Aries is RF Systems’ radio-frequency response for bakery products: it increases the shelf-life and cuts processing costs. These dryers have been specially developed to remove excess moisture from food substrates in just a few minutes.

The RF technology is particularly suitable for the post-baking drying of baked products (biscuits, crackers, crispbread, wafers, rusks, etc..). In fact, the moisture reduction is a difficult task to achieve in conventional baking ovens due to the crust formation during baking, the surface browning and the high processing costs.

Radio frequency, on the other hand, is selective towards water and ensures drying and levelling in minutes, with no surface over-baking or excessive coloring. It also reduces the feared “checking” phenomenon. Among the key benefits of radio-frequency drying there are: higher product quality; easy integration in any production line; increase in production and cutting of processing costs; accurate process control.
