Infrared Doubles Speed for Coated Corrugated Board

APPLICATION CONCEPT  |  PAPER & PACKAGING

CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL INFRARED HEATING

PUBLIC CASE REFERENCE

Dry the acrylic coating
without holding back the corrugator.

A wide carbon medium-wave infrared dryer adds controllable energy directly after coating.

2X REFERENCE LINE SPEED

Reference data subject to application testing and specification review.

Infrared Doubles Speed for Coated Corrugated Board industry application

The Process Challenge

Steam-heated rollers may not remove enough moisture from coated board. The coated grade can then run much slower than standard corrugated material.

The Infrared Approach

A wide carbon medium-wave infrared dryer adds controllable energy directly after coating. Zoning and extraction help match the 2.4 m web and changing line conditions.
