ABSTRACT:
A drying system for drying textiles. The textile drying system includes an enclosed dryer having heating elements located therein, a feed system for continuously feeding textiles through the dryer, and a dehumidifier for directing conditioned air into the dryer. The textiles are dried in the dryer due to a combination of the heating elements located in the dryer and the conditioned air directed into the dryer by the dehumidifier. The dehumidifier conditions the ambient air to a selected temperature and relative humidity, and directs this air into the dryer. An exhaust port located in the dryer provides an opening for air within the dryer to exit to the atmosphere. The speed at which textiles are advanced through the dryer by the feed system is controlled by a moisture sensor which senses the moisture content of the textile goods exiting the dryer 12 and controls the speed of the feed system accordingly.
