Blenders-Dryers
Blend And Dry in One Operation
The basic Gemco Tumble Dryer is the initial product in this versatile
line. The vessel is first charged with material then is rotated
at a low speed while heat from 120 - 500 degrees +F and vacuum is
applied. The gentle tumble action provides maximum particle contact
with the vessel wall for maximum drying efficiency. Cooling systems
are available to reduce material temperature after drying as required
by the process, or for faster unloading and handling safety. All
Gemco Dryers are available with optional agitators to prevent lumping
and caking during drying.
A
Gemco Blender-Dryer is a dryer with an added variable speed drive
system which provides the capability of rotating at the higher speeds
required for effective blending. Thus the system can be used before
or after drying. The system is versatile enough to be used simply
as a Tumble Blender, or a Tumble Dryer or as a Combined Tumble Blender-Dryer-
all depending upon the product. Agitators are installed if needed.

considered in the past. Gemco Alloy Dryers provide cost, delivery,
reliability and maintenance advantages plus enhanced processing options.
