Cyclone Energy-Efficient Ovens Optimize Drying Process for Cores, Molds, and More

Horizon Performance Technologies’ industrial ovens utilizing our patented Cyclone Technology significantly improve drying efficiency for cores, molds and other metal and composite parts during the finishing process. These innovative ovens address the industry's growing use of water-based core washes due to stricter environmental regulations on emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Fast and Efficient Drying: The Cyclone ovens utilize a high-volume, low-pressure airflow system that substantially reduces drying times, allowing for increased throughput without requiring a large oven footprint.
  • Precise Process Control: The Cyclone oven incorporates multiple drying zones for enhanced process flexibility. Engineers can precisely control temperature, airflow, and conveyor speed using the oven's advanced control system. Additionally, the system allows for optimized exhaust management for maximum efficiency.
  • Improved Core Quality: Customers have reported faster drying at lower temperatures, resulting in significantly improved core quality.
  • Energy-Efficient Operation: The Cyclone oven utilizes higher temperature rated, 5 HP turbine fans, rated to 1000°F (537°C), in each zone to deliver efficient airflow at minimal operating costs.
  • Durable Construction: The oven boasts a robust 3/16 inch welded plate construction and 6 inch thick mineral board insulation for exceptional durability and heat retention.
  • Advanced Heating System: The Cyclone oven employs direct fired Maxon APX excess air-fired burners with UV scanners for flame monitoring and FM-style ventless gas trains.
  • Versatile Belt System: The oven can be equipped with flat wire mesh belts, balanced weave belts, or chain edge belts that are drawn by a variable frequency drive (VFD) allowing for precise control of the feed rate.

Horizon ovens stand out with their patented Cyclone Technology, delivering exceptional economic and environmental benefits for manufacturers. This innovative technology not only reduces operating costs by up to 70% but also minimizes environmental impact, making Horizon ovens the perfect choice for businesses seeking sustainable and competitive solutions.
