Replacing gas-fired systems also reduces the emission of NOx. Because IR ovens are modular, they make production lines easy to expand and upgrade. In addition, IR can be used on any heat-curable coating. Cleaner and cooler. Since IR technology heats the coating, not the air around it, and does not use jets of air, the work environment stays cooler and cleaner.
Smaller ovens result in more usable floor space.
Electric IR emitters have a very long life and need minimal routine maintenance. Together, IR drying and IR curing can process almost any coating on almost any surface. However, there are some products and surfaces better served by UV curing technologies. SCE's Online Privacy Policy Copyright 2000 Southern California Edison. All Rights Reserved.
