Wood drying kilns / FRONT-LOADED DRYERS EQUIPMENT: FRONT-LOADED DRYING CHAMBERS FRONT-LOADED DRYING CHAMBERS

This type drying chambers for wood loaded by the transverse movement of p / m stacks using a forklift, i.e. frontally. Placement of equipment in the chamber - on the back wall, or in the classical way above the false ceiling. Axial reversible fans made of corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys serve as inducers of the drying agent circulation. Gate lifting and rolling is mechanized.

The advantage of ourtimber drying chambers :

  • Lower cost compared to imported and domestic counterparts!
  • You don't have to rack your brains - where to screw which screw, we will do it for you!
  • Ease of maintenance and open user architecture of the ACS leave you the right to flexibly regulate the mode of operation of the cameras!

We produce six standard sizes of convective drying chambers with front loading of sawn timber - for 30 m³, 40 m³, 50 m³, 60 m³, 80 m³ and 100 m³ for a single load

The chambers are built according to the classical scheme with vertical-transverse circulation of the drying agent along the stack. The drying chamber is divided in height by a false ceiling into two parts. The stack is formed at the bottom of the chamber, and all major equipment is positioned above the false ceiling. To fix the equipment under the ceiling of the drying chamber, a metal structure is assembled, the main elements of which are trusses, interconnected by ties and braces. The trusses are equipped with axial reversible fans and heat exchangers, as well as a false ceiling. False ceiling serves to organize the movement of air flows inside the chamber. To carry out air exchange with the external environment, supply and exhaust ventilation pipes are built into the roof or into the walls above the false ceiling. The branch pipes are equipped with air valves.

The basis of the design of the front-loading drying chamber is a frame installed on a previously prepared base. The frame is made of aluminum profiles. Elements of internal and external cladding are attached to the frame. Insulation is laid between the skin mineral wool... Insulation - slab. To prevent possible subsidence of the insulation, a crate is equipped on vertical wall fences. The vapor barrier layer allows you to avoid condensation on the outer casing of the chamber and the absorption of this moisture by the insulation, while maintaining its high heat-insulating properties.

In front-loading drying chambers, the loading gates have a considerable length, that is, the length exceeds the length of the stack, therefore, most often they are made lifting and sliding gates. The gates are equipped with roller clamps, a profile silicone seal for sealing the junction with the chamber doorway and hooks for opening the gates. For opening, a special gate release mechanism... On the doorway of the drying chamber, special grips are fixed, which include the roller clamps of the gate. The gate, sagging under its own weight, is tightly and reliably fixed with grips to the doorway. Up-and-down gate mechanism suspended on a monorail mounted above the doorway. The design of the door release mechanism allows you to lift and move a door weighing up to 1200 kg.

The fans used in these drying chambers are reversible, axial, with a cast aluminum impeller. Imported tropicalized electric motors are used as fan drives, insulation class "H", that is, they can be used in rooms with a temperature the environment up to 100 ° C.

As heat exchange equipment in convective drying chambers are used water heat exchangers, the heat transfer elements of which are made of bimetallic finned tubes. The fins are aluminum, rolling, which ensures good contact between it and the supporting pipe, which in turn increases the heat transfer coefficient between the coolant and the environment. The connection of the heat exchangers with the supply and return collectors is flanged. The supply header is equipped with an air removal system, and the return header is equipped with a coolant drain system.

To control the process of drying sawn timber, drying chambers are equipped with automation systems. In the basic configuration drying chambers are equipped with self-produced automatics PSU-TPS (d) based on a domestic controller. At the request of the CUSTOMER, it is possible to complete the cameras with automation based on the controller DELPHI.

Timber drying chamber device

The SKvp drying chamber consists of an all-metal frame insulated with mineral wool basalt sandwich panels 100-120 mm thick, which guarantee normal operation in the range of ambient temperatures from -30 to +40 ºС. The frame of the drying chamber is treated with a heat and moisture resistant Finnish coating. The doors of the drying chamber are lift-and-slide on rhombic supports, they are pressed spontaneously under their own weight. The gates are opened with the help of a removal mechanism, on which a worm winch is installed and rolled to the side by the width of the opening along the I-beam located in the upper part of the frame under the roofing sandwich panels. On the rear wall of the drying chamber there is an inspection door for visual monitoring of the state of the lumber during the drying process in case of need and maintenance or emergency repairs.

SKvp 30 .... 80

The timber drying chamber is equipped with aluminum axial reversible fans, which ensure the blowing of the stack with air at a speed of 2 ... 2.5 m / s and stainless heat exchangers designed to heat the air. The equipment is located in the upper part of the body and closed from below by a false ceiling with gaps up to the inner surfaces of the rear wall and the door by 1000 ... 1200 mm, which ensures good blowing of the stack. On the rear and front walls above the door, there are 2 electrically operated aluminum air dampers for automatic discharge of excessively humid air from the drying chamber. The supply line is equipped with a 3-way motorized valve for automatic flow control hot water into heat exchangers. Air and 3-way valves provide the required climate in the drying chamber, namely the temperature and humidity set by the operator using the program at each stage of drying the sawn timber.

Temperature, air humidity and wood moisture during the drying process are measured using sensors installed on the rear and side walls inside the drying chamber. The entire drying process is controlled by an automatic control system based on the advanced Italian new generation LITouch or dTOUCH controllers.

Drying chamber SK-60

Loading lumber into the front-loading drying chamber can be carried out in two main ways: in the form of packages, stacked with a forklift, and in the form of stacks, manually stacked inside the working space of the drying chamber.

The first method is traditionally used for large volumes of material to be dried, and the second for very small load volumes.

Front-loading drying chambers in comparison with longitudinal loading chambers are characterized by a number of positive features:

  • 1. Lack of track in front of the drying chamber;
  • 2. The use of a unified lifting and transport mechanism - a fork lift truck;
  • 3. Significant easing of working conditions for lumber stackers and, accordingly, an increase in their labor productivity;
  • 4. Uniform stacking of packages of lumber in the drying chamber and in the warehouses of dry and raw lumber.

In the mass series, FRONT-loading drying chambers have a loading volume starting from 40 m3.

Vertical circulation

Distinctive features of this type of drying chambers

  • - technological equipment is installed in a vertical plane in relation to the dried sawn timber;
  • - the vertical circulation of the drying agent through the stacks of dried sawn timber allows high-quality drying of large volumes of sawn timber;
  • - large volumes of loading are able to provide the required amount of lumber for any need for dry lumber;
  • - batch loading of sawn timber into the drying chamber is carried out by a forklift truck. Due to the preliminary stacking of sawn timber in packages, the duration of the "loading-unloading" operation takes minimal time
  • - the possibility of passing through the drying chambers

The composition of the main technological equipment

  • - axial fans with motors on outboard shafts;
  • - bimetallic heat exchangers;
  • - humidification system;
  • - supply and exhaust duct system;
