The invention relates to a
shellfish freeze drying processing device and a method thereof. According to the invention, the problem that dried
shellfish quality is affected when
shellfish is heated during the traditional shellfish
drying processing is solved. The device successively comprises a freeing chamber, a slicer, a vacuum freeze-
drying chamber, a temperature returning chamber and a packing
machine. After standing and sand-
spitting of shellfish, meat and shell are separated; after separation and cleaning of shellfish meat, the cleaned shellfish meat is put into the
freezing chamber and frozen in the environment of minus 4 to 0 DEG C; frozen shellfish meat is sliced; after
slicing of shellfish meat, the shellfish meat slices are put in
layers in a stock rack and then sent into the vacuum freeze-
drying chamber to be freeze-dried in a vacuum environment of minus 45 to minus 35 DEG C; after drying, shellfish meat is put into the temperature returning chamber to return to the temperature of minus 10 DEG C; and packaging is carried out finally. After drying
processing, original
flavor of shellfish can be better maintained. Before vacuum freeze-drying, the multi-layer stock rack is adopted for layered stock preparation, vibration and flattening, thus reducing stacking thickness of shellfish meat during the vacuum freeze-drying process, enhancing drying efficiency and guaranteeing the drying effect.
