veloped in 2012 that was more successful than expected . A modular project that resulted in the realisation of hundreds of applications each year , tailored to specific customer needs . This solution , suitable for condensing in the drying circuit , improves the process by significantly increasing the efficiency of the dryers with the condensation of most of the extracted vapours , significantly improving the autonomy of the dryer . |

X Dryer 20 series launched in 2006 dynamics and material flow , clearly showing how to optimise energy exchange in plastics drying . Thanks to its innovative geometry , OTX ensures a smooth flow of granules , guaranteeing the correct drying of each individual granule being processed . The optimisation of the process parameters has also allowed to reduce by 40 % the hopper size , the technological airflow and the treatment time , whilst maintaining the same hourly throughput . The reduction in hopper size was made possible by the energy efficiency of OTX , improved by 66 % whilst maintaining the same production capacity . The use of a smaller hopper requires a smaller dryer . A combination that brings a real energy saving of 41.2 %, which , considering current costs , guarantees unbeatable optimisation . Furthermore , a condensate separator was de-
TURBOCOMPRESSORS 2014 saw the completion of the Hyper Flow turbocompressor project and the launch of the first machine capable of generating 1,800 mc / h of technological air . A solution developed with the aim of creating a machine capable of providing airflow using as little energy as possible . Side channel pumps were normally used before to fulfill this need , with an approximate 28 % yield , and therefore a significant energy consumption . Given the exceptional results achieved , Moretto is extending the range with two new larger models : 1,800 and a 2,400 mc / h . As an example , during standard constant operation , the Hyper Flow HF1800 version powered by a 15 kW motor to develop 1,800 mc / h at 220 mbar only uses 4.8 kW . This is as much as 10 kW less than the well-known side channel suction units , saving 25,600 Euro / year in energy costs . What distinguishes the Moretto turbocompressor is the speed of the impeller , which ranges from 6,000 to 20,000 rpm depending on the model . The choice of installing the high-speed motor directly
