Curing Oven
The material is transferred through the curing oven between the upper and lower conveyor with the use of lamellas. The chain wheels on the output side are driven by individual engines with speed regulators. Every conveyor has two pulling chains connecting both sides of the robust lamella. The upper conveyor is installed on a vertically moving frame; the bottom conveyor is installed on a fixed frame. The distance between the conveyors can be adjusted in order to obtain products of different thickness. The adjustment is executed by setscrews located on both sides of the curing oven. All setscrews are adjusted by one engine through propeller shafts and worm wheels. The hot air for curing carried from the combustion equipment is blown through the wool vertically. To prevent leakage of the hot air into the surroundings, the curing oven is under-pressurized.
Curing Oven Exhaust Cleaning System
Hot air is transferred to the curing oven to cure the binding agent in the non-cured wool. Emissions from thecuring oven are purified in the combustion chamber and they are used for preheating the lamellas before discharge into the atmosphere. The hot air circulation system consists of 2 circulation ventilators, heating chamber and necessary piping. The combustion chamber and heating chamber are equipped with automation for regulation of the flame and temperature. In case of fire in the hot-air or combustion system, the fire extinguishing system is started manually.
