The innovation process of a revolutionary dryer (NLPD) will be discussed. Innovation in the seed industry is held to confidentiality and there is a need for engineering and process technology. How to organize an innovation project in such a field of tension.
Seed technologists and engineers together shaped a new dryer which enables better desiccation tolerance of seed lots especially after a humid seed enhancement treatments. Extensive testing and modifications have resulted in a dryer (NLPD) which is ready to use. Set your recipes, process technology controls the process, data logging is secured and many functions are available. The technology as such is scalable.
The result: there is potential for the seed sector to innovate with help of mechanical engineering and process technology, while respecting confidentiality.
