Information
Freeze Dryer LEO-007
LEO-007 is built for people who are already producing, not just experimenting. It takes the same core technology as the LEO-004 and scales it up with a larger chamber, more total shelf area and higher throughput per run. You get a stainless steel machine with integrated vacuum pump and fully automatic freeze to dry cycle. This is a serious tool for small producers selling real product and for kitchens developing items for retail.
Benefits
- ✔ Higher batch capacity than the LEO-004. Around 7 kg fresh load per run means more finished product per cycle and better production flow.
- ✔ More trays and more total surface area so you can lay out fruit, meat, meals or sweets efficiently.
- ✔ Full process control. Shelves do both deep freeze and controlled heat stages so you do not need a separate freezer step.
- ✔ Food safe stainless build. The chamber, shelves and condenser are all stainless steel for easy cleaning and hygiene.
- ✔ Remote visibility. Live data, camera feed and monitoring over WiFi or LAN so you do not have to stand next to the unit during a run.
- ✔ Commercial grade result. Crisp, stable, low moisture product with long shelf life and strong flavour retention.

FAQ
Who should choose the LEO-007 instead of the LEO-004
Choose the LEO-007 if you are already selling product or planning to. If you are producing freeze dried candy, fruit snacks or full meal packs for customers, the extra capacity per run will matter to you.
Do I need an external vacuum pump
No. The vacuum system is integrated. This is a single self contained production unit, not a stack of loose boxes.
Can I run it overnight
Yes. The machine is designed for continuous duty. Many users load in the evening, run at night and pack finished product in the morning.
Is cleaning difficult
No. The working area is stainless and built for food contact. You can wipe down trays and interior surfaces between runs.
Who buys this unit
The LEO-007 is for people who are already turning product into revenue.
- Small food producers and farm shops selling under their own label.
- Online sellers and food trucks who need stable, long shelf life items with high margin.
- Outdoor and preparedness brands where weight, flavour and storage stability define the product.
This is the size for people planning to earn money from freeze dried product, not just stock their own pantry.
How to start your own production
- Choose your raw material. Fruit, berries, sweets, cooked meals, premium ingredients.
- Run controlled test batches. Decide what will be your signature product.
- Package correctly. Airtight pouches and clean labelling add real retail value.
- Do the math. Compare raw cost, dry yield and target sell price.
- Build your brand. Name, design, trust. People are buying you, not only the food.
