X-Comb is the Moretto’s newest mini dryer for treating small batches of technical materials. Developed respecting the technological standard of all Moretto’s products, the X-Comb dryer has been designed specifically to meet the stringent requirements of the medical industry.

Immediately obvious upon first inspection is the inclusion of Moretto’s patented OTX™ hopper technology. OTX takes a radical new approach to drying hopper technology utilizing a unique internal geometry that significantly improves material mass flow and air flow distribution throughout the hopper. Beyond the signature Spyro™ shock-proof casing is a hopper capable of treating the same material as conventional hopper designs whilst requiring 40% less hopper volume, drying time, and airflow. At its core, the X-COMB dryer features an integrated dew point equalizer that manages the speed and revolution of a zeolite based desiccant cartridge. A direct drive geared motor drives the cartridge rotation and can achieve a stable -52°C.

Powering the X-COMB are two, high performance, VFD driven turbo-compressors; one compressor dedicated to the process circuit while the second manages the regeneration cycle. Add to this a self-adjusting variable airflow and resin anti-stress control, which together ensure optimal drying while never over-drying. The dryer’s filter has been positioned externally and can be easily accessed, without tools, for cleaning. The regeneration exhaust air can be channeled ensuring that the dryer is suitable for medical and other clean-room, optical, or technical applications.

An integrated color touch-screen control comes standard with either model of the X-COMB series. The simple and easy to use interface allows for quick selection and control of all dryer parameters. In addition, the control has been adapted to centrally manage an optionally connected Moretto Venturi feeder. Standard RS485 Modbus, Ethernet and USB connectivity options are available and the dryer is compatible with Moretto’s MOWIS plant-wide supervisor system.
