VC999 33.78i
Pack Drying After Shrinking
The VC999 33.78i is a dryer that removes water from the surface of packs leaving a shrink tank. The machine is designed to complement VC999 packing lines, but it can also be used in other packing and shrinking installations. A mesh conveyor moves the wet products under blowers, so that dry packs, ready for further packing, come out at the end of the line.
How does the VC999 33.78i work?
Wet packs leaving the shrink tank go onto the dryer’s mesh conveyor. As they pass through, they are blown with air from multiple rotary blowers located above and below the conveyor, which remove water from the entire pack surface. The blower arrangement suits products of various shapes and sizes, and the blowing intervals can be adjusted according to the type of product.
Key advantages of the VC999 33.78i
Blowing from above and below removes water from all sides of the pack, which improves its appearance and makes further labelling, boxing or chilling easier. The mesh conveyor lets water drain freely, and the adjustable blowing intervals allow the machine to be matched to the product. The dryer can work with the VC999 shrink tank and with other installations, which gives great flexibility when building lines.
