Kurimoto Continuous Band Type Through-flow Dryer
Product Made in Japan
Manufacturer: KURIMOTO
This dryer serves to layer materials up to 30 to 100 mm in thickness on the band comprised of wire mesh or perforated sheet and perform drying by feeding hot air from the top or the bottom at right angles to the materials layered.
Features
Evenly dried products are discharged.
This dryer is used to dry formed materials, enabling you to get homogeneous products with uneven drying diminished.
Products of low moisture content are discharged.
Extended contact time makes it possible to dry materials of high internal moisture up to considerably low moisture content.
Minimized material destruction
Materials are dried in a state of packed layer, enabling you to get products with minimized particle destruction.
Short drying time
Compared to concurrent-flow compartment dryers, you are able to finish drying step in far shorter period of time.
Reduced floor space for drying
Materials can be layered thick in a state of packed bed for shorter drying time, reducing the floor space required for drying as well as the volume of the equipment.
Diminished flying of materials
Materials are dried as they are left at rest to diminish their flying, enabling you to cut the costs of flue gas treatment.
Construction
The above figure shows an example of sludgy materials forming and drying system. Materials formed through the pelletizer are stacked in layers on the conveyor screen to enter the drying chamber, where the materials, while passing to the outlet, are dried with hot air forcibly ventilated from the top through the bottom of the material layers.
Application
Fibrous materials
Solids forming of sludgy materials
Calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate
Titanium oxide, white carbon, and carbon black
Synthetic resin pellets
