Reduces Moisture in Agricultural and Industrial Materials
The Stationary AgroDry® System by STELA Laxhuber is designed to enhance moisture reduction across multiple industries, including agriculture, timber, foodstuffs, and recycling. Utilizing advanced Bi-turbo technology, this system operates with a multi-stage drying process, effectively reducing energy consumption by up to 35% through optimized air circulation and heat recovery. It’s capable of handling up to 51 tons per hour, efficiently processing a wide array of products such as maize flour, dried fruits, and OSB boards. The system features automatic humidity control ensuring consistent product quality, and it’s constructed from high-quality materials for long service life. Integration is seamless with existing production lines via its flexible modular design, suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. The AgroDry® System also incorporates TÜV-tested indirect air heaters with over 91% efficiency, and noise protection features, ensuring compliance with environmental and operational standards. Engineering support for customization is available to meet specific production requirements.
