5-Stage Conveyor Dryer

 

Technical Specifications & Business Insights

Product Overview:

The 5-Stage Conveyor Dryer is designed for continuous drying applications, ensuring uniform moisture removal across multiple drying zones. It is ideal for food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and essential oils, offering precise temperature control, adjustable airflow, and energy-efficient drying.

Common Applications:

✅ Food Industry: Grains, nuts, spices, fruit slices, vegetables, pasta, snacks. ✅ Pharmaceuticals: Herbal extracts, medicinal powders, gelatin, probiotics. ✅ Essential Oils & Chemicals: Encapsulated flavors, fragrances, pigments, polymers.

Working Principle:

  1. Loading Stage: The wet material is fed onto the first conveyor belt.

  2. Multi-Zone Drying: The material moves through five drying stages, each with independent temperature & airflow control.

  3. Hot Air Circulation: Heated air passes through the material, evaporating moisture efficiently.

  4. Moisture Exhaust: Each stage has exhaust vents to remove humid air.

  5. Final Cooling & Discharge: The dried product exits the last stage, ready for packaging.
