Screen Printing Mesh Belt USA are essential for curing screen-printed products. These belts come in various styles to suit different applications, from small occasional-use ovens to large industrial dryers designed for high-volume output.
Types of Conveyorized Dryers
There are three main types of conveyorized dryers:
- Forced Air Dryers
- Infrared Dryers
- UV Conveyorized Dryers
Forced Air Dryers
Forced air dryers are used when the ink doesn’t need high-intensity heat. They can run with either PTFE screen printing belts or polyester monofilament mesh belts.
- Polyester Mesh Belts: Operate up to 248°F (120°C).
- PTFE Screen Printing Belts: Handle up to 500°F (260°C).
Infrared Dryers
Infrared dryers cure inks similar to those used in forced air dryers, including discharge, water-based, plastisol, and two-pack inks. PTFE mesh belts are ideal for these dryers, especially with reinforced edges.
- Belt Edge Reinforcements: PTFE films are best for infrared dryers, as PTFE-coated glass cloth and Kevlar types can crack due to intense heat and continuous flexing.
UV Conveyorized Dryers
UV dryers cure ultraviolet surface coatings applied to various products like glass, promotional items, and telecommunication products. PTFE-coated mesh belts are preferred due to their high-temperature rating.
