Horizontal Fluidized Bed Dryer

Price: 8,000.00 USD

Unlike vertical or batch-style dryers, the Horizontal Fluidized Bed Dryer moves material steadily from one end to the other while drying it along the way. This horizontal movement makes the process easier to control, especially when working with sensitive tablets or granules.

The air flow in this machine is upward, like other models, as well as the vibration, to keep the material moving forward in a thin layer. Because of this, each particle spends a predictable amount of time inside the dryer.

Gentle Handling for Coated Products: Low-amplitude vibration (3-8 mm) keeps material moving without aggressive motion. This prevents chipping, cracking, or coating damage during the drying process.
Precise Moisture Control: With adjustable inlet (70–140°C) and outlet air temperatures (40–70°C), operators can fine-tune the final moisture level.
Easy Dust Removal: Dust collection drawers allow quick removal of collected particles, which simplifies cleaning and reduces maintenance effort during operation.
Low Noise During Operation: The best part is that the operating noise remains around ≤75 dB. This makes it more comfortable for long working hours compared to louder industrial systems.
Flexible Heating Options: Supports steam, electric, or gas heating, allowing easier integration with existing plant utilities without major changes.

What materials can be dried in a horizontal fluidized bed dryer?

Typical applications include:

Pharmaceutical granules (tablet granules, pellets).
Food additives, sugar, salt, seasoning granules.
Chemical crystals, polymer granules, fertilizer pellets.
Heat-sensitive materials, instant powder, feed additives.

What is the difference between horizontal and vertical fluid bed dryers?

Horizontal: continuous operation, large output, long residence time, suitable for large-scale production.
Vertical: batch operation, compact structure, mainly for small-batch or lab use.

Is it suitable for heat-sensitive materials?

Yes. With low working temperature, adjustable air velocity and short residence time, it avoids overheating and degradation. Widely used in pharmaceuticals and food.
