Key Features of the Infrared Rotary Dryer

Sustainable Energy Efficiency: Reduce your energy consumption by up to 50%, aligning with green operational standards. This is a significant improvement over the 10-15% savings seen with conventional drying methods.
Rapid Processing: Decrease your processing time by half, completing tasks in roughly 2 hours. Traditional dryers typically take 4-6 hours, making our solution far more efficient.
Consistent Quality: Benefit from uniform thermal distribution, simultaneous crystallization, and drying. This ensures unparalleled quality across all production batches.
Versatile Material Processing: Expertly handle a diverse range of plastic materials, from PET to polypropylene and more.
When compared to standard drying techniques, the Infrared Rotary Dryer clearly offers superior performance and efficiency.

Innovative Infrared Technology

Move beyond traditional hot air transfer methods. Our Infrared Rotary Dryer leverages advanced infrared technology to guarantee uniform heating of both internal and external particles, delivering precise and consistent thermal distribution.

Item	IRD Dryer	Traditional Dryer
Transfer medium	None	Hot air
Heat transfer	Both inside & outside particles together.	From outside to inside particle gradually.
Energy	Save at least 20~50% energy compared to traditional dryer.	Consume much energy.
Process time	1. Crystallization & drying: They are processedsimultaneously within about 8~15 minutes. 2. Drying again: About 1~1.5 hours.	1. Crystallization: About 30~60 minutes. 2. Drying: About 4~6 hours.
Moisturecontent	1. Under 100~500 PPM after IRD processed. 2. Under 50 PPM after about 1~1.5 hoursdehumidifier processed again.	1. Spend 30~60 minutes to change amorphous PET to crystallized PET first. 2. Under 200PPM after about 4 hours dehumidifier processed. 3. Under 50 PPM after about more than 6 hoursdehumidifier processed.
Lead time	Less than 15 minutes or no more than 1.5 hours.	More than 6 hours.
Material changeover	1. Easy & faster. 2. There are only 1~1.5 times capacity ofmaterial hourly consumption in the bufferhopper.	1. Difficult & slowly. 2. There are 5~7 times capacity of material hourlyconsumption in the crystallizer & hopper.
Operation	Simple	It is difficult such as it must put a little crystallized PET in the crystallizer when beginning operation.
Maintenance	1. Simple. 2. Lower maintenance cost.	1. Difficult. 2. Higher maintenance cost.
