Infrared dryer PET-Booster®

rotary drumcontinuousfor the chemical industry

Category: IRD - Infrared dryer Continuous crystallization and drying of PET in minutes instead of hours with significantly lower energy consumption Heating. Crystallization. Drying. Field of applications. Heating. Heating granules and regrind material prior to further processing (e.g. PVC, PE, PP,…) inter alia to improve the throughput in the extrusion. Crystallization. Crystallisation of PET (Bottleflakes, granules, flakes), PET masterbatch, co-PET, PBT, PEEK, PLA, PPS, etc. Drying. Drying of plastic granules, and –ground material (e.g. PET, PBT, ABS/PC, HDPE, LCP, PC, PP, PVB, WPC, TPE, TPU) as well as other free-flowing bulk materials. High input moisture. Drying processes with high varying input moisture >1%. Retrofitting: With existing plants, a quick 30% increase in throughput can be realized with the installation of the PET-BOOSTER®. Diverse. Thermal processes for the removal of rest oligomeren and volatile components. Toxic liquid precipitate from the vacuum system is reduced by up to 50%. Function IRD. Infrared. Heat into the core. The energy is instantaneously brought into the core of the product by short-wave infrared radiation. Inside to the outside. The heat flow pushes the moisture from the inside towards the outside of the product. Discharge moisture. After the moisture has been released from the material it is directly discharged by the air circulation inside the machine. Always in motion. Rotation. The rotation of the drum ensures constant movement of the material. Evenly. The spiral coils and mixing elements designed for your product ensure an optimal mix of material and avoids clumping. Your product is evenly heated.
