What is Honeycle?

The molecular sieve and silica gel are strongly bonded to ceramic fibre inside the rotor by special chemical crystallization. Therefore, the rotor offers an extremely long service life. Moist air passes through numerous small holes in the rotor (desiccant) which efficiently absorbs the moisture. Therefore, the air departing from the rotor is thoroughly dehumidified and produces extremely low dew-point dry air. Regeneration is operated under the same principle but in reverse direction through the rotor (desiccant).

Features

  • Accurate P.I.D. temperature controller provides digital setting and display of regeneration temperature.
  • 24-hr timer for auto-start operation and operation fault diagnosis is automatic.
  • After cooler fitted as standard.
  • Adjustable rotation speed of the desiccant rotor.
  • Motor overload and phase reversal protection.
  • Electrical circuit built to comply with CE safety requirements.

The Dehumidifying Principle
P.I.D Temperature Control

The machine control contains a P.I.D Temperature Controller giving digital setting and display of regeneration temperature, 24-hr timer of auto start-up, display of return air temperature, and audible and visual alarms. Dew-point monitor with 'high' alarm and process heater are optional features.

Why use the Mould Sweat Dehumidifiers?

SMD series of mould sweat dehumidifiers are designed for the solution of condensation on the mould surface. The cooled water is used to reduce the moulding cycle time, particularly in injection and blow moulding of PET.

Condensation is formed when the mould surface temperature is below the dew-point temperature of the surrounding air. Condensation on the mould surface will cause corrosion of the mould surface and affect part quality.

The SMD generates an air flow with a dew-point ranging from 0°C to -10°C. And carries it to surround moulding area. It makes the best condition of humid all year round.

Advantages

  • In all atmospherical conditions, all year round, humidity is strictly controlled.
  • The number of moulding cycles can be shorten, improving productivity.
  • Reduction of imperfect and discarded pieces.
  • Lengthening the life of the mould, diminishing the risks of corrosion.
  • Compare to refrigeration dryer:
    1. The better saving energy.
    2. The SMD provide the dried air of 30°C to the moulding area so that the condensation will not appear on the view WIndow of the moulding machine.
    3. Designed in honeycle style for stable drying.
