The AOBOTE 5HD-1000-HW is a 1-ton rotary drum heat pump dryer built for around-the-clock processing of coffee, grains, nuts and spices. The drum tumbles the batch continuously while the heat pump recirculates gentle heated air, so every kernel dries evenly — no scorching, no manual turning, and no fuel gases anywhere near the product.

Why the Rotary Drum Design
- Even drying by tumbling — continuous rotation mixes the batch, eliminating hot spots and uneven moisture.
- Automatic PLC control — set the curve once; the machine manages temperature and timing batch after batch.
- Heat pump efficiency — 1 kWh of electricity delivers 3–4 kWh of heat, cutting running cost by 60–70% versus conventional dryers.
- Cold-climate ready — operates reliably from −10 °C ambient, with zero exhaust emissions and green refrigerant.
Typical Applications
Coffee cherries and parchment, paddy and other grains, nuts, spices and herbs, tea, and meat or seafood batches — one drum, many calendars. For continuous high-volume lines, see the Continuous Belt Heat Pump Dryer; for material-specific solutions, see Coffee Beans and Paddy Rice.

FAQ
How does heat pump drying save energy?
The heat pump recycles heat from the drying air instead of venting it: 1 kWh of electricity moves 3–4 kWh of heat into the drum, so running cost drops 60–70% against fuel or plain electric heating.
Will it work in my climate?
Yes — the unit is engineered for cold ambients (−10 °C and above) and humid conditions alike.
What about installation and maintenance?
The unit arrives pre-assembled: position it, connect 380 V power, and load. Maintenance is minimal — clean the filter monthly.
Which warranty is included?
A 12-month warranty is standard; extended terms and spare-part packages are available on request.
