Industrial drum dryer for bulk solids
Optimize your production line with high-throughput drying for varied particle sizes, ensuring efficient moisture removal from minerals, sands, and more, even in fluctuating conditions. This versatile solution integrates seamlessly for enhanced processing of bulk solids.

Processes and Dries Industrial Solids and Powders
The Mozer TK-D from Allgaier Process Technology is an industrial drum dryer renowned for its robust build and innovative design. It accommodates high-throughput drying of solids and powders with customizable multi-pass systems for prolonged material residence time. Suitable for applications ranging from silica sand and lime processing to recycling and biofuels production, this dryer offers versatility across industries.
Utilizing a rotary motion, the Mozer TK-D ensures even drying by creating a crossflow between the drying gas and the material. The systems can handle fluctuating particle sizes and moisture content without compromising efficiency, processing up to thousands of tons per day. Integrated into production lines, its energy-efficient heating system, employing gas or light oil burners, minimizes heat loss significantly. The equipment’s compact footprint eases installation, and its PLC-controlled automation supports seamless integration and monitoring. Designed with high-grade materials, the drum dryer enhances durability against wear and tear, critical for abrasive materials like recycled glass.
For gentle drying requirements, combustion chambers mix gases with ambient air before entering the drum, protecting temperature-sensitive materials. Compliance with industry regulations ensures it meets safety and operational standards in demanding industrial environments, with minimal maintenance down-time ensured through smart design and quick component access. Customizable features further align with specific customer needs, supported by Allgaier’s engineering expertise for tailored solution implementation.
