Rotary Dryers

The Rotary Dryers that are classified as direct or indirect (air heating method), current or counter current (material air contact). While using the dryers the material should be dried and uniformly dispersed over the entire cross-section. These dyers can also be customized based on the properties of the material.


Features

  • Material is Passage through heated air
  • Dryer is driven through a girth gear and tyre arrangement
  • Minimum air leakage


Advantages

  • Low operating costs
  • Low maintenance costs
  • Ideally suited for high volumes
  • High thermal efficiency


These dryers are used to handle following material


  • Sand
  • Clays
  • Maize germs
  • Coal
  • Ore
  • Industrial sludge
