Industrial dryers are among the most important pieces of equipment in the industrial processing industry to eliminate water and moisture from the materials. Industrial dyers are used for different applications like in pharmaceuticals, textile, packaging industry, ceramics, food processing, paper drying, and more.

Industrial dryers range in size from small batch units to large conveyor types and specifications suitable for the industry they serve.

Industrial dryer design must be focused on maintaining the physical, chemical, or biological aspects of the material that is being processed, drying uniformity, energy efficiency, and process control. Some can even be amended in different industrial applications.

Developments in industrial dryer design allow continued production of the best results in the processed materials. These developments overcome the drying challenges for time and energy efficiency advances.

Industrial drying solutions for different applications

• Laboratory scale industrial dyers are suitable for laboratory experiments or small productions. Lab-scale dryers are for pre-heating, processing of chemical, and high-temperature processing.
• Batch type industrial dyers are built with solidness and basic drying function. The dyer chambers are designed to accomplish uniform warming and fitting doors for loading and unloading of materials to be dried. Rotary drying, drum drying, and tray drying are the typical applications of batch scale dyers.
• Continuous types of dryers are best suited for continuous processes. These do not require manual feeding. Conveyor industrial dryers carefully monitor and control the temperature. Conveyors gently dry materials by controlling the conditions in each zone. In each zone, humidity, temperature, and airflow can be adjusted to manage the rate of drying. Conveyor dryers are typically used in paper drying, textile drying, ceramic industries, packaging industries, and pharmaceutical application.

Industrial dryers’ maintenance

Preventive maintenance is an essential aspect of dryer operation. Keeping an industrial dryer in top shape is an utmost priority. Keeping the equipment in working condition is a must for it to function efficiently and maintain high reliability. Regular use of an industrial dryer can lead to wear and tear or potential outage which can cause production and profit loss.

A regular check-up and maintenance must be established. Regular inspections must be done by a certified and qualified engineering expert to inspect and foresee mechanical and systemic failure. Preventive maintenance eliminates or at least reduces downtime.

Since drying is a key process in the majority of industrial processes, it should be carefully designed to last for long term use.

From the design, material used, energy consumption, and ease of use, these must be properly incorporated without affecting the functionality, chemical, and physical property of the material.

Finding a Manufacturer

After the design and function features, also consider going for an industrial dryer manufacturer with proven customer support. Always go for a reputable manufacturer that can provide long term customer and product support.

Pick an industrial dryer manufacturer that can promptly arrange parts and services, product pieces of training for operators and staff. Look for a manufacturer with years of experience in industrial processing. 

Take advantage of the advanced features and latest designs in the industrial dryer and make sure it is the ideal match for your product.
