The Roto-Shell™ is an economical, high volume dryer or cooler. It can be used to process a wide variety of products for the food, chemical, and mineral industries.
As the Roto-Shell rotates, lifters raise the product and cascade into the airstream. The air stream runs along the center of the drum. When operating as a dryer, the air is heated using natural gas, propane, oil, or steam coils. Where high temperature is acceptable, direct fired burners are used.
FMC Technologies custom designs Roto-Shells to meet specific processing requirements. Drums can be fabricated of mild steel, alloy steel, or nickel alloys to suit the corrosive or abrasive characteristics of your product.
Applications for the Roto-Shell are any bulk free flowing material that can tolerate rougher handling. Examples of applications are:
-
Food
-
Cereal Pellets
-
Sugar
-
Snack Food Pellets
-
Chemicals
-
