    -Polycarbonate blends dry perfectly

    -Recommended for most non-air conditioned facilities

  • Performs perfectly even at relative humidities over 80%
  • -Minimum, constant dewpoints of - 40° are monitored and maintained throughout the drying operation

    -Many drying operations can reach dewpoints of - 100° F

  • Stainless steel, insulated hoppers are standard

PDII Series Dual Hopper Portable Drying Systems

Ideal for on-the-fly material changes

Quick changeovers at the press eliminate downtime waiting for material to dry. Dual hoppers allow processing resin in one hopper while predrying for the next material run

  • Airflow to hoppers controlled automatically, eliminating the guesswork associated with manual air valves
  • Separate temperature controllers accommodate different resins or different temperatures in each hopper
  • Available with HP4-X or ARID-X dryers and drying hoppers up to 300 lb (136 kg) capacity
  • Can also be configured to feed two or more machines creating a mini central system

PDII Dual Hopper System with Blending

Just-in-time blending of virgin and regrind eliminates waste

DRI-AIR's unique twin-auger, dual hopper system combines drying, mixing and conveying for on-demand delivery of virgin and regrind materials

  • Superior accuracy compared to proportional hopper loaders
  • Both materials remain separated until called for
  • No problems with storage or waste of premixed materials that can only be used for specific jobs
  • No layering or inaccuracies commonly associated with proportional vacuum loaders
  • Available as a stand-alone system when materials do not need drying
  • Independent temperature controls on each hopper

PD Colorant Blending System

Blend-Dry-Convey Colorant & Virgin Material

Off-the-press colorant blending system gives you the ability to dry colorant. DRI-AIR's exclusive "augerless" auger provides unmatched accuracy and repeatability

  • Eliminates press mounted color feeders
  • Operates independently of molding machine (no tie-in required)
  • Easy to move from press to press
  • On-the-fly adjustments minimize the use of colorant
  • Easy access and cleanout
  • Can dry colorant if required



PDlll Series Three Material Drying, Conveying and Blending System

Blend vigin-regrind-colorant on demand, off the press

Three hoppers, three augers provide flexibility for off-the-pree mixing of virgin and regrind resins with colorant

  • The entire system can be located outside the production area for dustless operation, especially important in a cleanroom environment
  • Exclusive DRI-AIR feature: colorant drying in addition to drying of virgin resin and regrind
  • Eliminates waste of premixed materials
