What’s inside?

ACI’s Standard Cable Drying System is a self-contained, blower-driven unit that uses precisely controlled air flow that reduces noise and dramatically cuts energy consumption.

It works by closely focusing powerful angled air jets against the flow of the product.  These air jets are opposing, and aim at the top and bottom of the product to hold back the advancing residual moisture.  This is achieved by breaking the surface tension of the water, allowing it to gather and be stripped from the product.

Soft edged flexible rubber baffles then form a torturous path to help catch and contain the resultant spray preventing it exiting the enclosure to avoid causing potential water related H&S issues.

The removed water drains from the enclosure which could be piped back into the system to save costs and improve processes.  The baffles are able to flex enough to allow knots and other line impurities to pass without consequence, along with the sprung loaded plenums which house the air jets.

 

The Power Pack

The high-velocity air is supplied to the system by a 3kW, direct-drive multi stage blower which offers quiet operation (76dB(A)). The blower is supplied with an inverter drive as standard and comes pre-fitted in an ABS enclosure.
