ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method comprised of a plurality of doctoring units, each of which is a pivotally supported combination doctor blade and V-shaped member, is described. In each unit the leading edge of the doctor blade is parallel to the plane of the surface of a processing belt conveying the material to be dried and the leading edge formed by the two plane faces of the V-shaped member is generally perpendicular to the plane of the belt when the unit is in doctoring position. In addition to doctoring, the apparatus and method imparts a tumbling action to the material being dried by the plowshare action of the V-shaped member. Comestibles dried with this method and apparatus can be transferred directly from the method to a puffing operation, thereby eliminating the usual time consuming equilibration period.
