可以根据不同产品精确地定义和控制干燥温度和在输送带上的停留时间。对于粘性、吸湿性、热塑性、短碳水化合物分子含量高或结晶缓慢的产品，也可达到极佳的干燥效果。
精确控制
FILTERMAT® 可独立控制干燥器不同位置的空气温度，因此可根据不同客户的需求精确控制粉末特性。细粒保留在粉末层内，可最大限度地减少产品浪费。
GEA 分散器整流器
FILTERMAT® 分散器整流器（DFS）是 GEA 的一项全新创新型产品。DFS 与集成式气动剃刀一起使用时，可在更高的入口温度和干燥能力下运行，而不会增加干燥器或气体分散器中燃烧或变色沉积物的风险。
它结构精巧，带有侧面安装的斜角喷嘴喷枪入口，可减少喷枪长度，使其易于调整，方便取放。侧装式设计可降低建筑物的高度，易于取放和拆卸，便于检查和清洗。双饲喂喷嘴系统允许在干燥器运行时更换喷嘴或清洗饲喂管路（CIP）。
与前几代 FILTERMAT® 气体分散器不同，全新 DFS 分散器只使用主气流，稳流系统(专利申请中)极大提高了气流均匀性。单一主气供给可使加热器系统更简化并且进气管更紧凑。

Key applications for the FILTERMAT®
Whey UF-permeate consists primarily of lactose, which in its amorphous state attracts water from its surroundings. By retaining the product on the band, the FILTERMAT® prevents lumping and supports uniform lactose crystallization into a stable, non-hygroscopic state.
The FILTERMAT® can reproducibly process high fat dairy products into free-flowing, agglomerated powders with the desired properties, for many different applications.
The FILTERMAT® allows you to reliably and efficiently spray dry non-dairy products that have a fat content of more than 60%.
The FILTERMAT® can be an ideal solution for drying a wide range of fruits and vegetables, and can process products such as orange powders with less carrier, or tomato powder with no filler, to give you higher value products with a higher concentration of product relative to filler/carrier, and commonly a more natural color.
GEA FILTERMAT® systems are used to reliably and efficiently spray dry hydrolyzed proteins and flavors, including fish and meat products, palatants and other pet food ingredients. In many cases you can use less carrier and better control Maillard reaction, to generate flavor products with a higher fat content than you could achieve using a traditional spray dryer.
Conventional hot air spray dryers may not be the best option for sensitive biomolecules such as fat-soluble vitamins, or lysed algae and yeast cells. The FILTERMAT® spray drying process can help to maintain product integrity and properties, and reduce the need for carriers, to give you a more concentrated, uniform and higher value product.
