Spiral dryer
Drying Systems For Small components
• Consistent and efficient drying
• Boost output and reduce energy costs
• Easily fit into the production line, no costly downtime
ACI’s Spiral Drum Component Dryer is a compact and efficient drying system that allows for continuous in-line surface drying of small and/or light components.
The system comprises a single helix rotating drum constructed from perforated stainless steel, mounted horizontally.
Parts enter the drum via a simple chute whereupon they are exposed to a blower-driven air knife which is suspended in the centre of the drum.
ACI’s Spiral Drying Systems are based upon the company’s blower-powered Air Knives. Blower power and air knife configurations are designed to match specific requirements regarding line speeds and product sizes.

HOW IT WORKS
The combination of the tumbling motion of the product, and the powerful, high-velocity air stream produced by the air knife, means that emerging parts/components are dried both efficiently and effectively. Once parts/components have been dried they can simply be collected manually or passed onto another process.
The blower supplying the air knife system can be remotely sited or mounted directly on top of the dryer itself.
Our extensive R&D facilities enable customers to evaluate the effectiveness and suitability of our products thoroughly.
