The D-EC cycling dryers incorporate a thermal mass that stores cold energy, providing enhanced operating efficiency over competitive non-cycling products in this range. The thermal mass cools the air flowing through the dryer, allow- ing the refrigeration system to turn off during periods of low demand without degrading air quality. The new line offers many features that are not typically available on small capacity models. The patented, multilayer heat exchanger combines the chiller, evaporator and pre-cooler/reheater to optimize the efficiency of the dryer and compressed air sys- tem. In addition, the precooler/reheater exchanger warms the air exiting the dryer, thereby eliminating the potential for ambient moisture to condense on the outer surface of the downstream piping.

High-Performance, High-Speed Chuck
EBP 5672 collet chuck combines the accuracy of shrink-fit and hydraulic chucks with the flexibility of a collet chuck to help reduce runout, increase torque capabilities and increaseSeco EPB 5672 productivity in high-performance, high-speed applications. The combination of a strong, trapezoidal thread nut and high-precision grind of the collet nut and body ensure the tool’s even holding pressure and allows the collet to seat firmly and securely within its pocket. The design significantly increases rigid- ity. In tool lengths three times OD, the EPB 5672 reduces runout to a max of only 3 µm. Seco Tools
