Lab Lines

ASI has provided lab line dryers and ovens for many different applications. By its very nature, the R&D environment requires a lab dryer to deliver precise performance over a wide range of operating parameters. This may include high temperature applications (1000°F), thru-air drying, inert environments or the ability to process either a web or hand sheets. Each lab or pilot line dryer is uniquely designed to meet the specific requirements of the associated product and process. Some examples include:




This 14” web lab dryer is capable of utilizing several different styles of air bars and includes a removable conveyor belt system for running hand sheets. With electric heat and an internal air supply fan, the footprint is small.


So as to simulate the drying characteristics of a same-plant commercial dryer, this 16” web lab dryer uses air flotation bars of the same size and spacing.


A two-zone dryer that drives hot air through the product (web or hand sheets) as it is carried through the dryer on a wire-mesh conveyor belt. The hot air modules (plenums) are on top of the dryer. Conveyor steering and tension controls are underneath the dryer.
