For efficient heat transfer in continuous drying applications, Holoflite and screw dryers deliver proven performance. With more than 47 years of expertise, IPP stands as the world’s largest supplier of used process equipment, offering ready-to-ship inventory from 20 complete plant sites and a vast selection of 15,000+ pieces of process equipment. Our used Holoflite and screw dryers provide immediate availability at a fraction of the cost of new equipment.

Holoflite dryers and screw dryers are highly efficient for indirect drying, meaning the product does not come into direct contact with the heating medium. In Holoflite systems, the material passes through a jacketed, hollow screw conveyor filled with heating fluid. Heat transfers through the screw flights and outer jacket, drying the product as it is gently conveyed through the system. Screw dryers operate similarly but may be single- or twin-screw designs, with varying pitch and geometry tailored for specific materials.

These systems excel at drying:
