Thoreson-McCosh 1920Lbs Desiccant Air Dryer System

Description:

The Thoreson McCosh 1920 Lbs Capacity Bulk Material Silo Hopper Desiccant Air Dryer is used in centralized plastic resin drying systems to remove moisture from hygroscopic thermoplastic materials prior to processing while providing high-capacity material storage and continuous drying. Commonly installed in injection molding plants, extrusion lines, blow molding facilities, compounding operations, and central plastics processing systems requiring high-volume drying of engineering resins. Processing technicians and maintenance teams use this drying hopper for production expansion, resin conditioning, equipment replacement, and large-scale material handling applications.

Applications:

The Thoreson McCosh bulk material silo hopper integrates with TD Series desiccant dryers to continuously dry and store large volumes of plastic resin while maintaining extremely low moisture levels before processing. Its closed-loop drying system is suitable for Nylon, PET, Polycarbonate, ABS, Acetal, and other moisture-sensitive engineering plastics used in injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, and centralized material conveying systems where consistent resin quality and uninterrupted production are essential.
