SUPER MULTI DRYING
HEAT EFFICIENCY 4 TIMES HIGHER THAN TRADITIONAL DRYERS
The heat transfer speed is very fast because the velocity at which the ingredient is moved to the heating panel is also quite high, at 10~30 m/s. However, if the evaporating speed is lower than the speed of heat transfer, the material cannot dry because the heat/calories are stored in the ingredient.
Let’s take a look at the picture below. The Okadora dryer pushes the ingredient against the heating panel in the form of a thin layer. This spreading of the ingredient on the heating surface means that it is possible to achieve almost the same ratio for heating and evaporating, or even a bit higher with evaporating.
In the case where heating and evaporating are simultaneous processes, then it is possible to achieve remarkable drying efficiency. With the traditional dryer, on the other hand, there is a time difference between heating and evaporating and this causes a build-up of calories in the ingredient, which cannot radiate in a uniform way.
It is therefore clear, when it comes to heat efficiency, the traditional drying apparatus just can’t compete with Okadora.
NON-NECESSITY OF SORTING FOREIGN PARTICLES
Due to the simplicity of structure of the vessel and also the innovative design applied to the gap between the fins and the heating panel, the Okadora dryer does not have the problem of catching foreign material, such as vinyl, wrapping tray etc. which may be mixed with raw garbage. (Nevertheless, it is necessary to ensure that the volume of foreign matter is not large.)
EXPANSION IS EASY
Because of the vertical-type design and the use of centrifugal force to drive the material against the heating panel, it is easy to control the amount of the dried product. Thus the expansion of the installation can be made step by step, according to a production plan. This obviates the need to build a larger plant at the initial stage according to some future production estimate.
