Factory Certified GB-16DHW Cob Dryer

Giant Finishing Model GB-16DHW Spiral Bowl with Internal Separation Vibratory Cob Dryer and Polishing Machine. The cob dryer provides a compact, economical and rapid method of drying wet parts. The corn cob is heated by multi-pass hot liquid jackets which are built into the machine.  The cob and parts slide by the hot liquid jackets to absorb heat.  Hot liquid is re-circulated by a 3/4 HP pump which is located in an insulated tank with a 6 KW heater and thermostat.  The tank has a low level switch for pump and heater protection.

The machine is designed to work with a range of vibratory finishing machines. They can also be used in conjunction with other forms of continuous feed equipment or used to receive products from bins or hoppers.

OPERATION:

The parts are fed in through the side chute of the machine onto bank of corn-cob media.  They spiral outward from the machine bottom and progress up and around the drying chamber.  At the top of the built in dam they pass over a screen.  The cob is returned to the dryer and parts discharge into receiving bins or with the use of a hand operated gate parts can be directed back into the drying mass for a polishing feature.  The degree of drying is determined by the length of time it takes the parts to cycle through the machine once.  This can be varied either by amplitude

adjustment or with the variable speed option.
