The Nordson® ICD dryer is a compact, energy efficient induction-heating system for drying water-based end compounds. The system is ideal for high-speed container operations, curing compounds at speeds from 100 to 2,000 cans per minute.

The ICD dryer heats only the can end, not the air around it, so compounds dry from the metal out for faster, more complete drying. As a result, the system consumes 50 to 70 percent less energy than conventional dryers, for more efficiency and savings. Instant on/off heating also contributes to energy savings.

ICD dryers range in size from just 20 inches (50 cm) to 96 inches (240 cm) in length. The compact size allows ICD dryers to be retrofit into existing lines without major modifications.
