QUALITY FINISH PAINTING IN YOUR VEHICLE
A paint drying system is a vital component in the world of automotive finishing and industrial painting. It’s the technology that transforms freshly applied wet paint into a durable, flawless finish. Let’s dive in deeper about the paint curing system that you should actually need to know.
Paint ‘drying’ happens when the solvents evaporate from your paint coating, leaving the paint feeling dry to the touch—even though it is not 100% dry. Whilst paint ‘curing’ happens when your paint coating is completely hardened and fused to the wall
Usually, the paint baking is the typical drying method for the crosslinked type paints. Currently, paint drying equipment are roughly classified into hot air convection type, radiation type, and electromagnetic wave curing type, and each method is used individually or used in conjunction.
Hot air Convection Curing type
Convection is defined as the transfer of heat by circulation of a heated fluid such as air or water. In a paint curing scenario, this could include simply leaving an object to air dry with no special equipment, or it could involve the use of heated air. An example of a convection method for paint curing could also include a convection oven or a spray booth. In both examples, objects will be placed inside a relatively small area and contained area where hot air will circulate.
Infrared Curing
Of course, we are specialists with this technique! Infrared curing is where a painted surface will be positioned in front of several infrared panels. These infrared panels will then work to cure the paint with a powerful energy source. Infrared is a type of radiation energy that is invisible to the naked energy, but it is extremely powerful and can reach high temperatures, making it perfect for advanced jobs such as automotive repairs.
Infrared guarantees much shorter curing times that a lot of other paint curing techniques, especially convection methods such as air drying. Infrared paint dryer can penetrate tough surfaces and it heats up whatever surface it is facing, as opposing to heating the surrounding air.
Key reasons in Designing Your Automotive Drying Room for Optimal Curing…
