Working Principle

Plastic granules are automatically conveyed through the central vacuum system into the drying hoppers.

Lodpfxjy Udfyj Aikerl
The MOTAN ADC 200/10 dry air generator produces low-humidity hot air which continuously circulates through the material inside the hoppers.

During this process, moisture is removed from the plastic granules to prepare the material for injection molding production.

After drying, the material is automatically transported through the central conveying lines and distributed to the connected injection molding machines.

All drying and conveying processes are centrally controlled via the MOTAN LA net 200 control system

Condition

The system was in production operation until dismantling.
