Finding an industry leading rotary dryer manufacturer can be a challenge. This presentation discusses some of the many factors that should be considered when choosing a rotary dryer manufacturer that fits your needs, including their ability to customize the rotary dryer to your process needs, their familiarity with materials, the quality of their dryers, as well as the ongoing support they provide.

1. Rotary Dryer Manufacturer
Experts in process design and material
processing for over 60 years.
Choosing An Industry Leading

2. A rotary dryer is a significant investment in any
operation. And as the backbone of many
industrial processes, efficiency, reliability, and
longevity are key to maintaining a successful
operation.

3. When looking to purchase a rotary dryer,
there are many things to consider in
selecting the right rotary dryer
manufacturer for you.

4. When looking to purchase a rotary dryer,
there are many things to consider in
selecting the right rotary dryer
manufacturer for you.
What follows are some of the key
considerations you should look at when
selecting an industry leading rotary dryer
manufacturer.

5. Flexibility in
Customization

6. The manufacturer’s ability to customize the
dryer to your needs is critical.

7. The manufacturer’s ability to customize the
dryer to your needs is critical.
A one-size-fits-all rotary dryer may seem like a
cost-effective option, but this approach does
not take into account the many factors that
can influence the drying process.

8. Factors such as material characteristics, the
processing environment, and desired end
product characteristics should all be designed
around in order to produce the most efficient
and reliable drying solution.

9. Material
Knowledge

10. The manufacturer should also be
experienced in processing a variety of
materials, but most importantly, they
should be experienced with the one you
intend to process.

11. The manufacturer should also be
experienced in processing a variety of
materials, but most importantly, they
should be experienced with the one you
intend to process.
Even the same type of material can have
differing characteristics when coming
from different sources, so a working
familiarity with that material is critical.

12. Characteristics such as bulk density,
moisture content, specific heat, and many
more, will all influence how the material
will behave in the dryer, and therefore,
how the dryer should be designed to work
with the material’s unique processing
needs in order to produce the desired
results in the most efficient way possible.

13. Manufacturers offering a testing facility are
especially beneficial, as they can test your
specific material with a variety of
configurations in order to work out process
variables and provide data for scale-up.

14. Quality
Fabrication

15. Rotary dryers are often expected to perform
reliably under demanding circumstances, and
are also commonly used to process tough
materials, such as aggregates, potash, or
chemicals.

16. Rotary dryers are often expected to perform
reliably under demanding circumstances, and
are also commonly used to process tough
materials, such as aggregates, potash, or
chemicals.
No matter what material you’re processing, a
well-built rotary dryer is a must.

17. A rotary dryer should be constructed of high
quality materials in order to provide years of
reliable processing. A flimsy rotary dryer will
likely not stand up to the rigors of processing
that rotary dryers must endure.

18. This is particularly true when working with
materials that are corrosive or abrasive.

19. This is particularly true when working with
materials that are corrosive or abrasive.
In cases such as these, various
customizations should be employed to
further protect the rotary dryer.

20. Ongoing
Support

21. Another critical aspect in choosing a rotary
dryer manufacturer, is that they provide
ongoing support after the sale.

22. Another critical aspect in choosing a rotary
dryer manufacturer, is that they provide
ongoing support after the sale.
Rotary dryers are relatively low maintenance,
but they do still require routine maintenance in
order to maintain efficient operation and
prolong the life of the dryer.

23. Training programs, installation services,
maintenance plans, spare parts, and
emergency services are all things that will be
integral to ensuring that your rotary dryer
performs reliably and efficiently for as long
as possible.

24. Having the original equipment manufacturer
available to perform these services is
especially beneficial, because they are the
most familiar with exactly what your particular
dryer needs in order to be best maintained.

25. Conclusion
Selecting an industry leading rotary dryer
manufacturer that fits your unique process
needs can seem overwhelming. However,
considerations such as those listed here can
help in narrowing down the decision, helping
you find the best rotary dryer manufacturer
for you.
