[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces are an important part of the traditional Chinese medicine system, and the quality and safety thereof are directly related to clinical efficacy and patient health. Traditional Chinese medicine materials are mostly derived from plants, animals or minerals, and are extremely prone to contamination by microorganisms, insect eggs and dust impurities during planting, collection, transportation and storage. Therefore, effective sterilization treatment of the raw materials is required before the production of decoction pieces. Among them, root and stem medicinal materials rich in sugar and mucilage, such as polygonatum, are particularly difficult and critical to sterilize.

[0003] However, the current sterilization process for polygonatum is mostly to directly slice and layer the polygonatum into a hot oven for drying and sterilization. The polygonatum slices are heated from the back when flatly placed on the container, and the staff needs to open the hot oven regularly to turn over the polygonatum slices. The polygonatum slices at different layers are not heated uniformly, and the polygonatum is rich in sugar and mucilage, which is easy to stick to the container and not easy to detach, thereby resulting in low work efficiency.
