Drum Flaker

Other details:

• Flaker used to convert molten chemical in to solid flakes
• This is achieved by forming a thin layer of molten product on the outside surface of a rotating drum and causing this to be solidified by spraying cooling water from inside surface of the drum
• An adjustable scrapper continuously removes the solidified from the drum surface in flake forms
• The material of construction for the drum can be mild steel, stainless steel with hard chrome plating, normally mono-block for weldable materials
• This construction ensure lifelong alignment, surface will be machined and ground finished
• Drum rotating on anti-friction self aligning ball / roller bearing with standard housing
• Heavy duty drive arrangement for smooth, continuous and trouble free running
• V-Pulley or Variable speed arrangement also provided for optimum performance
• The Flaker Machine will be complete with 1440 RPM, 3 Phase, 415 volts, TEFC / ISD motor, with gear box, Tray, Hopper, M.S. hood, Belt Guard
• Machine mounted on heavy base-plate for trouble free service
• It's optional features is Screw Conveyor, Flaker Breaker, Film thickens controllers, Complete enclosure for Hazardous application

Features:

• Seamless performance

• Longer functional life

Other details:

• It removes efficient water and solvents from a wide variety of solutions and suspensions


• Drum drying is usually the most economical method for drying an endless list for chemicals, food and Pharmaceuticals, etc.

Principles of Operation:

• The Feed stock is introduced into a single or twin steam heated drums in a uniform film by use of variety of feeding devices and arrangements depending upon the material to be dried


• The moisture is dried off in less than one revolution and the dried solid is removed usually in the form of a thin sheet/powder by a Doctor Blade

Material of Drum Construction:

• The construction of a drum can be a mild steel, stainless steel/without hard chrome plating


• Surface will be machined and ground finished


• Drum rotating on anti friction self Aligning ball/roller bearing with standard housing


• The blade of the drum dryer are known as Doctor Blade and they depend upon compatibility carbon steel, stainless steel, Aluminium, Brass, Gum metal, etc.
