The heat treatment of plastics (known as annealing and Normalising) is important to make sure tight tolerances are maintained during precision machining, bonding and polishing and to avoid cracking and crazing. Heat treating also eliminates internal stresses and ensures higher mechanical and thermal properties. While not this essential heat treatment method, it’s virtually impossible to […]

Precisely controlled heating is a very important aspect of several industrial processes and is utilized in many glass industry manufacturing processes. Infrared heaters will heat surfaces directly and exactly, with high efficiency. They’re easily controlled to achieve desired thermal profiles, and accurately adjusted to process and material needs. Infrared heaters are widely used for drying […]

The production of crisp dried apple chips with low fat and high fiber content are expected to be extremely fascinating by consumers. consumers can purchase the dried apple chips in the […]

Ginger is a perennial creeping plant, with thick tuberous rhizome, manufacturing and erect stem 30-100cm tall. It’s propagated from rhizome cuttings, planted on rich, well-drained soil. The top five ginger producing countries in the world are India, China, Nepal, Nigeria, and Thailand. India, with a production of 7.03 billion, leads in the world ginger cultivation. […]

IR radiation releases energy in electromagnetic wave form in the spectrum from 0.75 μm to 1,000 μm. The wavelength of IR usually is further classified into 3 ranges, namely, near-IR (0.75 μm to 1.4 μm), medium-IR (1.4 μm to 3 μm), and far-IR (3 μm to 1,000 μm). Principal food elements, including water, organic compounds, […]

Drying is a vital unit operation needed in food process industries, significantly in the dry fruits trade. Drying of almonds exhibit several characteristic options like non-spherical form, swelling/ shrinkage as a function of moisture content, uneven drying due to their peculiar form and proximity to alternative almond kernels and so on. The drying of almonds […]
