Directions:
1. Selection and processing of raw materials: choose varieties with thick flesh, separation from the core, sweet taste, less fiber, strong aroma and orange-yellow flesh, and fruits that are fully ripe but not too ripe as raw materials
2. Cleaning and de-nucleating: remove broken and unsuitable fruits, classify them by size, use a bubble cleaning machine or a hair roller cleaning machine for cleaning, and then use an automatic de-nucleating machine to de-nucleate and cut the petals, which can be cut in half, Four, six. After cutting, arrange the fruit slices on the sieve tray with the cut side up.

The second stage: the temperature is 45 degrees, the humidity is 45%, and the temperature is constant for a total of 8 hours after heating; the material has a large water output in this stage. If the drying heat pump has insufficient moisture removal capacity, it is necessary to open a strong outlet for moisture removal;
The third stage: the temperature is 50 degrees, the humidity is 40%, and the temperature is maintained for a total of 20 hours after heating;
The fourth stage: the temperature is 58 degrees, the humidity is 30%, and the temperature is maintained for a total of 20 hours after heating up;
