IR Thermal Interstation Dryers for Printing

IR Thermal specializes in designing and manufacturing custom Interstation Dryers to meet specific end user requirements. Interstation dryers are used in the printing industry, particularly in flexographic printing, to dry ink quickly between printing stations using infrared radiation. They offer several advantages that enhance production processes and print quality. 

  • Speed and Efficiency – Our Interstation dryers rapidly evaporate solvents or water from the ink, allowing for higher production speeds and reduced downtime between colors. This is crucial for meeting tight production schedules and increasing output.
  • Print Quality Enhancement – By ensuring quick and even drying, the dryers prevent issues like smudging, ink set-off, and uneven finishes. This results in sharper color definition and better overall print quality, which is essential for high-quality printed materials.
  • Small Footprint – Interstation dryers have a small footprint allowing targeted energy input to where it is needed
  • Versatility and Environmental Impact – IR Thermal’s Interstation dryers are compatible with a wide range of inks, including water-based and solvent-based varieties, and can handle various substrates like paper, plastic films, and cardboard. Their compatibility with water-based inks supports sustainable practices by reducing volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, aligning with environmental goals.
  • Design and Safety Features – Their compact and customizable designs make them suitable for space-constrained environments, and some models offer safety features like cooler exteriors, reducing burn hazards for operators.
