IR Ovens production

Oven system composition

The Oven consists of a steel Tunnel containing:
- the IR Halogen lamps complete with reflectors,
- the fumes extraction system,
- various screens and sheet steel covers reaching the ground.

An electrical board lets the user turn the lamps on/off and vary the power using a potentiometer.
The Oven is independent of the conveyor system and is designed to be able to adapt to any kind of existing roller conveyor or other transport system.

VERSATILITY/ADVANTAGES
The power of the oven can be adjusted to meet the requirements and suit the temperature of the material being processed (the material isn't overheated but heated just enough to reach the optimal temperature).
The lamps are instantaneous, and just take 2 seconds to reach max power (see figure).
The short waves produced by the Halogen Lamps have greater penetrating power than quartz or ceramic lamps.
The short waves heat the surfaces of the material directly without heating the surrounding air, while quartz/ceramic lamps heat the air first, which then transmits the heat to the material.
When the line is stopped, the material in the oven isn't overheated because the lamps are turned off and the temperature drops in a few seconds (see figure).
The homogeneous heating of the surface is guaranteed by the aluminium reflectors that optimize and diffuse the infrared rays over the material.
The compact design of the IR Halogen lamps makes it possible to keep the overall dimensions of the ovens to a minimum, and install them in restricted spaces.
