wo new DTF capable conveyor dryers from Vastex protect printers from ethylene glycol, a toxic
synthetic fluid emitted by DTF adhesives as a vapour during the curing process. The new dryers draw filtered makeup air through the top-centre of the heating chamber, and through its double-wall serving to cool the outer skin and chamber edges for operator safety.

replaces the exhausted air being drawn out, while preventing an inrush of air from the infeed and exit of the dryer. A washable mist separator removes glycol from the contaminated vapour, collecting its condensate in a removable receptacle. Air is drawn through the dryer by an exhaust fan to minimise exposure to heat and vapour contamination. A collar at the fan’s outlet allows connection of the user’s exhaust ductwork to the shop’s exterior.
