Intermediate Dryer

What is an Intermediate Dryer? Where is it used?

In the Screen Part Printing Industry, which is an important sub-industry of the textile industry, Lamda Dryer is used intensively. Lamda Intermediate Dryer, which is mounted on the machine for shock drying of paint in part printing machines known as octopus, forms a part of the machine.

In octopus machines, in the case of printing more than one color on a piece of fabric, the first printed dye should be shock dried for 2-10 seconds and at a temperature range of 180 - 240 ºC before the other colored dye is printed. Otherwise, the wet paint will adhere to the silk screen mold in the other printing and deteriorate the product quality. Drying time varies according to dye and fabric properties. While plastic-based and white-colored paints take longer to dry, water-based and dark-colored paints dry in the shortest time. In addition, depending on the property of the fabric, while the fabric is damaged at high temperatures, the paint may not dry during this time. It is expected that the intermediate dryer will dry the paint in a short time and at the same time consume low electrical energy. Working conditions are difficult due to high temperature and vibration. However, the intermediate dryer must be able to operate for 24 hours without malfunction.

Lamda Intermediate Dryer is designed for octopus printing machines. However, our device can also be used for shock drying purposes in hand printing or non-fabric dye printing.
