CONVEYOR DRYERS

Our dryers come in four basic formats - and can be custom built to meet your dimension and drying needs.

Product enters and exits at opposite ends
Standard airflow is upward, downward airflow is optional for certain products
Models can be all, heat, all cool, or a combination of both
Optional airflow recycling (internally or externally)
Product depth of 2” to 12”
Highest air pressure is placed against wettest product at inlet end for best drying performance
Width 2’ to 8’ and Length 12’ to 50’ or more

SINGLE PASS DRYERS

TWO-PASS DRYERS

Multiple pass design increases air to product contact for improved efficiency
Product enters and exits at the same end of the system
Product is mixed as it drops into the proceeding pass for increased moisture uniformity
Standard airflow is upward
Models can be all heat, all cool, or a combination of heat and cool
Each convener is driven independently; product depth can be adjusted to compensate for product shrinkage, improve efficiency, and increases dwell time
Two pass design increases drying area without depleting floor space
Standard controls adjust airflow, product depth, dwell time, and air temperature
Product depth from 2” to 12”
Width 2’ to 8’ and Length 12’ to 50’ or more

MULTI-STAGE DRYERS

Connect any amount of single-stage models together to create a custom multi-pass and multi-stage configuration
Connection can be made in-line, stacked or in parallel
Custom connection helps meet unusual or difficult floor spaces and layouts
Easy to upgrade the capacity and efficiency of any existing drying system by adding an additional model

NEGATIVE AIR DRYERS AND COOLERS

Single or multiple pass available
Fan (cyclone on air outlet side only, for negative airflow though entire system
Ambient air cooling and/or convection drying with steam heat exchanges
Airflow upward or optional downward airflow on top pass of two-pass designs
Lower height profile designs for reduced head space areas
Standard fines removal of bottom flat floor
