Horizontal Vacuum Paddle Dryer

CAPACITIES: from 50L hasta 30.000L.
SUITABLE FOR THERMOSENSITIVE PRODUCTS

The Paddledry horizontal vacuum paddle dryer is a high efficiency dryer, specially designed for products with pseudo-plastic behaviour during the reaction and drying phase, with high torque requirements.

The principle of the Paddledry vacuum dryer is its operation through a body, shaft and blades which is fully heated to maximise heat exchange with its blades rotating very close to the wall at low speed for a continuous renewal of the product in direct exchange with the wall.
