Laboratory freeze dryer FD-CE series

processpilotfor the food industry

Product Overview
The FD-CE series are compact shelf food freeze dryers designed for small-batch food processing, laboratory use and benchtop production. Models cover shelf areas from 0.1 m² to 1.0 m², processing approximately 1–15 kg per batch depending on model. Touch-screen control, programmable temperature/time and shelf heating enable repeatable lyophilization cycles.
