Batch oven with double sliding door
The direct gas-fired batch oven has an inner space of 6.5 m long, 2.3 m wide and 2.4 m high. A modulating burner closely follows the heat demand. Because the oven is direct-fired, the energy from the flue gases stays inside the oven. The walls are made of ESTEE panels with 150 mm rock wool. The oven runs at 180 °C on average and an empty oven reaches temperature in about 30 minutes.
Powder booth with horizontal extraction
The booth is 6.5 m long, 3 m wide and 3.3 m high, with a passage opening of 1.8 m. Extraction runs through the rear wall: 14 antistatic filter cartridges are cleaned automatically with compressed air, at an extraction rate of 18,000 m³/h. Coating is done with a Wagner Sprint X manual unit.
Monorail with transfer car
A monorail system of about 115 m connects booth and oven. A transfer car with 5 tracks and pneumatic locking distributes the beams and carries up to 1,500 kg. The 10 traverse beams of 6 m each carry 500 kg.
Easy operation
Oven and booth are operated through touch screens, with an overview of the main parameters, trends, an alarm list and a weekly timer for automatic start and stop.
