In 1949 a Chicago company introduced a wood drying kiln that used infrared lamps that they claimed reduced the standard drying time from 14 days to 45 ...
This must have high starting torque to start the kiln with a large eccentric load. A 6 m × 60 m (20 ft × 197 ft) kiln requires around 800 kW to turn at 3 rpm. The speed of material flow through the kiln is proportional to rotation speed; a variable-speed drive is needed to control this.

The first kiln of this class was put into operation on November 22, 1859 [2] in Scholwin (since 1946, Skolwin), [3] near Stettin, which was then part of Prussia. In 1867 there were already 250 of them, most in the Prussian part of Germany, fifty in England and three in France.
A rotary kiln of 6 x 100 m makes 8,000–10,000 tonnes per day, using about 0.10-0.11 tonnes of coal fuel for every tonne of clinker produced. The kiln is dwarfed by the massive preheater tower and cooler in these installations. Such a kiln produces 3 million tonnes of clinker per year, and consumes 300,000 tonnes of coal.

The kilns were anagama-style underground kilns; they became larger from the middle to the end of the 6th century, with many having a total length of over ten meters from the end of the 6th century to the first half of the 7th century, and from then on they became smaller. During the period when kilns were larger, many were perforated flue kilns ...
