Maximum performance for drum dryers: with our industrial gear unit solutions

The drum dryer is an industrial dryer that consists of a large cylindrical rotary tube. This is normally positioned on concrete struts or steel girders. The drum dryer has been used to dry various goods for decades and is commonly found in the construction material, minerals and raw materials industries. Direct contact with a heated gas reduces the moisture content of the processed material. The gas may also burn within the rotary drum for extremely heat-resistant materials, such as quartz sand. Combustion chambers are used for more sensitive materials, such as limestone, clay, recycled plastics or organic waste. Drum dryers are designed for solids with a throughput of 5 to 150 t/h.
