The primary function of the rotary vacuum paddle dryer is to dry heat-sensitive products, whether they are pharmaceutical products or chemical products. The RVPD assures uniform drying, which ultimately results in a final output that passes quality tests. Therefore, it is an integral part of the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, as well as other processing industries. It has eight components that carry out a seamless drying process. Let's learn about the components.


Cylindrical Vessel

This component comprises the main body of the machine, which is a cylindrical vessel where the chemical material is dried and further processed.


Large-Diameter Hollow Shaft

The hollow shaft, generally situated at the center of the machine, extends to connect with the paddles, providing the necessary support for their rotation.


Jacket or Limpet Coil

To conduct the drying of the material within the cylindrical vessel, a jacket or limpet coil is used. This jacket or coil surrounds the cylindrical vessel, achieving indirect heating of the material.


Paddles

Connected to the shaft, these hollow paddles feature scraper blades that maintain continuous movement and rotation. This rotation serves two primary purposes: first, to prevent overheating and ensure even drying of the material from all sides, while also preventing material from sticking to the internal surfaces.


Hard Facing of the Shaft:

The shaft is reinforced with a durable protective layer applied to specific areas of the rotating rod inside the machine. This protective layer improves the durability and longevity of these parts.


Cooling Mechanism

Within the cooling system, the machine circulates water, brine, or refrigerants from the jacket and hollow shaft. This mechanism not only assists in controlling the temperature inside the dryer but also cools the material when necessary.


Nitrogen Purging

This component is responsible for maintaining the required temperature and atmosphere within the dryer, thus preventing contamination or undesired reactions.


Bag Cleaning Arrangement:

This component is important for thorough cleaning using a nitrogen jet injector and a pulsation system.


All these components work cohesively to efficiently dry and process materials while maintaining the integrity of products in chemical and pharmaceutical operations, where precision, texture, and temperature are crucial. It's imperative to source the highest-quality RVPD from a trusted rotary vacuum paddle dryer manufacturer like Thermosag.


Given Thermosag's diverse client base, spanning from chemical and petrochemical to food and beverage, textiles, paper and pulp, and more, they possess a competitive advantage. Their ability to meet various requirements and cater to different industries makes them the ideal choice for sourcing your first RVPD.
