Intelligent application solutionsInfrared heat for coatings
Beschichtung von Lagern mit Infrarot-TrocknungEvery coating process is different but  all processes share the common require-ments of the highest possible quality and the fastest possible drying of the coating. With standard heat sources  this is often no longer possible.In the drying of coatings it has already been proven, that infrared radiation can penetrate to the required depth in the coating system and to dry the coating film from inside outwards. Skin- or blister-formation on the surface is  prevented and drying of the coating  is speeded up. The result is a brilliant surface quality that meets specification. Infrared energy, which is matched  precisely with the product and coating, is quickly converted into heat, water  or other solvents are evaporated, while the material and the local environment remain cool.


Applications:
  • Drying of water based coating
  • Curing of powder coating
  • Drying and activating of adhesives

Technology:
  • Infrared emitters matching exactly to the product
  • quick response times for a better control  
 
Advantages:
  • Transfer of high power in short time 
  • contact free heating
  • better quality
  • saving of energy and space
