Hi Vasile The temp and moisure content vary. Temp is dependant on the amount of steam being fed into the dryer drum, and the speed of the machine - both operator set. The moisture content varies depending on what the product requirement is - budget to luxuary and many stages inbetween. This doesnt mean that it cant be calibrated according to the conditions - it will just make it a very complex measurement.
