Industrial line — a measured ROI, configured to your product
The LEO-600 is configured to your material, site and throughput, so a generic on-page calculator would mislead. Send us your product and target volume and we’ll return a measured cost-per-kg and payback analysis within 2 working days.

Actual results depend on the specific material, recipe, preparation, load and ambient conditions, and may differ. These figures are for planning purposes only; Freeze-drying.tech accepts no responsibility for decisions made on their basis. Freeze-drying.tech can run a validation cycle of your product on the target machine to provide confirmed, measured yield and cycle-time figures.

FAQ
Questions buyers ask.
At industrial scale the LEO-600 is delivered as a tailored project, not an off-the-shelf SKU. Final price depends on configuration, utilities, installation, commissioning and service scope — so it's quoted per project. Tell us your target product, daily output and site and we'll build a costed proposal.
Up to 600 kg of fresh product per batch — 61.49 m² of shelf area across 176 GN 2/1 trays, with a 900 kg ice-condenser. This is high-volume production for food, nutraceutical and ingredient manufacturers running continuous freeze-dried output, not pilot or small-batch work.
Plan for a three-phase 380 V supply (≈95 kW connected), an installed weight around 7 400 kg plus the machine control unit, and the floor area, access and ventilation that implies. It's air-cooled. We provide a full site-readiness and utilities checklist as part of the project, before anything ships.
Oil-free vacuum is standard on this industrial class. That removes oil changes and any oil-migration risk from a continuous, food-grade production environment — the right default at this scale despite the higher pump cost.
As a full-service project: specification, build, delivery, installation, commissioning and operator handover, with 24-month warranty (extendable to 36) and Wi-Fi remote diagnostics. Lead times are project-dependent and confirmed in the proposal — engage us early so capacity lands when you need it.
Established producers industrialising a proven product — premium freeze-dried foods, ingredients, nutraceuticals or pet nutrition — who have outgrown batch machines and need predictable, validated, high-volume capacity. If you're still proving the product, we'll usually steer you to a commercial-class machine first and scale you up to this later.
