Can commercial grinding machines be used for drying materials besides grinding them finely?

materials finely, but certain types of grinding machines can also be used for drying materials. This type of grinding machine is commonly referred to as a dry grinding machine or a drying grinder. Dry grinding machines combine both grinding and drying functions, allowing the grinding and drying processes to be completed in the same equipment, thereby improving production efficiency and saving space.
The working principle of a drying grinder is similar to that of a conventional grinding machine, but its grinding chamber is usually designed with an appropriate hot air flow system for heating and drying materials. In this way, while the materials are being ground, the hot air flow can evaporate the moisture in the materials, ensuring that the materials reach the desired level of dryness after grinding is completed.
Therefore, drying grinders can not only achieve the refinement of grinding materials but also complete the drying of materials in the same equipment, making them suitable for some process that requires grinding and drying to be carried out simultaneously.
