5HL Series: The Backbone of Industrial Grain Drying
The 5HL series is engineered for continuous, high-volume drying operations. With capacities ranging from 100 to 1000 tons per day, it is the preferred choice for large grain depots, processing parks, and cooperatives. Patented counter-flow/mixed-flow technology ensures uniform drying while significantly reducing energy consumption. Models are available with multi-stage temperature control and advanced PLC automation.
