Flaker Drum Dryer
Drum flakers (also known as cooling drums) are used for solidifying molten material. After processing on flakers, the material forms films or easily handled flakes and is further processed or packed into containers for transport. A great advantage of flakers is that they offer a continuous process.
SYSTEM : The steam heated Drum Dryer is noted for its high thermal efficiency in the removal of water and/or solvents from a wide range of solutions, slurries and suspensions. The ratio of steam consumption to evaporation can be as low as 1.2:1 and seldom more than 1.5:1
CONSTRUCTION MAIN FRAMES : Heavy duty cast iron or fabricated carbon steel construction.
DRYING DRUMS : High engineering hard chrome plate or hard cast iron, stainless steel or custom alloys.
KNIFE BARS : Cast iron or stainless steel clad cast iron with pneumatic operation as standard. (Oscillating knife mechanisms optional).
KNIVES : Sheffield steel, special stainless steel, Teflon, or stainless steel blade holders tipped with beryllium bronze for custom applications.
DAM PLATES : Provided where necessary, faced with Teflon or similar.
DRUM DRIVES : Fixed or variable speed.
Safety gear : (Twin Drum) Spring loaded.
ENCLOSURES : Vapor extraction hood, total, dust tight or nitrogen atmosphere capable.
VACUUM CASING : Plain or steam jacketed.
STANDARD AUXILIARIES : Side and cross conveyors, traversing feed gear, automatic feed control, product brakers.
Applications : Milk products, baby foods, breakfast cereals, fruit and vegetable pulps, starches, spent yeast, chemicals, biologicals.

Working Principle
The hot material is applied to the cooling drum by direct immersion into a trough, or indirect immersion using doctor/applicator rolls. The molten liquid is cooled on the cooling drum and after a partial revolution; the cooled and solidified product is removed by a scraper in the form of flakes or film. The cooling drum of the flaker is specially designed to provide an even cooling effect by having uniform and effective internal distribution. As a result, both high output and homogeneity of the product are possible.
