Drying

After all wet operations, articles need to be quickly and effectively dried to reduce possibility of staining/corrosion. Different types of equipment are available for this purpose, like conveyorised drying ovens for large components and basket/barrel configured dryers for smaller parts as well as centrifugal dryers.

• Automatic Dryer:
  • It follows a preset operating sequence, thereby reducing labour and ensuring consistent quality and higher productivity.
  • A self-contained unit, this dryer has its hydraulic aggregated control for sequential operation of all functions.
  • This can handle large loads per batch as compared to manual operations.
    
    
• Barrel Dryer:
  • This is recommended for specific components not amenable to drying by centrifugal action, or liable to be damaged during discharge into a centrifugal dryer.
  • Air heaters on either side of the barrel along with a circulation fan at the bottom create a steady flow of hot air over components in barrel, thus dry by evaporation.
    
    
• Manual Centrifuge Dryer:
  • It is operated through a foot pedal and incorporates a safety interlocking arrangement which prevents the top-lid from opening while in operation.
  • Adequate supply of hot air is provided by fully enclosed electrical heating elements mounted on the side of the machine.
  • Ideal for high single loads at frequent intervals.
    
    
• Auto Centrifugal Dryer:
  
  • Growel supplies a state-of-the-art on line centrifugal dryer with stainless steel basket, also used in passivation lines.
  • The lid opens with pneumatic cylinder & hot air is fed through a special blower with heating system.
  • The basket is static dynamically balanced & rotates for complete removal of water from components.
