FLIGHTING

MATERIAL LIFTERS INFORMATION

Available in several designs, material lifters, or flights, help to maximize efficiency of heat transfer between the material and the drying air. Flights pick up material, carry it over, and shower it through the air stream as the drum rotates, promoting efficient heat transfer between the material and drying air. Both flight design and flight pattern are customizable.

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE FLIGHT DESIGN

Several factors will influence how the material to be processed will interact with the flights. Some of the most important characteristics are the material’s moisture content and angle of repose, along with the speed of the drum, and material load.
