Infrared Reduces Textile Drying from Three Passes to One

APPLICATION CONCEPT  |  TEXTILE FINISHING

CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL INFRARED HEATING

PUBLIC CASE REFERENCE

Match medium-wave energy
to water-rich functional coatings.

A medium-wave infrared system improves coupling with the aqueous coating.

3 TO 1 REFERENCE PASSES

Reference data subject to application testing and specification review.

Infrared Reduces Textile Drying from Three Passes to One industry application

The Process Challenge

Water-rich flame-retardant finishes can require repeated passes through a long-wave dryer. Rehandling the fabric limits capacity and complicates the process.

The Infrared Approach

A medium-wave infrared system improves coupling with the aqueous coating. Power zoning and extraction support one-pass drying while protecting the textile substrate.

Application Features

  • Medium-wave energy suited to water-rich finishes
  • One-pass concept reduces rehandling
  • Extraction removes evaporated moisture
  • Power zones follow fabric width and pickup
  • Fast response supports product changes
