Symptoms Of A Bad Paint/Powder Drying Oven

How to know if your paint or powder curing oven is giving you issues? The paint curing oven is one of the most important part of your painting line and a bad curing oven can lead to a lot of risk and decreased productivity. Your curing oven should be able to satisfy all cure  parameters and perform consistently.

Some of the side effects or symptoms of  poorly designed paint curing oven are heat loss, chipping, poor airflow, orange peel, poor adhesion, difference in gloss, uneven colors/shade mismatching, poor chemical resistance, poor corrosion resistance etc. To avoid all these issues the paint curing oven must be designed properly with proper air flow and efficient heat exchangers (indirect heating). Prism ovens are well designed and known for their temperature accuracy. This is achieved through an effective air seal between the oven and the outside ambient conditions. Prism can supply various types of paint or powder curing ovens which include A Zone ovens, camel back ovens, ground mounted ovens and also IR ovens.
