Aoyimei Fully Automatic Velvet Antler Mushroom Heat Pump Drying Production Line

—— Completely Solving the Intelligent Drying Dilemma of Velvet Antler Mushrooms ——

In the intelligent experimental area of Guangdong Aoyimei Energy Saving Technology Co., Ltd., General Manager Zou Yihe watched real-time data updating on the screen. The fully automatic heat pump drying line for velvet antler mushrooms, developed over two years, resolves the intelligent drying bottleneck with "fully unmanned" innovation, overcoming the "last mile" of smart mushroom factory production.

Industry Pioneer: Pioneer in Velvet Antler Mushroom Heat Pump Drying Technology

As a domestic leader in air-source heat pump drying technology, Aoyimei adheres to the concept of “Extracting energy from the atmosphere, empowering production”. Focusing on high-efficiency, energy-saving drying technology for edible fungi, its core product, velvet antler mushroom heat pump drying equipment, maintains a market-leading share.

Chairman Pan Yaping strategically prioritized resources toward energy-saving and smart drying applications; General Manager Zou Yihe led the team to make continuous technical breakthroughs, earning widespread market acclaim.

Drying Dilemma: The “Stumbling Block” of Smart Factories

In recent years, velvet antler mushroom has become one of the fastest-growing edible fungus varieties. Automated processes cover bag preparation to harvesting. However, the final critical step before delivery—drying—has long relied on manual loading, tray shifting, unloading, and turning.

“Velvet antler mushrooms are rich in polyphenols. High temperature or humidity easily causes discoloration, affecting market price substantially,” explained Zou Yihe. Prior to 2020, biomass or natural gas heat sources caused high energy consumption and inaccurate controls.

Breakthrough & Tackle: Pioneering Air-Source Heat Pump Technology

In 2021, Aoyimei launched a specialized air-source heat pump dryer for velvet antler mushrooms. Utilizing precise temperature/humidity control, energy consumption was halved compared to traditional steam sources while effectively preventing browning issues.

However, traditional door-type or tunnel dryers still required substantial labor for loading and unloading.

Iterative Upgrade: Automated Line Achieves Full Unmanned Operation

In September 2023, Zou Yihe led technology research combining IoT, dynamic algorithms, and AI visual inspection, launching the fully automatic heat pump continuous drying line in 2025.

General Manager Zou Yihe stated that Aoyimei will continue to increase investments to enhance drying technology, promoting energy transition and smart upgrades across the industry.
