This week’s photo shows an 8’x60’ rotary drum inside FEECO’s facility.

FEECO provides a vast range of rotary drums including ore agglomerators, granulators, kilns, calciners, coolers, and dryers for your processing needs- all designed in nearly any configuration. From parallel or counter-current flow, direct or indirect-fire, as well as a variety of fuel sources, FEECO’s rotary drums are developed with process flexibility in mind.

Granulators are additional rotary drum options, but for agglomeration, not thermal processing, purposes. This open ended equipment uses a tumble and growth action to form pellets, and requires a chemical reaction. All of FEECO’s drums differ in design and function, depending on the material and ideal end-product.
