Drying for continuous processes

  • Up to 45% subsidized acquisition costs

  • Save up to 75% on energy costs

  • 100% planning reliability thanks to premium after-sales service

In continuous production processes, uninterrupted, consistent, and energy-efficient drying is crucial. With Airgenex®, HARTER offers a solution specifically designed for continuous systems – ideal for high cycle rates, consistent product quality, and seamless integration. Condensation drying takes place in a closed system and can be precisely adapted to speed, product properties, and drying requirements. Whether it’s continuous web, conveyor technology, or automated lines: Airgenex® ensures dry products without production stops – reproducible, economical, and resource-saving.

Consistently dry without compromise

Airgenex® is ideally suited for continuous processes. The technology ensures consistent drying results with high throughput – without thermal stress and regardless of the production environment. Depending on the task, HARTER realizes standardized continuous and belt dryers or customized special solutions – precisely tailored to products, cycle times, and interfaces.

Your benefits

Airgenex® drying is designed for continuous operation. It runs stably, independent of external influences, and ensures consistent results over many hours – ideal for automated production lines.

Our drying systems can be precisely matched to the speed, timing, and conveyor technology of your line – whether roller conveyor, conveyor belt, or special transport. This ensures that the continuous process remains undisturbed and efficient.

Airgenex® also dries reproducibly and reliably even with varying geometries or material thicknesses. The controlled air flow and temperature regulation ensure consistent quality – batch after batch.

Thanks to heat pump technology, heat recovery, and a closed system, Airgenex® dryers operate particularly economically – with low energy consumption per processed part or meter of continuous web.

Whether format changes, product conversions, or adjustments in the cycle: Airgenex® remains flexible. The parameters can be adjusted quickly without disrupting the overall process.

Drying systems for continuous processes

For continuous processes, HARTER offers continuous dryers and belt dryers based on Airgenex® technology. The systems enable uniform, energy-efficient drying with high throughput – perfectly matched to line speed, material flow, and integration requirements.

The Process

We dry with dry air and deliver it to the right places: A perfect interplay of air preparation and air guidance provides you with the best possible drying result.

Interface: Airgenex® Dehumidification Technology / Dryer – Moist air is extracted from the drying chamber and supplied to the dehumidification unit.

The pre-cooler pre-cools the air in a first stage. This significantly reduces the compressor’s energy consumption.

Moisture condenses on the fins of the air cooler and drains out of the drying system via the drip tray and condensate drain.

The cooled, dehumidified air is warmed up without additional energy by means of a pre-heater.
The air heater warms the air to the required process temperature.

The process air fan ensures the necessary air exchange between the Airgenex® dehumidification technology and the drying chamber.

Now, the dry, unsaturated air is guided into the drying chamber, where it absorbs the product’s moisture. Thus, the cycle is closed.

Efficiency that pays off.

Our HARTER drying systems save up to 75% CO₂ and are up to 45% governmentally funded.

What Our Customers Say

Not convinced yet? Our customers are thrilled!

“Sometimes it’s better to say nothing and let your customers speak for themselves.”
– Regina Mader, Managing Director

“For several decades, we have been using a Harter sludge dryer in our contract electroplating facility and are very satisfied with it. The technology and service are reliable and have helped us save a significant amount of money on disposal.”

Daniel Hutter
Verzinkerei Kriessern AG

“BK Giulini GmbH has been successfully collaborating with Harter GmbH for approximately 20 years. We are very satisfied with both the dryer technology and the reliability of the entire system. Based on these positive experiences and the excellent service, we invested in another drying system of this type in 2023.”

Dimitri Baumbach
ICL Ladenburg / BK Giulini GmbH (ICL Group)

“In our waste incineration plant, we have saved a significant amount of money by drying our heavy metal-containing hydroxide sludge. The plant technology is sustainable and maintenance-friendly. In retrospect, the investment was a very good decision.”
