Drum Dryer Resurfacing

With multiple, onsite Drum Dryer Services, we will be happy to get you back to full production within only a few hours. Idaho Steel can provide new life and added production to your drum dryers whether your service is planned or you have an emergency need.

Profile grinding requires precise equipment and experienced technicians. With more horsepower and a more stable base we can remove stock more accurately and faster than any other machine today. Our advanced contact wheel design, custom belts and true tangential grinding will also help reduce your down time.

Today the application of a full face coating to a drum dryer is done with sophisticated coating equipment, and ground to an excellent flake making surface in about 1/2 the time of only a few years ago.

Our faster grinding and spray equipment means quicker turnaround times to get you running faster.

So if your dryer surface causes frequent grinds, sheet defects, or it just needs revitalization we can provide you with some great options. We even provide coatings for new dryers.

Dryer edge wear can be very costly to production and to maintenance budgets.

We can apply a wear resistant coating to the edges of any drum dryer to help reduce that edge wear.

This application adds only a few hours to the timeline of one of our standard grinds.

Don’t remove precious dryer shell thickness through repeated grinds and apply an edge coating.

For smaller dryers and roll defects, ISP offers spot repair also where applicable.

Thermally sprayed spot repairs are used to mend dryer defects such as corrosion, mechanical damage, doctor chop, or porosity that affect sheet quality.
