Drying Result in Uganda

Our customer uses our high frequency-vacuum wood dryer kiln to dry African Mvule, 160mm thick, freshly cut, with a moisture content of nearly 70%. 

The thickness of the timber was extremely high and the drying difficulty was very high, which is undoubtedly a great challenge for traditional timber drying methods. However, with the high frequency vacuum wood drying kiln, the drying process can be completed in 15-20 days with high quality. The moisture content of the wood in the kiln reached 20-30% before we left Uganda, and another couple of days would have completed the drying completely. Our customer is very satisfied with the speed and quality of drying!

During this trip, friends from other countries and regions in Africa came to see the installation activities of the HF vacuum wood drying kiln. After a field visit to our machines, they were all pleasantly surprised by the superb performance of the HF Vacuum Wood Drying Kiln. Mr. Carlos exchanged experiences about wood drying technology with them, pointed out some existing problems and proposed solutions, which made the friends very satisfied.
