The primary purpose of using a Chinese herbal medicine dryer to dry herbal medicines is to facilitate long-term storage, transportation, and subsequent processing. Due to the unique properties of medicinal materials, the drying process must preserve their medicinal properties.

Guoxin Machinery, a professional manufacturer of Chinese herbal medicine dryers with nearly 20 years of experience, has hundreds of Chinese herbal medicine dryer customers and extensive experience in drying processes. By analyzing the actual needs and drying process requirements of Chinese herbal medicine customers, we found that only two types of drying equipment are commonly used: large-scale fully automatic mesh belt dryers and small to medium-sized air-energy heat pump drying rooms. Large-scale fully automatic mesh belt dryers are primarily used for large-scale, continuous drying of materials, suitable for drying daily outputs of over 2 tons. The equipment utilizes a multi-layered, circulating, and rotating structure, resulting in high throughput, high efficiency, and excellent drying quality. This system has enabled centralized, industrialized, intelligent, and automated drying of various agricultural products and Chinese medicinal materials. After nearly two decades of use and improvement, the drying technology of this drying equipment has been highly refined. It has served tens of thousands of agricultural product and Chinese medicinal material drying customers, bringing significant returns to users and promoting regional economic development. Its high social value has been highly praised by both the industry and users.
Small and medium-sized air-source heat pump Chinese medicinal material drying rooms are suitable for drying nearly all materials, especially vegetables, fruits, Chinese medicinal materials, meat, scented tea, spices, and nuts. They offer excellent drying results, are energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and precise, making them ideal for small processing companies or individuals with daily processing capacity under 5 tons. This type of drying equipment is not subject to environmental protection policies, and some areas have relevant purchase subsidy policies. The relevant drying processing technology principle has evolved from the air conditioning principle (reverse Carnot principle). After more than ten years of development and application, it has occupied nearly half of the drying industry, especially in the drying of Chinese medicinal materials, agricultural product processing, and food processing industries. With the overcapacity of agricultural products, farmers have strengthened their awareness of drying related materials, which has made the development prospects of drying rooms huge, and has also become an ideal drying equipment for drying small and medium-sized materials.
