Product catalog summary
Overview
JBT Corporation has developed the Single Pass Dryer, a benchmark technology for energy-efficient drying of fresh fruits and vegetables. This system is enhanced by the JBT Smart Dryer System, which maximizes energy efficiency and profitability.
How It Works
The dryer uses variable heat control and recirculation of warm air to maintain optimal drying conditions. High-velocity air ensures uniform coverage, while humidity control is achieved by exhausting a portion of humid air. The drying process involves stationary wet fruit on a conveyor for the first half, followed by optional rotation to complete drying and enhance shine. The system supports single or multi-layer drying in a compact space, conserving energy and increasing throughput.
Smart Dryer System
This feature simplifies maintenance and operation through a touch screen monitor, utilizing micro-processor technology to control temperature and humidity. Additional sensors provide quick checks on various components, reducing operational costs and downtime.

Single Pass Dryer-1

Single Pass Dryer Energy efficient, high volume produce drying in a single pass Technical innovation is a defining hallmark that has made JBT a leading supplier in the fresh produce industry for over 75 years. Based upon this experience, the JBT Single Pass Dryer continues to be the benchmark technology for energyefficient drying for all fresh fruits and vegetables. Now with the JBT Smart Dryer System feature, ensure maximum energy efficiency and improve your profitability. How it works The JBT Single Pass Dryer utilizes variable heat control and recirculation of warm air to efficiently maintain the lowest selected temperature to suit pack house drying conditions. High velocity air uniformly covers the produce throughout the width and length of the unit, and thermal efficiency is maintained through consistent air recirculation and humidity reduction. Humidity control is critical to dryer performance, and the Single Pass Dryer maintains the lowest possible levels by exhausting a portion of humid air while operating. Wet fruit remains stationary on the conveyor through the first half of the drying cycle to cure coating application and remove moisture. During the second half of the cycle, optional live rolls can slowly rotate the produce to complete the drying process and build shine. Capable of managing single or multi-layers, the produce dries in a single pass without transfers to minimize peel damage, saving energy, and increasing through-put. With high capacity and a relatively compact size, the JBT Single Pass Dryer is the ideal selection when floor space and energy conservation are important. The Smart Dryer System feature streamlines maintenance and operation of the Single Pass Dryer, all with the ease of a touch screen monitor. Utilizing the latest micro-processor technology to control dryer temperature and humidity, additional sensors allow personnel to quickly check plenum and air duct screen cleanliness, process temperature, exhaust air, and more. By maximizing the efficiency of the JBT Single Pass Dryer, the Smart Dryer system further reduces operational costs and reduces downtime.
