Dri-Air desiccant dryers are used in the plastics processing industry to remove moisture from plastic pellets or other materials before they are used in the manufacturing process. Moisture can cause defects in the final product, so it is important to ensure that the material is dry before processing.

Dri-Air desiccant dryers work by using a desiccant material, such as silica gel, to absorb moisture from the air. The dryer contains two chambers, one for drying the material and the other for regenerating the desiccant. Air is drawn into the drying chamber and passed over the desiccant, which removes the moisture from the air. The dry air is then heated and circulated through the material to remove any remaining moisture. The moisture-laden air is then passed into the regeneration chamber, where it is heated to release the moisture from the desiccant, and the process repeats.

Dri-Air desiccant dryers are available in a variety of sizes and configurations to meet the needs of different applications. They can be used with a variety of materials, including PET, nylon, ABS, and polycarbonate. Dri-Air also offers custom configurations and accessories to meet specific customer requirements.
