The Chili Pepper Dehydration Processing Line — a fully integrated, ready-to-operate solution engineered for high-volume chili dehydration. This system streamlines the transformation of fresh chilies into dried, shelf-stable products with optimal flavor retention and efficiency.

Chili Pepper Dehydration Process
Receiving & Cleaning → Sorting & Pre-treatment → Cutting/Punching (if needed) → Continuous Mesh-Belt Dryer → Cooling & Sorting
Chili Pepper Dehydration Equipment List
Receiving & Cleaning Unit: Washes and removes impurities from fresh chilies to ensure sanitary processing.
Sorting & Pre-treatment Section: Filters out undersized, damaged, or foreign materials to ensure quality inputs.
Cutting/Punching Device: (Optional) Creates channels in chili pods to accelerate moisture evaporation.
Continuous Mesh-Belt Dryer (Core Equipment): Utilizes a stainless-steel mesh-belt with adjustable temperature (40–120 °C), belt speed, and airflow to dehydrate chilies uniformly in a continuous, automated fashion; customizable for capacity (up to ~1500 kg/h or more), heating source (electric, steam, gas, biomass), and tailored airflow control to preserve chili color, aroma, and nutrients.
Cooling & Sorting Module: Cools dried chilies and sorts them, ensuring only high-quality items proceed.
Chili Pepper Dehydration Equipment Advantages
Uniform Drying Quality: The mesh-belt design delivers even airflow and heat distribution, enhancing consistency across batches.
Automation & Scalability: Continuous operation and customizable settings improve throughput and reduce manual labor.
Energy Efficiency: Intelligent control and optional waste-heat recovery reduce energy consumption and operational costs.
Versatility & Custom Fit: System can be adjusted for different chili varieties, moisture levels, and site constraints.
