Scanair dehumidified drier designed and manufactured for demanding plastics injection molding hopper drier, food and pharmaceutical powder feeding hopper applications. We incorporate the latest in the industry leading design and control, packaged with enhanced features and higher performance engineering components. Frequently, the equipment used to package products will not function efficiently or properly if the surrounding air is humid. Candy wrapping machines and packaging machines for food powders or drug packets are typical examples. Something as simple as a cake mix becomes a double problem not only does the powdery mix clump and not flow properly in humid conditions, but the packaging equipment is also hindered by the humidity.

Depending on the product, it may be necessary to dry the packaging room and even go to the extreme of providing a dry bath for storage bins or hoppers, especially where powders are used.  In situations where packages are heat-sealed, a container’s own moisture content may adversely affect the adhesion of the sealing material being used. Here neither the product nor the machinery is directly responsible for the problem, instead the moisture content of the package is the culprit.  Surrounding the area with dry air is the solution.

Scanair Dehumidified Dryers are aesthetically designed to ensure highest quality, and efficient drying for the toughest of the hygroscopic resins. specializes in designing a wide range of dehumidifying plastics dryers, granular type to remove moisture from the toughest of hygroscopic plastics resins. The unique closed loop design guarantees consistent low dew points ranging from – 40˚C to – 65˚C for the best results.

The Scanair Mould Dehumidification System is an example of the innovation, based on market needs. The system designed exclusively to prevent mould sweating and ensures increased production through reduced cycle times. A chilled water pre-cooling coil combined with the latest in desiccant technology ensures super dry air.  This prevents mould condensation on injection molding machine. Eliminates mould sweating, improves cycle time, reduces scrap rate, Increases mould life can supply dry air to multiple machines portable easy to handle.

Dehumidified Dryers Application Areas.

Dehumidified Dryers are widely used in the following areas Wood drying, Leather Drying, Salt Drying, Laundry Drying, Latex Drying, Ceramic Drying, Mattress Drying, Paint Shop Drying, Tumble Drier, Fish Drying, Spices Drying, Mango Drying, Dhal Drying, Meat Drying.

Scanair humidity controlled chamber has been developed that helps to reduce colour loss and to produce high quality pods. The cardamom capsules are placed in the drying chamber, which is at a temperature of 40˚C to 50˚C relative humidity range from 20% to 40% RH should be maintained during the first two hours of drying, a traditional drying chamber cannot achieve these parameters. This is the most important part of the process as it affects the quality of the final product. It is important to dry the cardamom capsules as soon after harvest as possible to prevent the loss of flavor. It is also important that the drying process is as short as possible so that mould does not grow on the capsules and the bright green colour is retained.  The drying temperature should not be above 50˚C as this affects the colour and delicate flavor of the final product.  In most places, cardamom capsules with a good green colour can be sold for a premium price.

Humidity Controlled Chamber for Cardamom Drying

The moisture content of a fresh cardamom capsule is about 85%.  This needs to be reduced to 10% in the dried product so the cardamom capsules can be stored.  If the drying period is too long mould can start to grow on the cardamom. The same sort of lumping and caking of powdered substances previously discussed is also a major problem in the industrial chemical production.  Some chemicals decompose in the presence of water vapor.  In other situations, water vapor can actually cause a chemical reaction that changes the character of the product. Atmospheric moisture is also a natural enemy to many grinding and pulverizing operations.  Water vapor in contact with the product can make it resilient and difficult to grind in pharmaceutical production, causing it to cling to the grinding machine and defy pneumatic conveyance from one process area to another.

Humidity Controlled Chambers Application Areas

Humidity Controlled Chamber is widely used in Industrial drying, Pharmaceuticals, Laboratories, Candy Manufacturing, Fertilizers / Powder Storage Warehouses, Paint Booth and Paint Lines, Agriculture industries , Floriculture industries, Tissue Culture industries, Agricultural Produce Storage Buildings
