GRASS VALLEY, Calif.,
July 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- Triminator, a leading designer of hemp and cannabis
processing equipment, has designed two industrial hemp dryers
capable of processing 1,100 pounds of biomass per hour. The new
machines will revolutionize current drying methods with a 90% time
savings and total drying control.
"There's so much hemp coming online this year and nobody knows
how to handle the sheer volume in terms of drying space," says
Dana Mosman, CEO of Triminator.
"There's a real lack of equipment for hemp drying."
Current hemp-drying practices include barn drying, which
requires a large facility; and field drying, which leaves the crop
vulnerable to dust, debris, and unanticipated weather. Both methods
require several weeks to dry a crop and lack the process controls
required for consistent, large-scale output.
Last season, newer cultivators were unprepared for crop
processing and late-season rains. Those oversights left them
scrambling for proper drying methods and storage facilities. Many
cultivators experienced crop degradation or total crop loss.
To solve the problems of crop degradation, mold, and slow drying
times, Triminator partnered with an industrial process engineering
firm whose clients include subsidiaries of Phillip Morris and other multinational
companies. The partnership yielded two machines. One machine is
designed for the continuous high-throughput of biomass; the other
is intended for premium hemp flowers. To maximize energy
efficiency, each design features material-recapture technology and
custom control systems with components sourced from Siemens and
Schneider Electric.
Triminator's CBD Box Drying System — which processes up to 1,587
pounds of hemp per day — utilizes roll-in carts within an
environmentally controlled container. This system's sophisticated
process control is suited for high-quality hemp flowers.
Triminator's CBD Belt Drying System — which continuously
processes up to 1,102 pounds of hemp per hour — utilizes a
four-belt conveyor system within a heated enclosure the size of a
shipping container. This system is ideal for high-volume hemp
biomass.
"Above all else, it's how to handle the volume," says Mosman.
"If you're trying to dry 30,000 pounds of hemp in a day, do you
have the facility space for hanging plants?"
Triminator is offering a limited number of CBD drying systems
for the 2019 season. Orders are expected to fill quickly.
