Ladle Dryer / Dryer-Preheaters / Preheaters
Systems Built for Consistent Drying/ Precise Preheating
Stelter & Brinck ladle heating systems are engineered for maximum efficiency, flexibility, and performance.
-
Our ladle preheaters operate with optimal fuel efficiency while achieving the high temperatures required for preheating.
-
Our ladle dryers deliver rapid, uniform results through high air recirculation rates, promoting fast and even drying at lower temperatures.
-
The dryer-preheater combination units feature larger burners to reach elevated preheat temperatures, while maintaining high recirculation airflow for quick, consistent drying—providing the best of both systems in one design.
