Vertical mixers and dryers

Vertical dryers

Vertical dryers 20 - 25.000 litres
Design with single or double helix or as centre tube screw mixer
The right choice for every application

AVA conical mixers and dryers have been developed for short process times with maximum product protection. With the HVW series dryer variants, the product is moved along the length of the heated drum wall. There is an additional option to heat the shaft and helix. This serves to increase the heat transfer by several times. The result is: advantageous short drying times which can be further reduced by means of a vacuum.

System with many advantages
  • Drying temperatures from –20° to 350° C
  • Heat distribution media: steam, thermal oil, water
  • Coolant: Brine solution or water
  • Temperature transfer by means of cylinder jacket, half-pipe, shaft and helix
  • Materials: high-carbon steels to high-quality stainless steels, e.g. Hastelloy
  • Pressure in products and in heating chamber: -1 to +40 bar
  • GMP and CIP variants, conforming to FDA
  • Especially gentle homogenisation by means of double-thread mixing helix.
  • Low rotational speeds in comparison to other systems
  • Large heating surface and shortened drying times by design
  • Large operational volume spectrum and optimal residual emptying
  • Very good evaporation performance
  • Evaporation processes almost continuously controllable
  • Special pharmaceutical designs available
Application specials
  • Permanent blending and intensive contact between the product and the heated wall ensure for an above-average heat transfer.
  • Suitably designed agitators make the plant ideal for concentrating liquids and sludge.
  • The agitator can be heated and shaped in such a way that an extremely high evaporation performance can be achieved.
  • A lifting column can be used either to move the entire device, to lift the cover with agitator or to lower the mixing container. The lifting column also facilitates filling and emptying in tight spaces.
