for Drums
Koenig & Bauer drum dryers are available in multiple configurations, tailored to individual customer and operational requirements.
Thermal Dryer for Drums and Lids
- Modular oven configurations engineered for multi-row, double-tunnel, and wicket lines
- Ovens with integrated TNV air purification with direct process heat recovery for solvent based coatings
- Directly heated ovens with temperature control for water-based coating or lines with external air purification
- Double-walled AirFlow Clean construction for uniform heat and low contamination
- Cooling zone with temperature-controlled fan speed
- Quick-removable baffle plates for efficient internal cleaning and maintenance
Koenig & Bauer MetalPrint drum dryers are available in various versions, each tailored to our customers' operational requirements.
All drum dryers are built upon established Koenig & Bauer MetalPrint drying technology, available in multiple-row, double-tunnel, or wicket oven configurations.
- Multi-Row Ovens: Tailored for spray-coated or lined drums, intermediate drums, or pails in 1- to 4-row designs
- Double-Tunnel Ovens: Designed for simultaneous curing of drums lined on the inside and coated on the outside
- Wicket Ovens: Adapted for drum ends, featuring integrated air purification for solvent-based applications
- Inline Air Purification System: Integrated TNV system that routes solvent-laden air into the combustion chamber to reduce gas consumption in the inline drying process compared to installations operating without or with external air purification
Customised heating
Depending on coating type and capacity, ovens feature single or several heating units engineered for tight temperature tolerances. Specialised nozzles inject hot air into the drying tunnel, continuous air movement within the chamber. This airflow improves thermal heat transfer to the drum.
The double-walled AirFlow Clean design guides air distribution across the heat up section. This construction promotes uniform temperatures on tunnel walls and baffle plates, providing balanced heat distribution while reducing contamination risks within the oven compared to single-walled designs. For maintenance, the plates are removable for inspection and cleaning.
Demand-oriented cooling
Koenig & Bauer MetalPrint provides single- and multi-stage cooling zones with controlled air circulation. Cooling sequences and operational parameters are configured according to ambient site conditions to support product stability during handling and filling processes.
