Do it right and get a dryer. Search the many classifieds forums at U.S. Screen Print & Inkjet Technology
M&R Companies, Amscomatic, Nuarc has a used equipment email list and there are others out there | |  | |  | |
Thanks Richard
First can I check we are talking about the same thing. The quartz heaters I am referring to are the ones used to heat small spaces in rooms. They are available for considerably less than a commercial flash unit and would only require the construction of a metal stand to hold the unit.
I ask because the cost of commercial units in the uk is very expensive and even more so for tunnel dryers.
I read a lot of replies on the forum recommending a proper commercial tunnel dryer to do the job. That's fine, and of course correct, if you can afford such equipment. I suspect there are a lot of people starting out who can not afford all of the dedicated commercial equipment required and, need to seek solutions they can afford, myself included.
My real concern most of the time is "is it possible" because I already know the answer to "can I afford it" (No). Any thoughts welcomed??
