IR Ram edge drying process is used to dry the starch applied at the entrance to make edge cutting in ram machines.
Advantages of ram edge drying systems
Cola, water, etc. applied for edge cutting. It decreases the material passing rate as it dries late compared to the materials. IR systems are used as edge dryer and increase the speed of passage.
In the stenter machines, the fabric edges cannot get the desired heat due to the chain or rail systems on the edge of the machine. Therefore, the fabric edges dry later than the middle section. Thanks to IR systems, the edges are dried in equal times with the middle section and increase the speed of fabric transition.
