Aria IASF Technologies

Curing ovens are designed basically in two types to ensure compatibility with the application and industry in which it must be used.

ARIA Batch type curing ovens are designed to cure coated or bonded parts in a batch of few products to fit inside the cabin. This type of oven is used for very long curing time requirements and low to medium production volume requirements.

Essentially a batch type curing oven has doors on one side or both sides to ensure parts are transported with material handling system.

The part curing is undertaken in batches of 20 minutes or any ther desired curing time recommended by the paint manufacturer. Batch type curing ovens can cure wet spray painted parts and powder oated parts.

Wet spray painted parts require 70 degrees celsius temperature uniformly distributed inside the cabin. Powder coating ovens usually require 150 to 200 degrees celsius temperature unbiformly distributed in the cabin.

Applications of ARIA batch type curing oven:

Industries where in surface finishing of the products need to be achieved within 30 to 60 mins time as per the production throughput required. Finishing application usually utilizes batch type set up for large parts with less production volume requirement.

Industries where in Batch type curing ovens are used:

All industries requiring heat for their manufacturing process require batch type curing oven such as automotive manufacturing, railways and wagons manufacturing, ship building, pharmaceuticals, Aviation, oil and gas etc.

A camel back curing oven also called continuous operations curing oven has provision of overhead conveyor or floor skid type conveyor to ensure the job parts travel inside the cabin for required amount of time, the time required for curing defines the length or size of the curing oven as the parts need to be exposed to that temperature for continuous curing.

A continuous curing oven is a type of industrial oven used in manufacturing processes where materials need to be cured or hardened continuously. Here are some key features and aspects of a continuous curing oven Unlike batch ovens, which process materials in batches, continuous curing ovens operate continuously, allowing for a steady flow of materials through the curing process.

Overall, continuous curing ovens play a crucial role in modern manufacturing processes by ensuring efficient, consistent, and high-quality curing of materials on a continuous basis.

Applications of ARIA continuous / camelback curing oven:

All applications where in heat treatment is needed to achieve process completion or desired results for high volume production requirement. Heat treatment is required for finishing, bonding, expansion, altering substrate properties etc.

Industries where ARIA continuous / camelback curing oven are used:

All industries requiring heat for their manufacturing process require Continuous or camel back type curing oven such as automotive manufacturing, railways and wagons manufacturing, ship building, pharmaceuticals, Aviation, oil and gas etc.

We have standard sizes to suite maximum industries on our offering to ensure hassle free and quick delivieries apart from these standard sizes a complete customized solution is also available.

Aria Curing Ovens are designed to fit all applications and depending upon the production rate required and budgets of the client can have variations as below:

ARIA Curing Ovens can have mechanical convection for recirculating hot air inside the cabin to maintain the required temperature. These types of curing ovens are called mechanical convection ovens.

The heating systems involved in a curing oven are vast like heating elements, oil or gas burners, direct fired and heat exchanger aided all the various mechanical systems mentioned above depend on the temperature required and application for which the oven is being designed.

ARIA Curing ovens are designed to suit specific process requirements and to have maximum efficiency in utilization of fuels or energy.

Air curtains are installed on entry and exit of ARIA continuous operations curing ovens to enable heat retention.

The basic variation in construction of curing oven is the camel back design or flat floor. In a camel back design, the center section of the cabin is raised above ground to ensure the warmest air is naturally trapped in this raised region.

Flat floor construction may need to add air curtains at entry and exit to allow heat retention.

The wall panels of curing oven are selected to provide maximum heat retention to descrease fuel consumption. Aria cvuring ovens are built with rockwool mineral insulation which is best in class for curing oven insulations. Ideally curing ovens are built with 100 mm thick rockwool insulation to ensure heat retention,

Rockwool or mineral wool has excelent insulation properties and also is non flammable material making it most safest option for high temperature ovens.

ARIA Curing Ovens are ergonomically designed to balance efficiency and initial costs by offering three models as per client preference.

Centrifugal fans with belt drive are used for mechanical convection at appropriate to achieve 60 to 80 air changes every hour maintaining the temperature inside the curing oven to the set value.

ARIA Curing Ovens are 100% ATEX, ISO and EU compliant for construction.

ARIA Curing Ovens are designed to have safety interlocks and to ensure explosion relief in case of fires or heat exchanger explosions.

All ARIA Curing Ovens come mandatory with Electrical and mechanical certificate of compliance.

All mechanical equipment and electrical components used are from reputable brands.

Models of ARIA Curing Ovens

ARIA Curing Ovens are offered in three models like all the equipment offered by ARIA namely INIZIO, ESPERTO and ULTIMO.

ARIA INIZIO Curing Ovens: These are entry level ovens for startups and the best possible value for your money.

ARIA ULTIMO Curing Ovens: These are the best-in-class products with the ability to have energy efficiency equipment like VSDs for all motors, Explosion proof lighting and HMI and PLC systems to automate and enable remote monitoring and data acquisition.

ARIA Curing Ovens are constructed using 1.6 mm thick carbon steel sandwich panel panels with 100 to 200 mm high density rockwool insulation.

In high temperature application Stainless steel 316 or 304 is used to improve heat sensitivity of the wall panels.

The edges of all wall panels are double bent for extra strength.

All wall panels are modular in design tongue and groove for easy assembly and disassembly using nuts and bolts.

The construction of all equipment associated with curing ovens is compliant to ATEX, CE and ISO Standards.

High Efficiency centrifugal fans with turbo drive are used for recirculation or convection.

All light fittings are constructed with explosion proof casings certified by CE approved labs.

Heat exchangers are constructed with stainless steel 316 material and are pressure tested for its structural integrity before installation.

There is no minimum illumination required for curing ovens hence it is client preference to have light fittings inside the curing oven.

High temperature resistant light fittings are utilized in case of such a requirement.

The light fittings are strategically placed to ensure maximum visibility for the technician.

ARIA Curing Ovens are equipped with clean air filters to ensure no dust particles enter the cabin of the oven.

Optional pre-filters are supplied to ensure longer life of clean air filters in very dusty environments.

ARIA Curing ovens may need discharge ducting in case of certain epoxy resin curing where in fumes are emitted which need to be filtered and discharged safely as per local emissions standards.

Extra ducting required will be charged extra per length.

Ducting is constructed with 1.2mm thick sheet metal to avoid corrosion and extend life span.

In case of high temperature discharge the ducting is also constructed with stainless steel 316 material.
