DTI-390 Forced Impingement Curing Oven

DESCRIPTION

The DTI-390 conveyor oven cures automotive disc brake pads.  This system is designed to work in conjunction with a ten-press automated system, providing continuous curing capabilities.

Formed parts are shuttled from ten individual presses to the oven entrance. Each press feeds one lane in the oven to allow ten parts across the belt width to be processed together. The oven is designed so that the belt conveys product through the oven in a manner, keeping pace with press production to provide continuous operation. The five individual zones of temperature control provide the ability for unique temperature profiles.

AUTOMOTIVE SUPPLIER ADVANTAGES:

• Elimination of batch processes and associated labor cost of handling product
• Reduces work in process
• Each part receives equal airflow resulting in shorter cure cycles, as much as 75%, as compared to cure cycles of parts being produced in baskets in a batch process
• Shorter cycle times equate to less energy required for production
• Parts immediately entering cure oven reduces the required energy per part for cure cycle by utilizing heat absorbed by each part during press cycle
• Reduces required labor force

AUTOMOTIVE OVEN FEATURES:

• Oven is gas heated
• Five (5) independent zones of heating
• Cooling and Heating provided in the same piece of equipment
• PLC Controlled with operator touch screen (HMI)
