Can I buy just one dryer or one pump?
Absolutely. Most of what we sell is single equipment. Buy one unit or build a whole plant, the expertise is the same either way.
Not sure which model you need?
Our applications engineers size the system from your resin, your rate, and your floor plan. Send those three and they take it from there, or call 410.789.4811.
Where is it built and supported?
Baltimore, Maryland. American owned and operated for 75 years, with engineering, manufacturing, and 24/7 U.S.-based support all here in the States.
Can you integrate with equipment we already have?
Yes, where the system allows it. SmartConveying retrofits onto Novatec conveying already on your floor, and MCS and OptiFlex central controls put every dryer, pump, and receiver on one screen. An applications engineer confirms the fit before anything is quoted.
What if something fails?
Every machine carries a 5-year standard warranty, and the NovaWheel desiccant rotor a lifetime one. Genuine parts and 24/7 U.S.-based support keep downtime short.
