Drying & Curing Ovens

Curing Ovens are high temperature ovens typically used for curing Powder Coated finishes, around 200°C - 230°C.

Drying Ovens are lower temperature ovens or Drying Rooms used to dry product after painting or after cleaning processes such as after pre-treatment.  These can be as low 40°C up to 150°C.

They typically heat recirculating air using a gas burner or electrical element. A small bleed of air is taken from the oven to maintain pressure and help remove any gases released from the heating process.  Pressure Relief is built into each oven to prevent explosion.

All ovens have insulated walls with thermal breaks designed to help keep the outside of the oven cool.

  • Manufactured from Galvanised Steel and Aluminium Coated Steel
  • Gas Burner or Electric Heating Elements
  • Insulated wall and door panels
  • Can be made for conveyorised systems on request

More on Ovens

These are Industrial Ovens used for the curing of powder coated finishes with high efficiency and accurate temperature control. The curing process for the powder is necessary to strengthen the coating as it sits on the surface as a loose powder. Most powder coatings such as thermoset powders normally cure at temperatures of 200°C for 10 to 15 minutes before being left to cool. The exact temperature and the length of time required to cure can vary depending on the manufacturer's specifications and other factors such as the size and mass of the object, as well as the efficiency of the oven and thickness of the coating.  It's important to cure the metal at the appropriate temperature to get the right durable finish.  

The standard oven is a closed enclosure, fully insulated on all walls, ceiling and doors.  Airflow is recirculating type where the air is pulled over a modulating gas burner for accurate temperature control.  Pressure relief is built into the oven along with a constant purge taking off around 10% of the airflow. 

These are Industrial Ovens used for drying products after different processes.  This could be after the application of wet paints or after washing product through a jet wash or pre-treatment unit.  These typically run at lower temperatures of around 100°C to 160°C but can be set to suit your requirements. The exact temperature and length of time needed to dry product evenly will depend on the size and mass of the object and the medium to be dried, i.e. paint or water.

These are typically rooms to provide a clean ventilated area to allow paint finishes to dry naturally in a controlled environment.  These typically run at lower temperatures of around 30°C to 50°C where personnel can enter the room whilst it is running, but can be set to suit your requirements.

Providing Complete Finishing Solutions

Preparation
Preparation

Equipment to prepare for finishing. This includes Pre-Treatment Units, sanding benches and Paint Kitchens.

Painting

Containment Equipment for Painting.  Powder Coating and Wet Paint Spraying are the most common.

Finishing

For the best results, use Drying and Curing Ovens to complete the finishing processes.

Drying and Curing Ovens can be built into continuous conveyorised systems that have no doors and air purge seals to minimise the escape of hot air.
