With air dryers, energy efficiency can be up to 90 % thanks to high drying rates and effective nozzle technology. Energy savings are 50 % compared to infra-red drying since the energy efficiency of infra-red drying is much lower, only 40 %, which means higher energy consumption and more costs. Air dryers are also environmentally friendly - 50 % less fuel is burned and CO2 produced.
In addition, air dryers require much less maintenance time and costs and offer higher evaporation capacity. The maintenance savings are remarkable, since there is no need to regularly replace IR bulbs or emitters.
