Improve the performance of Existing Electric Infrared Systems

Technology, market dynamic, need of processing, time to market and demand of end products are changing at very rapid rate across all verticals for business. Name a business it would see huge change in less than 2 – 5 years (for few its 1 year) this reduction in change cycle and evolving technological need to processing require you to be on the top with your processing requirements. But big question is that if you have installed a processing heating/drying unit today to improves its performance you cannot replace it frequently.

We are trying to help you with some recommendations that may help you improving the performance of your existing infrared heating system, if not more but you can achieve 15% to 30% improvement:

• Add Reflectors: IR work on principle of reflection, more the IR rays will collide with product/substrate under processing faster will be the process. Adding additional reflectors to sides and/or top and /or bottom of your IR oven will help you achieving more IR ray exposure to product.

• Keep it clean: It might be sounding very basic, but yes cleaned emitter and reflectors provide better emission of IR ray and reflection within the oven. This contributes to efficiency by more radiation on targeted substrate.

• Consider Zoning: Zoning refers to having multiple zone with different temperature configuration, different zoned oven results in better performance and efficiency by radiating energy appropriately on the product. Any type of zoning horizontal or vertical can be achieved by placing new emitters carefully of same or different wavelength.

• Movable infrared bank: Processing smaller and larger product happing with the amount of IR ray strikes product, hence having movable IR bank can help us in moving the bank near and far from the product for achieving maximum reflection.

• Sophisticated control mechanism: Improve the type of control systems placed. On top of providing zoning, control system can also deliver a variable control instead of simple on/ off control. Some systems employ “closed-loop” control that can accurately distribute the essential amount of radiant energy to the product, even for varying product size, shape, or colour, etc.

• Periodic Testing and maintenance: Ensure that periodic testing and maintenance activity is performed on the oven and emitters for correctness of operation and radiation. A data log can help in understanding the complete performance of systems.

• Involve experts: It always better to take advice from the experts such as Kerone, who can help you and guide you to make your process more efficient and cost effective, this will help you in keeping the pace with evolving technology.

Artificial Intelligence (A.I) in Food Industry

When discussing about the food industry, technology isn’t generally the first thought that comes to mind. But these days, technology in the food industry is a required part of food production and delivery processes. We find food through applications, and manufacturers produce it with the help of robotics and data processing. Tech could remarkably enhance packaging, increasing shelf life and food safety. The eminence of food is also improving while manufacturing costs are less. Knowing what better to produce in huge amount of numbers is the key to increase revenue. Customer and market insistence are changing very fast, so it is even more important to be one-step ahead of the competition. Explaining the most habitual tastes and preferences is the most praised thing for a food business owner as well as for a food manufacturer. For example, the newest trends in food tech are attached to a stream of healthy lifestyle followers. In order to recognize them, Machine Learning utilizes t

Different Types of Sterilization Process

Sterilization can be accomplished by an amalgamation of heat, chemicals, irradiation, high pressure and filtration such as steam under pressure, dry heat, ultraviolet radiation, gas vapour sterilants, chlorine dioxide gas etc. Successful sterilization strategies are necessary for working in a lab and negligence of this could lead to severe consequences, it could unexpectedly cost a life. So what are the more frequently utilized methods of sterilization in the laboratory, and how do they work? The Sterilization is conveyed out by the methods according to requirement. The methods are: 1. Moist Heat Sterilization 2. Dry Heat Sterilization 3. Gas Sterilization and Others. Moist Heat Sterilization: Moderate pressure is utilized in steam sterilization. Steam is utilized under pressure as a means of accomplishing an elevated temperature. It is dominant to confirm the accurate quality of steam is utilized in order to keep away the problems which follow, superheating of the steam, failure of

Microwave Continuous Vulcanization (CV) Rubber Curing Oven

Vulcanization is process of converting natural rubber or rubber polymers into more durable and mechanically strengthens rubber by the process of mixing sulfur and processing. This process results in changing the cross-linking bonds within the natural rubber and making bonds more strong and non-sticky. Vulcanization curing is achieved by heating the natural rubber or rubber polymer at very high temperature along with sulfur or any other agent, such high level of temperature rise results into changing of bond within the rubber and resulting in non-sticky, maker it lesser deformable when heated, and removes the brittleness this helps rubber to achieve the desired level of elasticity. Continuous Vulcanization curingprocess is most common process used for variety of application. In the process Continuous Vulcanization curing rubber and accelerator is put under high temperature and pressure, this mixture is passed through the continuous heating line during the process, some of C-H bo
