Witte Vibrating Fluid Bed Dryers showcase the company's signature vertical air flow engineering. Featuring a porous conveying surface set within an enclosed vibrating vessel, Witte designs promote heat transfer air or gas to pass up vertically through the product, creating the high degree of fluidization that promotes maximum air contact with the product surface.
Drying while the product gradually moves forward toward the discharge, Witte Dryers gently handle virtually any product from the most delicate snack chip to the heaviest rock product while assuring particle integrity and ultimately meeting your tightest drying specifications.
Witte Design:
Air distribution cage uses static pressure buildup rather than baffles, permitting uniform control of air velocity over the entire conveying surface
Wedge wire conveying surface features triangular profile wires with a thin, tapered slot, providing seven times more open area than the typical drilled deck and delivering superior heat exchange
Every six foot increment of Dryer length features independent controls for air temperature and velocity, including a cooling zone, if desired
Controlled exhaust air assures uniform vertical air flows and eliminates the high, horizontal air currents near the bed that disturb the material flow
Automatic weirs provide unprecedented control of bed depth and/or retention time without product degradation
Entire Dryer is accessed and cleaned by one man by releasing the clamps, engaging the cover lift hooks and raising the cover with the convenient hand winch
Sanitary stainless steel designs with continuously welded seams available to meet USDA, FDA and 3-A standards and regulations
Material which enters first, leaves first
