FAQ
Common questions drying and curing on coating lines.
What information do you need for a quotation?
Share coating type, substrate, line speed, and target cure—YFR engineers will recommend a suitable setup.
What coating processes are suitable for IR drying?
Can IR replace a full convection oven?
How do I avoid blistering, pinholes, or solvent pop?
How do I set distance, line speed, and power?
Metal vs plastic parts-do settings change?
What is the difference between short-wave and medium-wave IR for paint?
What controls or sensors are recommended?
In many cases IR is used as a preheat/flash-off or curing assist to shorten ovens. Full replacement depends on coating type, thickness, and line layout.
IR is commonly used for flash-of, drying,and curing assistance on coating lines for metal and plastic parts, improving speed and control.
Use staged heating, avoid excessive peak power, and add airflow/venting to remove solvents. Proper distance and zoning help stabilize the film.
Start with a safe distance and moderate power, then tune based on surface temperature,tack-free time,and final cure at your target line speed.
Yes. Plastics are more heat-sensitive and often need gentler heating and tighter control. Metals can tolerate higher flux and faster ramps.
Short-wave responds quickly for high-speed lines; medium-wave can provide gentler heating for certain coatings or substrates.
Zoned power control is essential. Non-contact temperature measurement and recipe control can improve repeatability across different parts/coatings.
