Ribbon Dryers and Paddle Dryers are both types of industrial drying equipment, often used in chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing industries. Each serves to remove moisture from solids by introducing heat through a mechanical agitation process. Here is how they work, their common applications, and materials of construction, along with some major manufacturers for each type. IPP stocks dozens of used ribbon and paddle dryers available for immediate delivery.
Both types of dryers are crucial in industries where precise moisture content is critical for product quality and where heat sensitivity of materials requires careful handling. The choice between a ribbon and paddle dryer often depends on the specific drying needs of the material, including its consistency and how it reacts to heat and mechanical stress.
