Trimac offers convection, gas catalytic and electric
infrared systems. " Convection is a great technology, but you
need a significant amount of plant space, " says Sawyer. " I
can combine all three technologies if I need to, but the idea
is about which technology is optimal for that location. And
it's a different set of questions for different customers with
a variety of parts. How much space do they have? How much
throughput do they need? How are the parts hung? All of
those things factor into which technology or combination of
technologies is going to be optimal. "
When approaching custom systems, Bozdilsky says, " We
must understand the production rates required to meet
customer needs. This helps us determine if the customer
requires a batch, indexing or continuous system. Part size
and shape is also important when designing a heating system
and distribution ductwork. Based on part geometry, available
plant space and specifications, we are able to determine if a
combination oven is the proper choice. The part material
must also be considered as aluminum reacts differently with
IR compared to carbon steel. So testing is very important
when considering IR to cure or gel powder paint. "
Catalytic Industrial Systems (CIS) offers gas catalytic
IR systems and combination units with convection. ShihShin
Chou, vice-president of sales and marketing says
that gas catalytic IR ovens offer significant advantages
over convection when it comes to powder curing thinner,
less complex parts. However, convection outperforms gas
catalytic IR when it comes to parts with complex shapes. But
if you combine the two technologies and use IR for gelling the
powder and cure it with convection, you get the best of both
worlds.
