Case Study: Fluid Bed Dryer Filter Bag
Introduction
Fluid bed dryer filter bag is the key part used in the FBD. Its main function is to capture and filter dust and particles generated during the drying process to prevent them from entering the air, thereby protecting environment and operator health as well as extending the lifespan of fluid bed dryer. It is widely applied in the pharmaceutical, chemical, food and other industries.
There are many FBD filter bags manufacturers and each has its characteristics, but Senieer fluid bed dryer bags adopts unique anti-static technology which is the top 1 in this field as for now. The Senieer FBD filter bags can ensure the static ≤103Ω, which can avoid the dust stick onto the surface of filter bags due to static accumulation, and reduce the safety risks caused by the electrostatic discharge.
The following is the case of FBD filter bags.

Background Information
A leading pharmaceutical manufacturer came to us with issues related to their Fluid Bed Dryer (FBD) operations. This company had been using standard FBD filter bags which they sourced from various suppliers. However, these filter bags were consistently failing to meet their operational requirements during the process of usage, leading to increased downtime and high maintenance costs. The following are some of the problems this client encountered.
Problems Encountered By Client
Because the fluid bed dryer filter bags originally used by the client were purchased from other merchants, some problems occurred.
1. Poor Stitching
The stitching on the standard filter bags often came undone, leading to leaks and inefficiencies in the drying process of fluid bed dryer.
2. Short Lifespan
The filter bags frequently needed replacement, disrupting production schedules and increasing operational costs.
3. Subpar Material
The material of the original filter bags was not durable enough to withstand the rigors of continuous use, leading to frequent breakage.
4. Frequent Breakage
The filter bags often tore during use, causing contamination risks and reducing overall process efficiency.
5. Difficult Installation
The filter bags were difficult to install, requiring much time and effort from the maintenance team, further leading to downtime.
In response to the above problems, client hope that we can improve the shortcomings of the original filter bags, improve the quality of the filter bags, and extend their service life.
Senieer Solution
Recognizing the serious impact of these issues on the operation of their fluid bed dryers, the client decided to seek a customized solution. Then they contacted Senieer for assistance.
Senieer collaborated closely with this client to understand their specific needs and requirements. After thorough analysis and consultations, we proposed the solution of customized FBD filter bags tailored to their exact requirements.
1. Enhanced Stitching
We reinforced the stitching on the filter bags to ensure they could withstand the pressures of the drying process without coming undone.
2. Longer Lifespan
By selecting high-quality and durable materials, the lifespan of the filter bags are significantly extended, reducing the need for frequent replacements. If use every day in the normal frequency, the shelf life of Senieer filter bags is about 6~8 months.
3. Superior Materials
The renewed filter bags were made from premium, pharmaceutical-grade materials that could endure continuous use without breaking down.
4. Improved Durability
The new filter bags were designed to be able to resist tearing and breakage, minimizing the risk of contamination and ensuring a smooth drying process. The vibration function of Senieer filter bags ensures there is no dust and materials sticking onto the surface of filter bags by vibrating the filter bags.
5. Easy Installation
We streamlined the design of the filter bags to make them easier and quicker to install and operate, reducing the difficulties of operation and maintenance. We adopted the hook suspension system to support the filter bags, Direct alignment, the hook adopting a rotary structure, without twisting the bag, which has the features of easy installation, excellent sealing performance, stable structure and convenient maintenance.
After dedicated discussion and research, clients finally received satisfied fluid bed dryer filter bags produced by Senieer in one month later.
