Early autumn is the season for eating donkey-hide gelatin, and it turns out steam generators play a role in its processing too!

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes seasonal wellness, and donkey-hide gelatin is the top choice for autumn tonics. As one of the “Three Treasures of Chinese Medicine” alongside ginseng and deer antler, every step in donkey-hide gelatin production—from boiling the hide to concentrating it into gelatin—is critical to its quality. Steam generators play an indispensable role in this process, providing stable support for gelatin production.During the critical stage of donkey hide boiling in the production of donkey-hide gelatin, extremely high stability in temperature and steam is required. Traditional heating methods often suffer from fluctuating temperatures, leading to incomplete extraction of effective components from the donkey hide and potentially damaging nutrients. Steam generators provide a continuous supply of stable high-temperature steam, ensuring the hides are simmered thoroughly under consistent thermal conditions. This approach maximizes the extraction of effective components like collagen while preventing temperature fluctuations from compromising the quality of the donkey hide gelatin, laying a solid foundation for subsequent concentration processes.Most finished donkey-hide gelatin products require sealed packaging to isolate them from air and moisture, preventing dampness and deterioration while extending shelf life. Certain packaging processes, such as heat-sealing, necessitate stable low-to-medium temperature steam to provide heat, ensuring tight and smooth seals. Steam generators precisely regulate steam temperature to the optimal range required for packaging. This prevents excessive heat from deforming or damaging packaging materials, or insufficient heat from causing weak seals and compromised integrity. Simultaneously, a stable steam supply ensures continuous operation of packaging lines, enhancing efficiency. This guarantees every finished donkey-hide gelatin product reaches consumers in a well-sealed state, fully preserving its nutritional value.It can be said that steam generators not only help enterprises boost production efficiency and ensure the consistent quality of donkey-hide gelatin, but also enable this time-honored tonic, cherished for millennia, to reach consumers in optimal condition. This allows people to enjoy the nourishment of traditional Chinese medicine during autumn tonic season while experiencing the reliable assurance modern equipment brings to this time-honored industry.
