Infrared Curing: Evaluating the characteristics of IR energy
Infrared (IR) energy can be used as a source of heat to cure a variety of industrial coatings. Such infrared curing applies energy to the coated part surface by direct transmission from an IR emitter, which can provide source temperatures of anywhere from 500 to 4,200°F
