Abstract

The invention relates to apparatus for determining the timewise progress of the drying of a damp material sample. The material sample is continually connected to a movable part of a weighing mechanism during the drying process, and the delivery of the drying air stream can be interrupted in time with the weighing. Such apparatus facilitates automatic determination of the drying progress curve.
