Fabric Pre-Dryer
Pre-Dry Fabrics - Woven, Knitted and Non-Woven
Casso-Solar Technologies Infrared Pre-Drying Systems are being used for standard and hard to handle fabrics such as flocked goods, non-woven synthetics and upholstery materials. Systems combine infrared with sufficient supply and exhaust air to provide overall efficiencies of 70-85%. Energy is safely removed from the product on line stoppage through the use of fast responding quartz heaters or our special "V" series foil heaters and precise control is achieved. Casso-Solar Technologies heaters concentrate their power in the useful wavelength regions where water absorbs best, resulting in the needed increased line speed. Temperature uniformities can be controlled to +/- 2 degrees F across the width of the product. pre dryers can be designed for use on horizontal or vertical tentor frames and between rolls prior to tentoring.
Pre-Heating/Post-Heating Fabrics for Laminating, Bonding or Heat Setting
Casso-Solar Technologies Infrared Pre-Heat and Post-Heat Systems can be used to quickly raise the temperature of a fabric for laminating, bonding or heat setting. Infrared Pre-Heat systems can accelerate the production of traditional thermo bonding calendar systems while minimizing floor space used. Infrared Post-Heat systems can quickly heat-set a fabric after processing.
A variety of system configurations and options can be supplied to meet all sorts of production needs. Multiple zones can be supplied across the width of the fabric to compensate for non-uniformities created by other equipment within the process line. Scanning non-contact temperature measuring systems can provide feedback for automatic control. Equipment can be built to process either vertically or horizontally moving product, allowing for flexibility of installation location. Casso-Solar Technologies works with both integrators and end users to supply equipment for both new installation and retrofits.
