A cage mill dryer is a specialized drying and grinding machine used primarily in the chemical and agricultural industries. It consists of a cylindrical enclosure with internal rotating cages lined with perforated screens. Wet feed material is introduced into the cage mill dryer, where it undergoes simultaneous drying and grinding as it interacts with the rotating cages and hot air.
Cage mill dryers are valued for their efficiency in processing materials that require both drying and size reduction. The internal cages effectively break down agglomerates and ensure uniform drying by exposing the material to hot air as it moves through the dryer. This process results in finely dried and granulated products suitable for further processing or final use. Cage mill dryers are particularly useful for applications involving sticky or heat-sensitive materials, offering precise control over particle size distribution and moisture content. Their robust construction and versatility make cage mill dryers a reliable solution for achieving consistent product quality and maximizing throughput in industrial operations.
