Advanced vacuum air dryer for pelletizing strands

Efficiently remove residual water from polymer strands with a vacuum air drying system designed for seamless integration into your pelletizing operation, ensuring optimal dryness before cutting and reducing maintenance with filter-less technology.

Removes Moisture from Polymer Strands

The XVAK Series Vacuum Air Dryer from Bay Plastics Machinery is engineered to efficiently extract moisture from polymer strands, improving pellet quality in continuous, high-speed production lines. Utilizing a vacuum head and strand comb design, this system ensures thorough drying by pulling vacuum across the entire strand, channeling removed water back into the process or to a drain. Ideal for the plastics and polymer processing industries, the XVAK enhances the production of plastic pellets, micro pellets, and extruded components. With its filter-less water separation process, maintenance time is minimized, eliminating the need for costly filters. Constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance, the XVAK offers optional features like a sound enclosure, quick change strand comb for adaptability to different production needs, and a variable speed drive for micro pellet applications.
