Roller Veneer Dryer Installation Ready for the Test Running
Shine Roller Veneer Dryer Installed in Jiangsu, Ready for Trial Operation
A significant milestone has been achieved in Jiangsu Province as Shine’s 2-deck, 36-meter roller veneer dryer has been successfully installed at a local customer’s plywood production facility. The equipment, now fully assembled and tested, is prepared to commence trial operations, marking a critical step toward enhancing the client’s capacity to produce high-quality plywood.
Key Details of the Installation
The newly installed roller veneer dryer, designed specifically for large-scale veneer processing, features a compact yet robust design optimized for efficiency. With a total length of 36 meters and 2 drying layers, it is engineered to handle high volumes of veneer while maintaining consistent quality.
Production Capacity & Target Material
The dryer’s daily processing capacity is projected to reach approximately 50 cubic meters, aligning with the client’s production needs for medium-to-large-scale plywood manufacturing. Its primary application will be drying poplar wood veneers—a versatile material widely used in furniture, construction, and packaging industries. Poplar’s relatively low density and uniform texture make it ideal for veneer production, and the dryer’s advanced technology ensures optimal moisture control (targeting 6–12% moisture content) to enhance the veneer’s bonding strength and dimensional stability.
Post-Installation: Training & Operational Support
Following the installation, Shine’s technical team will conduct comprehensive training sessions for the client’s factory workers. The program will cover:
Equipment Operation: Hands-on guidance on starting/stopping the dryer, adjusting parameters (e.g., temperature, conveyor speed), and monitoring real-time performance.
Maintenance Best Practices: Training on routine checks (e.g., lubrication, belt tension) and troubleshooting common issues to minimize downtime.
Quality Control: Instruction on how to verify veneer moisture levels and identify defects (e.g., warping, cracks) post-drying, ensuring compliance with plywood production standards.
Significance for the Client & Local Industry
This installation strengthens the client’s production capabilities by adding a high-efficiency drying solution to their workflow. By reducing manual labor and automating the drying process, the dryer is expected to increase the client’s output by 20–30% while lowering energy costs by 15–20% compared to traditional drying methods.
Moreover, the project underscores Shine’s commitment to supporting local manufacturing in Jiangsu—a key region for woodworking and plywood production in China. By providing reliable, technologically advanced equipment, Shine aims to empower regional enterprises to compete more effectively in global markets.
