A method for drying panels in a drying device includes first and second stages. Each stage has levels, and each panel is placed on surfaces formed at different levels and guided through the drying device in each level. In the first stage, the panels are brought into contact with drying air with a high temperature and are dried, and in the second stage, the panels are dried using drying air with a lower temperature. The support surface in the levels of the first stage for placing the panels is smaller than the support surface in the second stage, and the panels are guided in the second stage at a second speed which is lower than the first speed in the first stage, wherein the product of the first support surface and the first speed is equal to the product of the second support surface and the second speed.
Method for drying panels in a drying device comprising a first stage and a second stage, wherein the two stages each have levels and the panels are each placed on surfaces formed in levels and are passed through the drying device in the respective levels of the two stages, wherein the panels are brought into contact with drying air of high temperature in the first stage and dried and are dried with drying air of a less high temperature in the second stage, wherein the support surface available in the levels of the first stage for placing the panels is smaller than the support surface in the second stage, in that the panels are passed through the second stage at a second speed which is lower than the first speed in the first stage, the product of the first support surface with the first speed being equal to the product of the second support surface with the second speed.
Dryer for drying panels in a first and a second stage, each equipped with a conveying device for conveying the panels arranged in levels through the dryer, the first stage having at least one zone, the first stage having a feed device, a discharge device and a recirculation device, a discharge device and a circulating air duct with conveying means and a heating device for circulating air, as well as means for supplying supply air and means for discharging exhaust air, and wherein the second stage is equipped for taking over the panels from the first stage and with a supply device for drying air and a discharge device for drying air and a heating device, wherein a transfer device, a continuous conveyor or a discontinuous conveyor is arranged between the first and the second stage, by means of which the panels can be slowed down from the conveying speed in the first stage to the conveying speed of the second stage and can be raised or lowered to the height of the levels of the conveying device of the second stage or can be distributed to tracks of the conveying device of the second stage running side by side.
