Method for drying bulk material, especially granular plastic material, and drying device for such material

Abstract

A drying device includes a mixing unit fixedly connected with a drying unit. The drying unit is erected on a bench. The mixing unit includes a virgin material loader and a regrind material loader, which are respectively connected to the top of a mixing component. The bottom of the mixing component is connected with a drying unit through a buffer hopper with level sensor. A drying process with the functions of mixing and drying plastic particles integrates the mixing process and the drying process into a set of processes, saving the control cost and working space. The regrind materials are directly fed by the suction device above the equipment, which can be used as soon as they are produced, reducing the cost of manual treatment and reducing the absorption of air moisture. The user can control the mixing proportion and drying parameters on the control panel at the same time.
