EQUIPMENT
ANJOU dryers for heavy clay
The ANJOU APO carrier dryer is part of Alfi Fimec’s industrial heritage. Its optimised-pitch principle reduces spacing between carriers inside the dryer. FIMEC SH supports this equipment, including mechanical refurbishment, ventilation and burner work.
Principle
Fast dryer with carriers
Version
ANJOU APO with optimised pitch
Loaded carrier weight
Up to 8 tonnes
Chain
Automatic tensioning
Installation
Adaptation to an existing installation
Optimised carrier pitch
The arrangement of carriers and sprockets organises travel through the dryer. Automatic chain tensioning supports the drive to limit jerky movement.
Reduced carrier spacing contributes to a compact layout. Adaptation to an existing dryer takes account of space, loads and the drying cycle, without assuming the same capacity or energy gain at every site.
Operating principle and support
Compactness
Reduced spacing between carriers
Drive
Specific sprocket arrangement
Mechanical refurbishment covers rollers, pivots, carriers, sprockets and the drive. Airflow work concerns ventilation, while thermal work addresses burners.
Electrical and control requirements can be addressed through a retrofit. The full scope is described in heavy clay equipment refurbishment.
Used in these solutions
Renovation of heavy clay equipment
FIMEC SH refurbishes equipment on brick and roof tile production lines. Work covers mechanical systems, dryer ventilation and thermal systems, as well as electrical installations, wiring and automation.
Production lines for the heavy clay industry
FIMEC SH integrates cutting and handling equipment into brick and roof tile production lines. The equipment feeds dryers, loads and moves kiln cars, then unloads fired products for pack formation.
