DTI-390 Forced Impingement Curing 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-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.
