Rumpukuivain

Rumpukuivain is a type of industrial drying equipment used to remove moisture from bulk materials. It typically consists of a large, rotating cylindrical drum, often inclined at a slight angle. Wet material is fed into the upper end of the drum. As the drum rotates, the material tumbles and is exposed to a flow of hot air or gas, which evaporates the moisture. The dried material then exits from the lower end of the drum.

The tumbling action ensures that all particles of the material come into contact with the heated air, leading to efficient drying. The rotation speed of the drum and the temperature of the drying medium can be adjusted to suit the specific material being processed and the desired level of dryness. Rumpukuivain are commonly used in industries such as agriculture for drying grains and animal feed, mining for drying ore concentrates, and in the chemical industry for drying various powders and granules. The design of the drum and the internal lifters or baffles can be customized to enhance material flow and heat transfer. Maintenance typically involves inspecting the drum, bearings, and heating system.
