Dryers

These equipments are used to dry the wet components that come out of the Vibratory Finishing Machine / Centrifugal High Energy Finishing Machine thus preventing the components from corrosion. Suitable drying media is used to absorb the moisture from the components

  
These are broadly classified into three types
• Vibratory Dryers
• Rotary Dryers
• Drying Ovens

Vibratory Dryers


Click to enlarge
The UNIQUE ELLIPTICAL SHAPE VIBRATORY BOWL DRYING MACHINE gives extra drying area with less floor space than conventional dryers. Simple to operate, these highly efficient machines are constructed with a component separation/discharge facility.

The work chamber is constructed from a metal spinning and built up to the required depth to give an extremely robust unit

Suitable for IN LINE or BATCH work the machine can be used for DRYING and/or FINE POLISHING using Maizorb as a media. The Acton Self Clean Dust Extractor can be added as a factory fitted extra.

Bowl type vibratory dryers are available in three standard sizes to enhance your finishing needs.

Drying Ovens
A new addition to the range of machines manufactured and supplied by ActOn Finishing is the Conveyorised Electrically Heated Drying Oven which is ideally suited for the larger components.

The standard work chamber length of 2 metres and a normal operating temperature of 60-80 degrees centigrade gives ample time for the components to be dried by forced air.
