JBT FoodTech Smart Dryer system

Thursday, 07 June, 2012 | Supplied by: JBT


JBT FoodTech’s Smart Dryer system for curing produce coatings is an automated monitoring program that works with JBT’s Single Pass Dryer to maintain even heat distribution and improve energy efficiency. Operating a Single Pass Dryer with an integrated Smart Dryer system is claimed to reduce energy use by approximately 20% per year, compared with using a standard Single Pass Dryer only.

The system improves maintenance and operation of the Single Pass Dryer by using microprocessor technology that monitors and controls dryer temperature and humidity, air duct screen cleanliness, process temperature and exhaust air. Gas controls, temperature sensors, humidity monitors and integrated exhaust volume control provide consistent temperature and humidity levels.

A touch-screen user interface offers a visual display of the system’s functions and sensors, enabling quick troubleshooting and monitor control. The screen displays an image of the physical dryer layout; corresponding gauges indicate when cleaning is required.

The touch screen has indicators that turn from green to red to easily identify issues, one-touch temperature adjustment and a flashing display that alerts to service needs.

The Smart Dryer system now comes standard with the Single Pass Dryer, but is also available as an upgrade to existing dryers.
