IR infrared heating units from BBC for drying solvent ink prints from Mimaki, Mutoh, Roland
Optional infrared IR dryers for lite-solvent HP Designjet 9000s, HP 10000s, HP 8000sWhile visiting a large and successful printshop in the US, I noticed that their optional infrared IR dryer for their HP Designjet 10000s was rolled out of the way and sort of permanently parked away from the lite solvent printer. So I asked why the HP Designjet High Speed Dryer was not in front of the solvent printer. They answered that the optional HP dryer that came with the printer was not adequate, and that they had ordered a Black Body IR dryer from BBC Industries in Missouri. Since Nicholas Hellmuth grew up in St Louis, it is little surprise that he has had an office here for many years. So recently he visited BBC Industries in their new and larger factory in Pacific, Missouri. In the future we hope to have photographs and evaluation of the BBC IR heater/dryer system for solvent printers. BBC Industries, Black Body IR heaters for drying solvent printersDD54-1000-120-DS, DD64-120-120V-DS, DD72-1350-120V-DS are a few of the models of IR solvent ink drying equipment that BBC industries offer. BBC also offers 220V versions of most of these.
Compare prices for other optional IR infrared heaters dryersIf you do cost comparisons you end up finding mention of other external IR dryers for solvent printers. But I have not seen any of these at ISA or SGIA or even FESPA. Since I see BBC Black Body IR dryers everywhere, I do not have any information on the other brands. DU-540 dryer and blower system for Roland DRI offers radient electric drying and heating systems, but I have not seen any DRI units at ISA or SGIA, whereas I see BBC Industries Black Body IR dryers at major international trade shows frequently. PAT Technology offers their PAT Captivair charcoal filter purification system also has an infrared dryer. But if you simply want to dry the solvent ink prints, then if you compare prices, a Black Body Digi Dry IR dryer from BBC Industries is lower cost. BBC Industries also makes a dye sublimation dryerBBC Industries also makes a dye sublimation dryer, their Model DSD70-10600, 240V-DS.
