Industrial Infrared Drying Ovens

Yes, Fannon Products manufactures a full range of infrared ovens and drying systems. Options include custom infrared ovens for automotive, plastics, printing, food, electronics, textiles, and glass-ceramics applications, as well as standard LightSpeed inkjet drying systems and near-infrared modules available in multiple wattage and voltage configurations.

Infrared drying works by emitting electromagnetic radiation that is directly absorbed by the target material, converting energy to heat without heating the surrounding air. This results in faster drying cycles, lower energy consumption, and precise temperature control. Short-wave, medium-wave, and fast medium-wave infrared types are selected based on the material and process requirements.

Fannon Products' infrared drying ovens serve automotive (paint curing, powder coat), printing and inkjet (water-based and solvent-based ink drying), plastics (forming, welding, curing), food processing (baking, dehydrating), electronics (reflow soldering), textiles (web drying, finishing), glass-ceramics (mirror drying, frit drying), and agricultural applications.

Fannon Products offers short-wave, medium-wave, and fast medium-wave infrared systems. Short-wave provides instant response and very high operating temperatures (up to 4000°F filament), ideal for fast process cycles. Medium-wave suits applications requiring deeper material penetration. Fast medium-wave balances speed and penetration for versatile industrial drying processes.

Yes. Fannon Products specializes in custom-designed and manufactured infrared drying ovens tailored to specific process requirements. Systems are engineered for precise wattage, voltage (115V to 600V), heated length, reflector type, and control configuration. Custom sizes and configurations are available for virtually any industrial drying, curing, or heating application.

Fannon's Goldenrod lamps with integral 24K gold reflectors achieve 96% radiant efficiency and save 23.5% in energy costs compared to standard infrared lamps. The directional reflector focuses virtually 100% of infrared energy onto the target material, reducing wasted heat, lowering belt and equipment temperatures, and enabling faster line speeds with reduced electrical consumption.
