DRUM DRYING PROCESS

A determining factor in the quality of baby food is the production line, which starts with the proper mixing of the ingredients and followed by the pre cooking of the slurry and concluded with the drying process.

Drum drying technology guarantees that the product is fully gelatinized which ensures that product derived from the drum dryer can be digested easily by babies and infants. No other drying process gives cereal-based baby food this unique mix of qualities and organoleptic properties.

The drum drying technology not only meets high consumer demands, but also offers many advantages for manufactures. The wet product is dried to the required final moisture content in one single process step, without the need for any additional equipment. Due to the intensive, high-temperature treatment the product undergoes during the drying process on a drum dryer, the product is actually pasteurized while being dried. l

The drum drying technology is incorporated into processing lines that also include slurry preparation, a mill sifter section, fro dry mixing with other ingredients, such as dried milk and fruit powders, and blending additives, such a vitamins and minerals, and a storage section with silos.
