The easy to understand touch screen shows the progress of the batch in detail and what the estimated remaining time is.
In the past users have freezed their product in poorly controlled environments (such as deep freezers), and then transfer into a lyophiliser / freeze dryer for drying. This causes undesirable ice formation and potentially product transfer related melt-back – both of which negatively impact on drying behaviour, performance and, ultimately, product quality.
The new and innovative autodry mode is perfect for beginners or users who do not want to setup their own drying programs. The program uses an advanced algorithm to determine drying progress. It automatically adapts drying parameters and identifies process end. If your product is not completely dry you can easily add more dry time.
With an impressive 8 kg ice capacity, the CD8 can process large batches of product in a single cycle. Capable of removing up to 4 kg of ice from the product per 24 hours, the CD8 is an ideal choice for high-volume applications.
Easy to load and unload vertical tray stacking chamber. Cooled and heated shelves for fast freezing and even faster drying. Typical time savings of more than 60% (based on in-house study, compared with passive systems). Shelf temperature range of -40 degrees Celsius up to 60 degrees Celsius allows precise control of the entire process from freezing to the heat application during drying.
The CD8 freeze dryer comes with 5 electrically heated stainless steel shelves in the unique Sandwich Shelf Stack Design which provides premium temperature control accuracy and even heat distribution to ensure uniform drying of your food. No more swapping shelves around because of uneven drying temperatures!
The shelves are designed with the heaters sandwiched between the stainless steel layers eliminating the need for glues and adhesives. The heaters are food safety certified.
The CD8 freeze dryer comes standard with 5 stainless steel trays, which are durable and easy to clean.
There are five heated shelf options of 9, 7, 5 , 3 or 1 shelf with shelf distances from 16mm to 188mm.

So whether you are doing a run with small portions, candy, or higher larger portions there is a tray configuration to suit. Shelf stack configurations can be purchased as accessories.
Choose from five shelf stack options:
9 Shelf Stack – for drying of liquids
7 Shelf Stack – for high capacity use with small product
5 Shelf Stack – high capacity, space saving, optimal air circulation (standard with CD8 freeze dryer)
3 Shelf Stack –
1 shelf Stack –
Yes your machine can simply be used as a vacuum oven enabling time and energy saving and shorter heat up times for candy and lollies. With the interchangeable shelves more candy can be processed depending on its size and expansion during candy mode process.
There are 4 available pump options, 2 oiled and 2 oil less pumps. The strong door seal allows usage of smaller quieter vacuum pumps which in turn reduces power consumption and less noise.
