable across a shift. Contact us with your product, its incoming and target moisture content, and your throughput for sizing.

A microwave dryer oven combining drying and baking functions, for products that need both moisture removal and heat treatment.

Combining the two in one machine suits products such as nuts, grains and some snack items where drying and roasting happen together, and it saves a transfer between machines. Temperature and dwell time are set independently of microwave power, giving control over both aspects. Microwave power and dwell time are sized against your throughput and the moisture to be removed. Contact us with your product and process requirement for a configuration recommendation and quotation.

A microwave dryer and grain oven for drying and heat treating grain, pulses and similar bulk agricultural products.

Beyond drying, controlled heat treatment of grain serves to kill insect eggs and reduce microbial load before storage, which is often a condition of export. Doing both in one pass saves handling the material twice. Capacity and power are specified against throughput. Insect disinfestation and microbial reduction both depend on reaching temperature throughout the grain bed. Contact us with your grain type, incoming moisture and daily tonnage for a recommendation and quotation.

A microwave dryer machine for industrial drying of food and agricultural materials, supplied in capacities from pilot scale to production.

Pilot scale machines are worth noting: microwave drying behaves differently with different materials, and trialling on a small machine before committing to a production unit is the sensible route when the material has not been dried this way before. We can arrange trials. Production machines are supplied in batch and continuous tunnel configurations to suit the production pattern. Contact us with your product and we will advise on whether a trial is warranted.

A vacuum microwave dryer and sterilization dryer for fruit slices and similar heat sensitive products, combining microwave energy with reduced pressure.

Under vacuum, water boils at a lower temperature, so the product dries at a temperature that does not damage colour, flavour or heat sensitive nutrients. For dried fruit, where appearance largely determines price, this is the difference between a premium product and a browned one. The machine handles drying and sterilization in one pass. Contact us with your product and throughput for a specification.

A conveyor belt industrial microwave dryer carrying product through a microwave tunnel on a continuous belt, with belt speed setting the dwell time and therefore the degree of drying.

Belt speed is the main operating control, which makes the machine straightforward to adjust for different products or for variation in incoming moisture. It suits food, herbs, grain and other materials where even drying matters and where hot air would damage colour or volatile content. Contact us with your product, throughput and incoming moisture for a recommendation on size and power.

An industrial microwave dryer for continuous drying of food, herbs, grain and similar materials at production scale.

Microwave drying is chosen where speed matters or where hot air would damage the product. It is faster because the energy reaches the water throughout the material rather than having to conduct inward from a heated surface, and it is gentler because the surface never reaches the temperature hot air drying requires. Contact us with your product, throughput and moisture figures for sizing and a power recommendation.

A microwave dryer for food and agricultural products, using microwave energy to remove moisture rather than hot air.

The practical differences are speed and evenness. Energy is absorbed by the water throughout the material, so the centre dries at a similar rate to the surface and the product does not case-harden with a dry shell over a wet core. Supplied in batch and continuous configurations. Material handling matters as much as the microwave power, and the belt or tray type is chosen to suit. Contact us with your product, incoming and target moisture and throughput for sizing.
