Ircon Solaronics GemDryer

GemDryer IR

Drying solution for non-contact drying and profiling after size press and coating stations from Ircon-Solaronics

A patented gas infrared, non-contact, drying solution developed specifically for the paper and board industry. Consisting of Gem infrared ceramic emitters and coanda blowing nozzles, this unique combination delivers optimal energy efficiency, minimising operating costs.

With up to seven years at nominal power, the Gem emitter has the longest proven lifetime on the market. What makes it unique is the constant radiant efficiency during this period. The high-density emitters offer the longest lifetime at the highest power resulting in the highest machine uptime and lowest maintenance costs.

Smaller footprint

GemDryer® can easily be integrated into the paper machine by virtue of its extremely compact size. For the same drying capacity, the system is at least 30% more compact than any conventional system. Able to operate at temperatures of up to 1,250°C, it provides maximum infrared output at an input up to 12 kW. Its high-power emitters have a high drying rate and reach the gel point quickly, therefore, binder migration and mottling are reduced, ensuring high printing quality.

OPTIONS INCLUDE:

  • Cross direction moisture profiling
  • Automatic web width selection
  • Fire Prevention System
  • ERS (Energy Recovery System).
    Efficiency can be improved even more through the ERS solution by recirculating the final exhaust air from the UniDryer® V3 into an air dryer.
