Pigment Drying System
Swamiraj Engineering has designed and developed cost effective system for Pigment drying which saves Energy & Valuable Time for drying the pigment, thereby reducing the overall cost for drying.
In conventional Pigment drying system, the wet cake from Filter Press cake is first collected in Trolleys and then from trolleys it is fed into Trays. These Trays are then loaded in Tray Dryer. Depending upon moisture content these Dryers will take any time from 24 Hrs to 40 Hours for Drying. To overcome this energy intense Pigment drying system, Swamiraj engineering has developed a drying system with Noodling of Pigment.
The New Pigment Drying system consists of following Equipments –
Belt Conveyor l Pigment Noodle Maker l Tray Dryer l Control Panel for the system
Belt Conveyor
The belt Conveyor is Placed below the Filter press Cake. The wet cake
discharged from the filter press is collected on the Belt conveyor.
The belt conveyor then transfers the wet cake into the Noodle Making
Machine.
Pigment Noodle Extruder
The Pigment Noodle Extruder Machine is used to make Noodles from the wet
cake received from filter press through the belt conveyor. The working
principle of noodle extruder is wet cake getting pressed at a very high
pressure in between oscillating shaft & extruder Plate, resulting in formation of noodles from bottom of extruder plate. The oscillating shaft oscillates to & fro on extruder plate powered by Hydraulic Power pack to develop high pressure. The out Put Noodles are collected in Tray kept below the noodler. TheseTrays are manually transferred to Tray dryer. The volume of Tray is about 10 Liters. Two trays are placed below the Noodler
The pigment noodle extruders are available in varying capacities from 500
kgs/Hr to 1000Kgs/Hr of Wet Cake Noodles, and are available in SS304
Grade of material.
Tray Dryer
A tray Dryer is an enclosed insulated chamber in which trays are placed
on top of each other in trolleys. Tray Dryer are extensively used for
drying the pigment wet cake / Pigment Noodles. The material to be
dried (Noodles) are placed in the trays. Heat transfer is by circulation of
hot air by electric heaters or steam in radiator coils. Blower fans are
installed inside to ensure proper circulation and transfer of heat. A
control panel to control the temperature and other parameters is
provided outside the dryer. These dryers are available in SS304 from
inside for all contact Parts & External is in MS.
