Vertical Curing Tower

Used commonly for silicone and PEX-A extrusion applications, PCS’s vertical curing towers are the ideal choice to maximize production run time and line speed.

System Highlights:

  • Liquid cooled chamber heaters able to achieve full operating output in 5 seconds from start up, and radiant energy dissipates to ten percent within 5 seconds from shutdown. No time spent waiting for system warm up or cool down.
  • Internal reflector design focuses emitted energy to the center of the chamber where product passes, maximizing system efficiency.
  • System frames customizable per customer line orientation requirements. Elevated servicing platforms available on request.
  • Product temperature monitoring at heater exit via pyrometer or infrared camera system.
  • Fully integrated control system allowing for user control of heater output, capstan speed, guidewheel positioning, cut frequency, and communications with extruder and downstream equipment.
  • Heater sizing optimized to match customer specific product diameters and line speed goals.
