INDUSTRIAL OVEN
Equipment for paint drying Oven
The provision of an oven in a production shop
ensures speeding up of the paint drying
operation. Depending upon the rate of
production, the oven can be either batch type of
tunnel type.
Batch type Industrial Oven
This type of oven is largely used where there is
batch production and where the volume does not
justify a conveyorised installation.
Examples: General engineering workshops and
fabrication shops, where different types of
equipment are manufactured and production volume
is low.
Tunnel type Industrial Oven
This type of oven is preferred where production
volume is fairly large and continuous.
Examples: Continuous production plants
manufacturing sheet metals components for
Tractors two - wheelers, power tillers,
typewriters, fans, refrigerators, air
conditioners, etc.
Stoving methods
Stoving involves heat transfer from the heat
source to the coating or paint film and two
methods in general use for this purpose are
convection and radiation. The method of stoving
is recommended after taking into consideration
the size, weight, shape and material of the
component to be dried.
Convection heating Industrial Oven
Convection heating is carried out by heating the
air surrounding the article to be stoved. This
is generally done by having a heating chamber
where air is heated and the heated air is
circulated inside the oven chambers by means of
fans. Normal sources used to heat the inlet air
are electricity, gas, steam or oil.
Convection ovens are suitable for both batch and
continuous operation, depending on the work
load.
A limitation of the convection type oven is that
it will usually require to be started from
twenty minutes to half an hour before stoving
operations can begin. This is because the air
inside the oven will have to be heated to the
required temperature, and this takes time.
Normally, the temperature in a convection oven
is thermostatically controlled, so that the heat
and therefore the fuel consumption is regulated
depending upon the amount of work entering the
oven.
As the object is heated by circulation of air,
any shape and size of object can be dried by
convection heating.
This method is generally used for drying of
large castings, machined components and objects
having a non uniform weight distribution.
Radiation Heating Industrial Oven
This is attained by heating the source so that
the source starts emitting infra-red radiation
and this radiation heats up the paint film. The
infra-red emission can be directed towards the
object to be heated by means of suitably shaped
reflectors if necessary. The absorption of the
radiation takes place at the surface of the
charge, and infra-red heating is thus
essentially a surface heating process.
Since infra-red radiation is emitted in straight
lines from the source or reflector, plain
surfaces are most readily treated. In infra-red
paint stoving, the temperature attained by the
paint film depends upon the intensity of
radiation on the painted surfaces, the time of
exposure, and the mass of the article. The
colour of the paint also plays a part in the
speed with which the surface is heated. Black
paints tend to absorb more heat, whereas a
glossy white paint requires a longer time of
exposure.
For infra-red heating, infra-red gas burners
working of LPG gas, infra-red bulbs or infra-red
electrical heaters can be used.
Construction of drying ovens
The design of an oven is determined by many
factors, such as total heating capacity, shape
of the object to be dried, type and thickness of
insulation required, adequate exhaust
arrangement for removing the solvent fumes, and
a proper arrangement for location of burners and
heaters to ensure uniform heating. The
arrangement of burners or heaters should ensure
the provision of uniform heating across the
cross section and the length of the oven.
Stoving ovens are generally constructed out of
mild steel sheets with strengthening members and
supports on the outside and aluminum sheets on
the inside, with an adequate thickness of
insulation in between.
During regular operation, the temperature inside
the oven is automatically maintained at a
Pre-determined level with the help of
thermostatic controls in the case of electrical
heating and by temperature controllers operating
solenoid valves in the case of steam, gas and
oil heating.
Improved quality and durability of paint finish
can be achieved by providing proper facilities
for stoving the painted components. This
requires an oven of the right type, size and
having the correct stoving temperature. In many
cases, an improvement in the finish and
economics in paint costs can be achieved for
users of air drying paints, by adding stoving
facilities and changing over to enamel paints,
Paint Drying Oven or Paint Curing Ovens or Paint
Baking Oven
Paint Drying Ovens, also
referred to as Dryers or Paint Curing Ovens or Paint
Baking Oven removes the moisture from water-based
coatings and adhesives. Paint Drying Ovens are also
removes water from the surface or interior of
products with the help of thermostatic controls in
case of electrical heating and temperature
controllers operating solenoid valves in case of
steam, gas and oil heating. A Paint Drying Oven
dries the paint through the heated air that is re
circulated in the Oven. This is generally done by
having a heating chamber where air is heated and the
heated air is circulated inside the Paint Drying
Oven chambers by means of fans.
