Infrared heat for rubber, cables and plastics
At MICOR, we provide custom solutions for drying processes in the production of rubber, cables and plastics. Tailor-made. Space-saving. Energy efficient.
Are your production processes energy and cost efficient?
The highly productive production of rubber profiles, cables, hoses or plastics in particular involves a wide range of heating and drying tasks. High-speed and homogeneous heating of the material surfaces without excessive energy loss is essential here.
The MICOR *KIR technology increases production speeds while reducing costs at the same time.
With our MICOR *KIR technology, we make it possible to concentrate the heat radiation energy and transfer it without contact to the rubber profiles, cables, hoses or plastics. As a result, we can increase product quality, maximise production speeds and save space, costs and energy at the same time.
No matter whether you require pre-vulcanisation on rubber profiles, drying of primer or functional coating of cable materials: Our drying systems are individually tailored to reflect your processes and needs, so that you achieve the highest production results with the most efficient use of energy.
Benefits
Our short-wave IR drying systems reduce the temperature load on print substrate materials to a minimum while water and residual solvents evaporate, the dwell time in the dryer is shortened and the amount of primer energy required is significantly reduced.
