High Density Electric Infrared Curing Tunnels

CSI has developed a range of R6 high density infrared curing tunnels to cure solvent or powder paints on steel or aluminum coils running at variable speeds (up to 50 meters per minute) for gauges ranging from 0.2 to 2 mm.
These installations use high power density that can reach 700 kW/sqm. The high density electric infrared curing tunnels can be either vertical or horizontal and can be integrated into a new line or an existing line that does not allow hot air alternatives or with limited space.
CSI tunnels are adapted to LEL standards with full or partial separation of the electric IR emitters from the process air. The quantities of air injected into the process air can be regulated to optimize operation of the incinerators or other pollution control systems.
The almost immediate response of infrared technologies is a significant advantage for lines with various productions to reduce transitional phases as much as possible and associated production losses. This feature, combined with one or more pyrometric control loops, allows reliable curing and controlled changes in speed, size and thickness.
High density Infrared technologies also optimize power use by selecting radiation width according to the selected web width. This saves a significant amount of energy.
Finally, CSI high density electric infrared curing tunnels are designed for quick and efficient maintenance (panels mounted on drawers, easy access to wear parts, etc.).

Our final customers are based in Belgium, Spain, Slovakia but also in United Arabian Emirates, Kenya and Nigeria.
