 GEFEST drying kilns adapt to the following energy sources:

– Firewood and wood waste;
– Diesel, gasoline or liquid heating oil;
– Natural gas;
– Coal and other solid fuels;
– Electric energy;
– Energy of the Sun.

Engineering solutions of GEFEST developers’ which are helping you in your work, and also save energy resources and your money:

– Exclusive recuperation systems GEFEST RHE (in the standard factory configuration of GEFEST DKA+ drying kilns, or as optional additional equipment for the GEFEST DKA drying kilns). GEFEST RHE provides an additional opportunity to reduce the waste of thermal energy, with the operation of drying kilns, 2-3 times;
– Special Energy-saving designs of the cases of drying kilns;
– Heat-storage system of daily storage of thermal energy (the boiler works only 4 hours a day);
– Balanced thermal engineering system of drying kilns;
– High-grade software and hardware with exclusive firmware modes of timber drying;
– Control system of the technological process of drying (does not allow spoiling timber during drying);
– Individual adjustment of the control system for the technological process of simple rocks’ drying for untrained personnel.

GEFEST drying kilns and the technological processes that we supply with them, ensure:

– Defect-free drying with preservation of color, physical and mechanical properties of wood;
– Effective consumption of heat energy and electricity in 2-3 times less than in the best similar drying kilns of European production;
Quality drying of specific lumber:
– Lamellas of hard rocks with a thickness from 4 mm,
– Oak timber up to 250x250mm,
– Cylindrical log,
– Really “soft modes” of drying without the use of heat treatment (steaming-humidification), that is, in the drying process, only the moisture that is in the wood is used.
– Firewood and other materials;

Warranty obligations
– 1 year for equipment of kilns’ series DKT, DKB, DKA;
– 2 years for equipment of kiln’s series DKA+;
– 10 years for hulls.

With the purchase of an additional after-sales warranty service package, the warranty is valid for the duration of the package.
