FLAKER DRUM / DRUM DRYER

TECHNICAL ADVANTAGES:

1) High heat efficiency: Heat loss is mainly caused thermal radiation. Heat efficiency can be as high as 90%.

2) Short drying time: The drying process only takes 10-15 seconds. So drum dryer can be used for drying heat sensitive material.

3) Uniform drying: Heat transfer direction and coefficient all over the drum surface are the same. And wet material can be evenly spread over the drum surface. Wet material can be uniformly dried.

4) Long life span: Rotary drum is electro-polished and well heat treated to increase the smoothness and hardness.

5) Flexible application: Drum surface temperature, rotating speed, wet material film thickness is all adjustable to satisfy materials with different moisture and drying time.

6) Compact size: The drying chamber is very compact in size. Only need small installation space.

7) Low operation cost: The whole machine is very simple and reliable. It can be used for many years with little repair and maintenance.

8) Highest hygienic standard: Indirect heating and electro-polished drum surface can assure highest hygienic working conditions.

Description

Flakers Drum convert molten liquid chemical into solid flakes. This is achieved by forming a thin layer of molten chemical on the outside surface of a rotating drum and causing this to be solidified by spraying cold water from inside the surface of the drum. An adjustable scraper continuously removes the solid paste from the drum surface in flake forms.

Drum Dryers are similar to the flakers except that in these Single Drum Dryers, the inner surface instead of being sprayed with cold water is heated with steam. This results in heating of the drum and removes the excess moisture from the molten chemicals which after scraping results in a dried powdery product.

The material flaked/dried is collected through a chute or a conveyor. The required size of the flakes can be adjusted by controlling the speed of the drum through a VFD, the temperature of the product, the dip level of the drum in the molten chemical or by controlling the temperature of the cooling/drying medium.

Type of Feed Mechanisms:

  • Single Drum Flaker- Bottom Dip Feed
