Wood Panel UV Coating Line IR Heating Leveling Machine IR Heating

Infrared flash off tunnel that levels the wet film and drives out bubbles. The IR heating leveller build, placed between the coater and the UV lamps.

Product Overview

IR Heating Leveling Machine For Ir Heating And Leveling For Uv Coating Lines

The IR heating leveller build, placed between the coater and the UV lamps.

An IR heating leveller heats the wet paint film within a short distance of the coater, so the film flows level and the bubbles and unevenness left by coating disappear before cure. An axial flow fan keeps internal air moving and temperature uniform. Working widths are 600, 1000 and 1300 mm on a 6120 mm long tunnel.

Key Benefits

What This Machine Changes On Your Floor

1

Infrared heating levels and dries the film in a very short time after painting

2

Axial flow fan makes the tunnel temperature uniform and eliminates air bubbles

3

Works on flat surfaces and on workpieces with some concave and convex relief

4

Can be used alone or together with an automatic jet and UV surface painting machine

Who It Is For

Plants That Buy This Machine

  • Spray lines drying solvent before the panel enters a dryer
  • Plants troubleshooting bubbles and orange peel in the cured film
  • UV coating lines that need a flash off stage before the lamps
Problems It Solves

What It Removes From Your Process

Quality Control

Checked Before It Leaves The Floor

  • Tunnel temperature profile measured along the 6120 mm length
  • Fan airflow checked against design
  • Sample panels run and inspected for bubbles after cure
Customisation Options

Specified Per Order

  • 600, 1000 or 1300 mm working width
  • Zone count and heater power set for your line speed
  • Connection to an upstream coater and downstream UV dryer
Comparison

How It Compares With The Alternatives

vs Going straight from coater to UV lamps

Without a flash off stage the bubbles in the wet film are cured into the finish

vs Vertical dryer

The IR tunnel levels the film in line. A vertical dryer gives long holding time in a small footprint

Use Guide

Setting The Machine Up For A Run

Set feed speed between 2 and 20 m per minute to match the coater

Bring the tunnel to temperature before the first panel

Check the film under raking light at the tunnel exit

Adjust heater zones if the film is levelling too late in the tunnel

Questions About This Machine

Is this model set up for IR heating and leveling for UV coating lines?

Yes. The IR heating leveller build, placed between the coater and the UV lamps. Every machine is built to order, so the configuration is confirmed against your own panel size and coating system before production.

What is the tunnel length?

6120 mm.

What is the feed range?

2 to 20 m per minute.

What does the IR leveller actually do?

It heats the wet paint film so it flows level and the bubbles and unevenness formed during coating disappear before cure.

Can it handle profiled work?

It suits flat surfaces and workpieces with a certain concave or convex relief.

Can it be used on its own?

Yes, alone or together with an automatic jet and UV surface painting machine.
