Controlled and uniform drying is a critical process step in industries where product stability, moisture content, and quality consistency are tightly regulated. The Air Tray Dryer from Technogen Enterprise is engineered to deliver efficient, hygienic, and energy-optimized drying performance for manufacturers operating in Great Britain. Designed for batch drying of powders, granules, intermediates, and solid materials, this dryer ensures repeatable results across pharmaceutical, food, chemical, textile, and research applications.
As an experienced manufacturer and supplier, Technogen Enterprise develops Air Tray Dryers that combine robust construction, precise temperature control, and GMP-compliant design for dependable long-term operation.
An Air Tray Dryer is a batch-type drying system that removes moisture from materials using forced circulation of heated air. The product is spread uniformly on trays arranged inside a thermally insulated chamber. Hot air flows across each tray, enabling controlled evaporation of moisture without damaging product characteristics.
This drying method is widely used where gentle, uniform, and predictable drying is required.
The Air Tray Dryer operates on the principle of convective heat transfer.
Air Heating
Fresh air is heated using electric heaters or steam coils to the desired temperature.
Forced Air Circulation
High-performance fans circulate hot air uniformly across all trays.
Moisture Evaporation
Heat transfers to the product surface, evaporating moisture in a controlled manner.
Moist Air Exhaust
Moisture-laden air is expelled, while fresh heated air is continuously introduced.
Temperature Regulation
A digital temperature controller maintains precise drying conditions throughout the cycle.
This process ensures uniform drying without over-drying or localized overheating.
Technogen Enterprise Air Tray Dryers are engineered for durability, hygiene, and energy efficiency.
