Modular Design = Reduced Costs
Advanced Drying Technology
Gryphon dryers are produced in segments that are bolted together to form larger units, similar to lego blocks. The sections are built in 3, 5 or 10 foot widths, and bolt together in a series. The repeatable design greatly reduces manufacturing and installation costs. This design feature enables our technology to be shipped and installed in a fraction of the time of traditional dryers.
The Model 05-series (shown is the model 0520)
In addition, modules may be added to the installation at later stages to allow for fractional increases in production. This is a major advantage, as it allows for systematic increases in throughput with modest costs for both the capital and the required infrastructure.

Installation Procedure
Depending upon the assembly (if the modules are placed in a series, stacked, or in parallel), the chambers are first placed in position and bolted together. Once in position, the lid structures are attached and then electronics and controls connected.

Once the electronics and controls are re-assembled at the site, water and air lines are connected to the unit. Lastly, conveyor belts are added to the assembly and the commissioning process begins. With the advanced design, Gryphon can manufacture systems in as low as 90 days and install systems in as little as two weeks.
