Overview

About the Continuous Conveyor, Tunnel Dryer

Unlike batch dryers, tunnel dryers operate in a fully continuous mode, allowing materials to move through different drying zones, ensuring uniform moisture removal, high production capacity, and consistent product quality.

Tunnel dryers are widely used in industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, nutraceuticals, agro processing, and minerals, where large-scale drying with automation and efficiency is required.

ART Mechatronics offers high-performance conveyor tunnel dryers, engineered for uniform drying, energy efficiency, and reliable industrial operation.

How it works

Working Principle of Tunnel Dryer

Material Loading
Product is loaded onto:Conveyor belt / trays
Conveyor Movement
Conveyor moves material through:Enclosed tunnel chamber
Zoned Heating System
Tunnel is divided into multiple zones:Pre-heating zoneDrying zoneCooling zone
Hot Air Circulation
Hot air is circulated using blowersEnsures uniform heat distribution
Moisture Removal
Moisture evaporates graduallyExhaust system removes moist air
Product Discharge
Dried material exits from end of tunnelReady for packaging or further processing
