The drying of hygroscopic polymers with compressed air is the most economical alternative for small throughputs compared to other drying systems.
The special ERD compressed air technology from FASTI KOCH ensures excellent drying results while keeping operating costs low.
The result: continuous drying performance, maximum reliability, easy handling and a small required space.
Since 2010, the FASTI brand has had its headquarter in Ispringen. The proven plastic pellet dryers get designed and more developed there.
You can take a FASTI-KOCH pellet dryer for that:
The FASTI-KOCH units are manufactured in the dryer manufacture of KOCH-TECHNIK in Germany.
FASTI KOCH – Polymer drying directly on top the processing machine
Our ERD compressed air technology is a proven process for drying plastic pellets. The ERD compressed air technology guarantees perfect drying results along with low operating costs and an almost maintenance-free drying process.
FASTI-KOCH pellet dryers are suitable for the pre-drying directly on top each injection moulding machine or extruder.
The dryers are installed on the draw-in zone of the machines and dry the plastic material directly before the processing. Thus, the pellets stay warm and dry and are not rehumidified.
FASTI KOCH ERD Xpert + – Polymer drying directly on top the processing machine
ERD compressed air technology: On the operation end, the pre-dried compressed air (6–10 bars) is released through a proportional valve. The valve is controlled proportionally according to the input pressure to reach a constant air quantity and a deep dew point. The released air is then heated to the drying temperature and flows into the lower part of the material hopper. The drying air flows upwards through the pellets and takes the moisture from them.
The ERD Xpert+ pellet dryer is ideal for small to medium throughputs of raw materials that must be processed with a constant degree of drying:
Intelligent clip-on technology: The pilot module is easy to remove. It can be attached to the processing machine if there is a lack of space.
Simple and clear control via a touch panel:
ERD Micro+: Our most compact pellet dryer with ERD compressed air technology
The ERD technology guarantees perfect drying results and very low operating costs also with our ERD Micro+.
On the operation end, the pre-dried compressed air (6–10 bars) is released to the atmospheric pressure. Dry process air with a very low dew point is generated in this manner. It is introduced into the glass drying container heated and flows through the pellets, thus removing any moisture.
The ERD Micro+ was specially developed for micro injection moulding or mini extruders:
