he Thermoreactor® invented by Sunkiss Matherm is a radiant panel-style drying apparatus that uses gas catalytic combustion technology to produce infrared radiation. It transfers active energy to the very core of coating by sending electromagnetic waves across a very broad infrared spectrum. These waves constantly fluctuate and are absorbed perfectly into all organic coating (paint, glue, water, etc.).
This radiant energy is augmented by the movement of reheated air at the surface of the Thermoreactor®, substantially reducing the time required for drying, fusion and polymerisation. The Sunkiss Matherm drying tunnel features special components, has a unique operating mode and stands out also for its infrared techniques. In addition, its radiation efficiency is amongst the best.
UNKISS MATHERM’s infrared technology is renowned for its excellence for paint drying and curing but it also offers benefits to other industrial sectors that have similar requirements in terms of efficiency and quality.
| Examples of industrial application of the infrared radiant unit |
