Epcon Industrial Systems

  The Challenge A metal processing application for the aerospace industry was need and advanced design and control system for batch ovens equipped with high accuracy operating parameter requirements.  Throughout the metal curing process temperatures and other operating parameters in the oven must be controlled accurately in real-time with minimal delays. The production of adhesives or various polymers materials and their bonding to the metal surface is a highly temperature-sensitive process, temperature affects the reaction kinetics and, more importantly, the atomic structure of the particular substance. The conversions of the atomic structure configurations occur at a specific temperature, and reaching the peak temperature target is essential for manufacturing  durable and high strength materials. Additionally, the curing process is often highly demanding in terms of the need for multiple sessions with different retention times and operating conditions. The issue ...

Epcon Industrial Systems designed, built and shipped a state-of-the-art multi-zone conveyor oven system that will be used to cure internal linings for 55-gallon drums. The effective heating zone oven measures 100 feet long x 6 feet wide x 6 feet, 6 inches high. The custom-designed oven has three independently controlled heating zones operating at a temperature range of 350-600°F and three dual-lane conveyor systems to process the drum and the top/bottom lids simultaneously. The dual-lane conveyor systems offer the end-user the advantage of minimizing floor space and reducing the operating cost by approximately 30% compared to a conventional approach of installing separate oven systems for drum and lids.

There are various processes where temperatures and other operating parameters in the oven must be controlled accurately in real-time with minimal delays. Taking a metal curing process as a viable example, we must acknowledge that the production of adhesives or various polymers materials and their bonding to the metal surface is a highly temperature-sensitive process. The temperature affects the reaction kinetics and, more importantly, the atomic structure of the particular substance. The conversions of the atomic structure configurations occur at a specific temperature, and reaching the nearest temperature to target one is essential for manufacturing durable and high strength materials. One of the most troublesome issues in industrial ovens applications is maintaining the target temperature uniformly across all oven sections. The excessive production demands and the highest quality products are followed by overwhelming operating costs, especially in the aerospace industry. Manufactur...

Aluminum Parts Drying Oven Dry-off or drying ovens are a critical final step in many production processes with temperatures that can range from just above ambient up to 1000°F. Utilized across a wide range of applications, these ovens are not only useful for simple dry-off requirements for parts production, but also used for more complex moisture reduction and sterilization processes with stringent temperature and uniformity ranges. Recently, Epcon designed a drying oven as part of a larger metal finishing system for a new facility for an Aluminum parts producer. Located at the exit end of the Washline, the oven dries the parts so they are ready for the final painting and curing stages. By utilizing advanced airflow management and comprehensive heat recovery methods, Epcon’s engineers were able to maximize the overall operating thermal efficiency. Integrating the drying ovens into the comprehensive system design allows for thermal recycling and greatly reduces fuel consumpt...
