Bekaert’s is world’s leading suppliers of gas-fired / electrical infrared systems with integrated convection drying and one of their product is UniDryer®
UniDryer® V3 is a combination of infrared, air dryer in which high performance gas infrared emitters are substituted with high temperature and high velocity air nozzles. Because of the combination, there are results in a fast heat-up, a high evaporation rate and finally in better paper quality. UniDryer®V3 has an innovative convection system which consists of:
- A new type of blowing nozzle which consists of an amalgamation of slot impingement nozzles offering a most favorable convective heat transfer while sustaining the web runnability,
- A compressed design of recirculation fans with advanced air flows
- A new get through emitter: GemE emitter family.
The UniDryer® Efficiency can be improved even more by the help of ERS i.e. Energy Recovery System. It can be done by recirculating the ultimate exhaust air from the UniDryer® into an air dryer.
There are a few advantages of UniDryer®. Some of them include:
- It is of the most favorable quality,
- It has little operating and installation costs and
- It is highly flexible and easy for implementation.
