Veneer Dryer Installation in Thailand

2023/07/14 09:43

Key Specifications & Technical Highlights

The newly installed two-deck roller dryer is engineered for large-scale veneer production, boasting:

  • Impressive Capacity: With a daily drying output of 80–90 cubic meters, it significantly boosts the customer’s throughput, enabling them to meet surging market demand without expanding facilities.

  • Sustainable Heating: Powered by a 6-ton biomass burner boiler, the dryer directly utilizes waste wood (e.g., sawmill residues, offcuts) as fuel. This reduces reliance on fossil fuels, cutting fuel costs by an estimated 35% while slashing carbon emissions.

  • Continuous Production: The two-deck roller design ensures non-stop operation, maintaining a steady flow of uniformly dried veneer. Advanced temperature and humidity controls guarantee consistent moisture content (8–10%), critical for producing high-strength plywood.

In Thailand’s competitive wood processing industry, manufacturers face pressing challenges: rising energy costs, inconsistent drying quality, and pressure to adopt eco-friendly practices. Shine’s two-deck roller dryer addresses these head-on:

  • Energy Efficiency: By replacing traditional fossil fuel systems with biomass, the dryer slashes operational expenses. For the Thai customer, this translates to annual fuel savings of up to $120,000.

  • Uniform Drying Quality: The roller system’s precise airflow and heat distribution eliminate hot/cold spots, ensuring every veneer sheet meets strict moisture and thickness tolerances. This reduces rejects by 25–30%, enhancing product marketability.

  • Space Optimization: Despite its 52-meter length, the dryer’s compact, integrated design maximizes workshop space—a critical advantage for facilities with limited square footage.

Seamless Installation & Customer Support

“Our goal was to deliver a solution that not only meets but exceeds our customer’s needs,” said Mr. Lyu, Shine’s Project Manager. “The two-deck roller dryer’s biomass integration and high capacity align perfectly with Thailand’s focus on sustainable manufacturing.”

Invitation to Visit: Witness Excellence in Action

Shine Machinery warmly invites customers, industry partners, and stakeholders to visit the installation site in Songkhla to inspect the dryer firsthand. Tours will include:

  • A demonstration of the biomass burner in operation, showcasing fuel efficiency and emission control.

  • A walkthrough of the roller drying process, highlighting uniformity and throughput.

  • Q&A sessions with Shine’s technical team to address specific operational questions.

Looking Ahead: Empowering Thailand’s Wood Industry

This installation marks a significant milestone in Shine’s expansion across Southeast Asia. By combining cutting-edge technology with sustainability, the two-deck roller dryer not only enhances the Thai customer’s productivity but also sets a benchmark for eco-conscious manufacturing in the region.


For manufacturers seeking to reduce costs, improve quality, and align with global sustainability goals, Shine’s two-deck roller dryer is more than a machine—it’s a partner in progress.
