28m Four Deck Natural Gas Veneer Dryer Shine Veneer Dryer GTH30-28
Shine Birch Veneer Roller Dryer: Precision-Engineered for Efficient, Low-Cost Drying
In the competitive birch veneer processing industry, maximizing efficiency while maintaining consistent quality is critical. Shine Machinery’s roller veneer dryer stands out as a professional-grade solution, designed to meet the unique demands of birch veneer drying with precision, energy efficiency, and reliability.
1. Hourly output: 3.5m3
2. Heating Section: 24m
3. Final Moisture: ≤10%
4. Heat Source: Natural Gas
Dimensional Design: Optimized for High Throughput & Uniform Drying
The dryer’s 3000mm working width sets the stage for high-capacity processing, allowing simultaneous handling of multiple birch veneer sheets. Paired with a 2400mm heating zone and 4000mm cooling zone, the machine ensures gradual, uniform heat transfer—critical for avoiding warping or cracking in thin (0.8–8mm) or thick (up to 8mm) birch veneers. This extended heating-cooling structure eliminates “hot spots” and ensures every sheet exits with consistent moisture content (≤10% final, down from 80% initial), a hallmark of premium birch veneer quality.
Natural Gas Heating: Efficient, Eco-Friendly, and Cost-Effective
Powered by a natural gas heat carrier, this dryer leverages clean, abundant energy to reduce operational costs and environmental impact. Natural gas combustion delivers rapid, stable heating with minimal emissions, making it ideal for regions with reliable gas infrastructure. Compared to electric or biomass alternatives, it offers:
Lower Fuel Costs: Natural gas is often cheaper than electricity or biomass in many markets, reducing long-term operational expenses, such as in Russia, Hainan etc.
Faster Heating Response: The high thermal conductivity of natural gas ensures quick temperature stabilization, shortening drying cycles and boosting throughput.
