A system includes at least one sensor and at least one controller. The at least one sensor is configured to generate a first weight signal corresponding to a first weight of a first lot of substrates, and a second weight signal corresponding to a second weight of a second lot of substrates. The at least one controller is coupled to the at least one sensor to receive the first weight signal and the second weight signal. The at least one controller is configured to convert a weight difference between the first weight and the second weight into a number of substrates each having a predetermined weight. The at least one controller is further configured to, based on the converted number of substrates, control a processing apparatus to rotate the first lot of substrates and the second lot of substrates simultaneously.

A tumbler may be used as defluidizer, dryer, coater, classifier, or dynamic filter. The tumbler includes a rotatable drum that receives a solid/fluid slurry through an inlet chute. As the slurry travels through the drum, fluid exits the drum through a plurality of apertures in screens attached to the sides of the drum, while the solids continue along the drum's length until they reach one or more openings and exit the drum into an outlet chute. The outlet chute includes ridges that wrap around rings extending from the openings of the drum to prevent solids from escaping the outlet chute. To further dry the solids before they exit the drum, an air tube at least partially disposed within the drum is configured to introduce a flow of air into the drum.

The Rotary dryer comprises a dryer receptacle having an inner space for receiving herbaceous material, a driving device for rotating the dryer receptacle about a rotation axis of the dryer receptacle, and a channel-shaped collector being at least partially open in its upper portion provided in the inner space of the dryer receptacle for collecting dried herbaceous material.

The dryer comprises a dryer receptacle having an inner space for receiving herbaceous material, an access assembly providing access to the inner space of the dryer receptacle, and a heating system comprising at least one access heating element for actively heating the access assembly. The access assembly comprises at least one of an inlet conveyor for supplying herbaceous material into the inner space of the dryer receptacle and an outlet conveyor for removing herbaceous material from the inner space of the dryer receptacle. The at least one access heating element comprises a conveyor heating element incorporated into the conveyor.
