IR/Convection Oven for European Regions (TC Series)
Ideal for mid-to-high volume production, the in-line Thermal Cure (TC) ovens feature a flexible, CE-compliant design with infrared panels and exclusive heat dispersion plates to ensure optimal heat transfer by convection
- Flexibility is increased with four different lengths available to match your production requirements
- Unique downdraft exhaust design provides an efficient, safe path for VOC removal
- Control your process with individual heating zones that can be programmed for specific drying or curing profiles
- Increase productivity with a fast warm-up and cool-down
- Easy access to interior subassemblies aids preventive maintenance and cleaning
The TC series high-performance heating module integrates easily with Nordson ASYMTEK’s conformal coating systems and provides precise, repeatable, closed-loop control of the conveyor speed and internal thermal environment. Users can manage process controls, system parameters, and events through an intuitive graphical interface that runs on Windows®-based software.
The TC series offers several benefits and capabilities to match and enhance your production requirements. The oven is available in four different lengths and the unique downdraft exhaust design provides a safe path for VOC removal. The individual heating zones can be programmed for specific drying or curing profiles, and the fast warm-up and cool down cycles help to increase productivity. Easy access to the interior subassemblies simplifies cleaning and preventive maintenance tasks.
Some additional features include: the ability to configure heating zones to meet specific application requirements; the dimensionally SMEMA-compatible conveyor for smooth integration into an existing production line; and CE-certification to ensure conformity with the safety and quality standards in the European Community.
