Continuous Plate Dryer

Continuous Plate Dryer

Descriptions
The PLG series continuous plate dryer is a highly efficient and effective piece of drying equipment. The compact structure of the plate dryer not only saves space in your facility but it also helps facilitate the drying process through its high heat distribution with minimal energy consumption. It is often found in the production facilities of chemical, pharmaceutical, agrichemical and food enterprises.

The drying device comes in three types, normal pressure, closed, and vacuum. The machine can be constructed from carbon steel and stainless steel for contact parts, steam pipes, the main shaft and body. With a drying area of 4-180 m2, the drying units have a significantly large capacity. We also produce various auxiliary devices that can be added to make the machine more suitable for even more applications.

Process
The continuous plate press works by feeding the material into the top drying layer where the mixture will be stirred by harrows on a rotating arm and heat will be applied. The material flows through the surface of the drying plate along the helical structure. Material on the exterior edge of the plate drops down onto the drying plate below. It is then moved inward and drops down a central hole to the small plate on the next layer. The plates alternate between large and small as the material drops further down so as to adequately mix the material as it dries. The dried product is finally discharged from the bottom layer at the discharge port.

The continuous plate dryer uses saturated steam, hot water or conduction oil to transfer heat to the drying chamber. All of the evaporated moisture from the material is discharged by vacuum and sent through an exhaust port in the top cover. The drying quality of the device can be increased by adding supplementary devices such as a finned heater, condenser (for solvent recovery), bag dust filter, suction fan, etc.

Features
1. Simple control, wide application
(1) By regulating the thickness of materials, rotating speed of the main shaft, number of harrow arms, type and size of harrow, the user can achieve the ideal drying effect.
(2) Each layer of drying plate can be fed with hot or cold media individually to heat or cool materials accurately and easily.
(3) Operating time can be precisely adjusted to receive the desired finished product.
(4) Single flowing direction of materials without return flowing and mixing Uniform Drying, steady quality and no need for remixing.
2. Easy and simple operation
(1) Startup and shutdown of the continuous plate dryer is easy.
(2) After material feeding is stopped, the material inside dryer can be discharged fully by harrows.
(3) Careful cleaning and observation is possible through the large-scale viewing window.
3. Low energy consumption
(4) The low speed of the main shaft and the low amount of materials handling at any given time lead to a low level of energy consumption.
(5) High heating efficiency.
4. Outstanding operating condition
(6) Normal pressure type: minimal air flow within the plate dryer prevents dust that forms at the end of the process from rising through the layers and leaking from the top of the device.
(7) Closed type: equipped with a solvent recovery device that can recover organic solvents moist-carrier gases. The device has a high recovery rate, and nitrogen can be used as a moist-carrier gas in closed circulation for materials subject to burning, explosion and oxidation as well as poisonous vapors.
(8) Vacuum type: if the plate dryer is operating under a vacuum state, it is particularly suitable for drying heat sensitive materials.
5. Easy installation and small occupying area.
(9) As the dryer is delivered whole, it is quite easy to install and configure on site.
(10) As drying plates are arranged by layer and installed vertically, it occupies a small area but still has a large working capacity.
