When you need precise, multi-stage drying with excellent control over product quality, Wyssmont dryers provide an industry-proven solution. Backed by over 47 years of process expertise, IPP offers one of the world’s largest inventories of used process equipment, with 20 complete plant sites and more than 15,000 ready-to-ship pieces. Our selection of used Wyssmont dryers gives companies fast, affordable access to this highly specialized equipment.
Wyssmont dryers, also known as Turbo-Dryers®, use a vertical stack of rotating trays to progressively dry materials as they move downward through the unit. Heated air circulates across each tray, evaporating moisture from the product. This staged approach ensures consistent drying with minimal product handling, making Wyssmont dryers ideal for materials that require uniform drying and gentle treatment.
Industries and materials that rely on Wyssmont dryers include:
Wyssmont dryers are available in various materials to accommodate different process demands:
