Vertical Cylinder Dryer

When conditions require a greater drying capacity than a conventional Tower Dryer can offer, the Cherokee Vertical Cylinder Dryer is a great solution.  The Seed Cotton stream is spread out evenly across the width of dryer and is tossed through the hot air stream by rotating cylinders.  Each cylinder tosses the seed cotton onto a diagonal shelf made up of hundreds of individual fingers directing the cotton downward onto the next cylinder.  As the cotton slides down the fingers, hot air is allowed to slip between the fingers and through the cotton, thereby greatly improving drying efficiency.
