 The
Collider-Dryer is the most powerful tool a cotton gin can have working for them
in wet ginning conditions. The Collider uses principles pioneered by our company
during the initial development of the Fountain Dryer, a predecessor to the
Collider. These principles include the use of a "skimmer" to maximize
hot air to cotton ratio and pull-through techniques that eliminate the need for
push fans.
What is different about the Collider?
The Collider maximizes the drying potential of the hot air in the system by
introducing multiple collisions with the seed cotton and providing many
turbulent points of interaction. This increase in efficient use of the hot air
lets a gin find their preferred balance between an increase in flow rate (bales
produced per week) and lower drying temperatures for improved fiber qualities.
This is a nice choice not available with drying systems less powerful.
