DTI-1182 Vertical Drying Oven
CUSTOMER DIRECTIVE
Our customer wanted to create an indexing single part flow inert atmosphere production furnace system to match, and seamlessly integrate into, the customer’s entire existing manufacturing process at a production rate of 45 seconds part to part. The customer’s then existing process included inefficient batch furnace staging of parts at this point in the process.
DESCRIPTION
The DTI-1182 vertical drying oven is used to heat a product web and remove moisture (solvents) from the product by heated evaporation. The system includes 2 LEL monitors with multiple alarm functions and display screen. The system is designed to accommodate a web up to 40″ wide. The oven chamber is designed to allow the product to make 3 vertical passes (up and down). The oven includes 3 applicator tanks located under the heated chamber. These tanks contain the solvents and the web passes through the tanks to apply the solvents to the web. Each applicator tank includes a pneumatic system to raise the tank to the “in use” position or lower the tank when not in use or being cleaned. A wiper bar is included above each tank (prior to the oven chamber) to allow the thickness of the coating to be adjusted. The oven includes a power edge trim rotary knife that trims both edges of the web as it exits the oven chamber. A system is provided prior to the take up roll that applies a small amount of powder to the web. This prevents the layers of the web from sticking together after is rolled up on the take up roll.
