We design process optimization into every dryer we deliver, bringing drying expertise and attention to detail to each project. We are flexible in design to fit your plant, product, and operational requirements.
Find The Right Dryer For You
Cresco specializes in conveyor dryers including single-pass and multi-pass systems. We design equipment that meets sanitary and durability needs with easy installation and maintenance.
Single-Pass Conveyor Machines
A Cresco single-pass dryer provides efficient processing for a wide range of industries, from food to fiber. Single-pass dryers can include multiple temperature zones or stages, product turnovers, with steam heated or gas fired configurations.
Single-stage Dryers
Single-stage conveyors offer a uniform temperature along the length of the dryer, with a single continuous dryer belt. Cresco’s single-stage dryers are designed to optimize plant space, while maximizing the drying capabilities.
Multi-stage Dryers
Cresco’s multi-stage dryers are built to offer more control over the drying process with different temperature settings in each stage or zone. Multi-stage dryers allow you to customize each zone to alternate air flow for drying uniformity, reorient product gently, and more precise moisture control through the drying process.
Example shown: 3-Stage, Single-Pass Dryer

Multi Pass Conveyor Machines
Cresco’s multi-pass dryers are designed to provide a uniform end product while optimizing your plant space. These have multiple passes or levels to meet your process needs, dual-side air introduction, and variable conveyor retention times to enable optimum product uniformity.
Example shown: 5-Pass Dryer
