The lentil drying machine<\/mark><\/strong> is a closed-chamber batch dryer built around an air-source heat pump system. It processes 300\u20138,000 kg of lentils per batch<\/mark><\/strong>. Lentils enter at 13\u201315% moisture<\/strong>. The system reduces this to 5% <\/strong>within approximately <\/mark>6 hours<\/mark><\/strong>. Dried lentils are ready for storage, packaging, milling into flour, or further processing into protein isolates and split lentil products.<\/p>

Conventional sun drying takes 3\u20137 days<\/strong>. It exposes lentils to dust, insects, and rain damage. This lentil dryer operates at 50\u201365\u00b0C<\/strong> in a sealed chamber. The heat pump recycles thermal energy from exhaust air. It delivers a COP of 3.0\u20134.0<\/strong>. Electricity consumption drops by 60\u201370%<\/strong> compared to direct electric heating. A PLC touchscreen lets operators program drying profiles. Chamber temperature stays within \u00b11\u00b0C<\/strong>. Relative humidity stays within \u00b13%<\/strong>. The 6-hour cycle<\/strong> enables 3\u20134 batches per day<\/strong>.<\/p>

Shuliy has manufactured industrial drying equipment for over 20 years<\/strong>. The company has exported heat pump dryers to more than 30 countries<\/strong>. All chambers use 304 stainless steel trays<\/strong>. Housing options include galvanized steel and SUS304. The system meets EU and FDA food-contact material standards. A 12-month warranty<\/strong> covers all mechanical and electrical components. Lifetime technical consultation is included.<\/p>

Why Does a Lentil Drying Machine Require Precision Moisture Control?<\/h2>

Lentils are a high-protein legume. They contain 24\u201326% protein, 60\u201365% carbohydrates, and less than 1% fat<\/strong>. These nutritional properties make them a staple food in over 120 countries. But they also create specific drying challenges.<\/p>
