and Inclination:

Increase speed or inclination on a flat screen increases bouncing of material and reduces precision. Because of the continuous movement, these variations are very precise on a drum and can be easily controlled.
Suitable for difficult products:
Because of it’s flexibility, a drum is always used to process difficult products (eg. cotton, wet maize, etc) or when an installation must be multi-purpose. Using a similar machine for both precleaning and fine cleaning reduces maintenance problems.

Showing batch size and typical drying times for wheat from 18% m.c. to 14% m.c. with drying air temperature of 50^o C, ambient temperature of 20 ^o C, and relative humidity of 70%.    Please note drying times vary according to condition of grain and variations in ambient conditions.   The figures below are based on a specific selection of fan and diesel heater combinations, but options exist for selection of different fans and heaters and Chief technical staff will be glad to advise on specific applications.
