| |
The
Band Dryer is the most appropriate equipment for several fragile,
sticky or hard to dry products.
Principle of a Band Dryer:
The product to be processed will be distributed in an uniform layer
on the band conveyor by means of a suitable feeder i.e. oscillating
spreader, vibrating distributor, extruder, spreading screw, etc.
The band passes through a tunnel constituted by modular compartments
with individual heating and air circulation system.
Drying air is blown whether downward or upward or in a combined pattern
to get a homogeneous drying of the product.
