Vertical ribbon vacuum drying system is a complete set of process equipment that integrates bag-unpacking and feeding, automatic batching, mixing and drying, solvent recovery, and automatic packaging, widely used in battery materials, food, chemical, building materials and other industries.
The integrated ton-bag and small-bag unpacking station handles both small bags and ton bags, with a diaphragm valve controlling the flow rate to effectively prevent dust leakage. The core vertical ribbon vacuum dryer integrates mixing, reaction, and drying into a single unit, significantly improving process efficiency. The equipment is equipped with a heating jacket, and the main shaft and ribbon can also be equipped with heating function, which significantly improves drying efficiency. Special ribbon design ensures thorough material tumbling and minimal clearance to cone wall, reducing material adhesion Main shaft adopts mechanical seals achieves high-vacuum sealing, efficient drying with vacuum system, 3-5 times faster than conventional machines. High vacuum lowers liquid boiling point for efficient low-temperature drying, shortening heating/cooling time and improving batch productivity. The equipment is equipped with a dust collector at the top with a back-blowing device, which can introduce nitrogen gas to block and back-blow the sucked-up material, reducing loss. Additionally, a condensation recovery device can be optionally installed to recover the evaporated solvent. The entire system supports PLC automated control (such as temperature, vacuum level, rotational speed, and other key parameters) and is equipped with signal interfaces for remote operation. The system typically includes a steel-structured operating platform, with discharge valves and an automatic packaging system connected below, forming a complete closed-loop process flow from material feeding to finished product packaging.

Working Principle
Material is unpacked and fed into the integrated ton bag/small bag unpacking station in a dust-free environment. After vacuum-transported to the dryer, it is heated and dried through the jacket of the mixing chamber wall. The steam generated by heating is extracted by the vacuum pump and recovered to the storage tank through a horizontal condenser at the front end of the vacuum pump. High-vacuum sealed environment lowers the liquid boiling point for efficient low-temperature drying, shortening heating and cooling time, and improving discharge efficiency. The dust collector is equipped with heating and nitrogen backflushing functions to block the powder sucked up by the vacuum and backflush it into the mixing chamber, keeping the system clean. Nitrogen purge on side wall breaks vacuum intermittently and enhances convection, shortens drying cycle and aiding material discharge. After drying, materials are cooled via jacket and discharged quickly through a half -ball valve or expansion ball valve, with high sealing performance and minimal dead zones. The finished product is close-conveyed to the packaging system, which can be configured with open-valve packaging machines, ton-bag packaging machines, or small-bag packaging machines according to process requirements, enabling automatic weighing, metered filling, and bag sealing.
