Streamlined Drying Process Speeds Up Changeovers

Maguire says its Ultra Dryers redefine the drying process, delivering significant time, energy and cost savings. They utilize minimal energy for material drying, resulting in substantial cost savings, reduced drying time and increased efficiency, the company says.

Maguire notes that the vacuum drying process employed by Ultra Dryers is exceptionally efficient. It ensures optimal moisture removal and guarantees consistent, high-quality drying results. Ultra Dryers are said to accelerate the drying process, achieving drying speeds six times faster than traditional methods, thereby minimizing production downtime and maximizing operational efficiency.

At NPE2024, Maguire is unveiling two groundbreaking developments: “Pit Stop” and “Auto Batch.” Pit Stop is said to revolutionize material changes by streamlining the drying process to achieve blends or material changes in as little as 20 minutes, thereby enhancing efficiency and reducing downtime. Auto Batch introduces a new level of automation, enabling operators to input desired throughput and automatically calculate material dispensing weight, optimizing energy efficiency and minimizing material in process during changeovers.

Maguire has launched a dedicated microsite to illustrate the tangible benefits and savings achievable with Ultra Dryers. The site offers a personalized journey and comprehensive insights into the tangible benefits and savings achievable with Ultra Dryers. Through energy-efficiency calculations, productivity benefits and valuable resources, the microsite highlights the advantages of Ultra materials drying, empowering visitors to make informed decisions about their drying processes. This initiative demonstrates Maguire’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions and enhancing customer experience in the plastics industry.
