Dry Hopper

The dry hopper adopts a vertical design, featuring easy operation and convenient maintenance. This vertical dry hopper is user-friendly for both operation and maintenance, meeting the daily needs of factory production lines.The capacity of the dry hopper is selectable, with 1-2 ton models always in stock for customers to choose from. Common dry hopper capacities include 1 ton and 2 ton, which are readily available to meet urgent procurement requirements of relevant enterprises.The dry hopper is easy to clean, ensures uniform mixing, and has a fast drying speed, which helps save costs. It boasts advantages such as low investment, quick return on investment, small floor space, labor saving, and high efficiency—ideal for factory owners and procurement teams seeking cost-effective drying solutions.Customization is available: the dry hopper can be customized according to the height requirements of the customer's workshop, and the material is selectable, with carbon steel or stainless steel available for production. This customizable dry hopper fits different workshop layouts, and stainless steel options are suitable for industries with high hygiene requirements like food and chemical.It is suitable for industries including pipe and profile production, plastic building materials, plastic dyeing, granulation and pelletizing, plastic granulation, masterbatch manufacturing, plastic modification, recycled material recycling and processing, large-scale injection molding, chemical industry, and food industry. This multi-industry dry hopper meets the drying needs of various plastic and chemical processing enterprises.

Working Principle of Drying Silo:

The drying silo operates by using the high-speed rotation of the screw to lift raw materials from the center of the barrel bottom to the top, then the materials are thrown and scattered in an umbrella shape and fall back to the bottom. In this way, the raw materials roll up and down and are stirred in the barrel, and a large amount of raw materials can be uniformly mixed in a short time—ensuring efficient material processing for production lines.Meanwhile, hot air is blown out from the center of the lower end of the barrel to the surroundings, and smoothly penetrates upward through the gaps of the moving raw materials to carry out a comprehensive heat exchange dynamic drying process. This dynamic drying technology of the drying silo ensures thorough drying of raw materials and improves production efficiency.

Maintenance of Dry Hopper:

• Provide good lubrication and sealing for bearings to extend the service life and operation rate of the dry hopper. Proper bearing maintenance ensures long-term stable operation of the dry hopper, reducing downtime for production lines.
• Frequently check the newly installed hoops to prevent loosening. Regular inspection of the dry hopper's components ensures safe operation and avoids potential production accidents.
• Check whether all components of the dry hopper are working normally. Routine inspection of the dry hopper helps identify and resolve minor issues in a timely manner, ensuring continuous production.
• Pay attention to the wear degree of vulnerable parts and be ready for replacement at any time. Preparing spare parts for the dry hopper's vulnerable parts minimizes production interruption caused by component failures.
• When the oil temperature of the bearing is high, immediately stop the dry hopper, check the cause, and handle the fault. Timely handling of abnormal conditions of the dry hopper protects the equipment and ensures the safety of operators.
• If there is an impact sound when the rotating gear of the dry hopper is running, immediately stop the machine, check, and handle the fault. Prompt fault handling of the dry hopper's gear system avoids further damage to the equipment.
