DTI-244 Incline Drying Conveyor Oven
Customer directive
Our customer wanted to create an indexing single part flow inert atmosphere production furnace system to match, and seamlessly integrate into, the customer’s entire existing manufacturing process at a production rate of 45 seconds part to part. The customer’s then existing process included inefficient batch furnace staging of parts at this point in the process.
Description
The DTI-244 conveyor oven dries scrap magnesium prior to introduction into a melting furnace. An exhaust system removes and replaces moisture laden air during the process. The system conveys shredded pieces up the heated incline conveyor. The drying oven’s heated chamber is divided into two independent zones of temperature control. Airflow within the drying oven is vertical down to the product on the conveyor.
