Optimum Process Temperatures: Drying and Curing Systems by e. Luterbach AG

Drying and curing systems play a vital role in powder coating systems and liquid paint systems. They cure the applied coating and ensure the durability, quality and performance of the finished surface. We design customized drying and curing systems for every coating process, always focusing on outstanding surface quality, energy efficiency and reliable operation. Thanks to our engineering expertise, we can determine the optimum solution for almost every application in industrial coating technology. From the earliest planning stage, we work closely with our customers and technology partners to develop the most economical solution. Our drying and curing systems can be supplied as standalone units or as part of a complete coating line.

What Is a Drying and Curing System?

Drying and curing systems remove moisture from workpieces or cure applied coatings as part of the coating process. In addition to the coating industry, these systems are also used in many other industrial applications. Within powder coating systems and liquid paint systems, drying and curing equipment ensures that coatings achieve the required mechanical, optical and functional properties.

Drying and curing systems may include:

Curing ovens
Air drying
UV curing
Chemical curing

The selection of the appropriate drying and curing technology depends on the coating material, the size and geometry of the workpieces, the required production capacity and the desired coating properties. Proper curing stabilizes the coating, improves durability and ensures a consistently high-quality finish.

e. Luterbach AG manufactures a wide range of drying and curing systems, including flash-off dryers, curing ovens and chamber ovens.

Flash-Off Dryers and Curing Ovens

Flash-off dryers and curing ovens are used as an integral part of modern cleaning and coating processes. The main difference between these systems lies in the heating method and operating temperature. All of our drying and curing systems comply with DIN EN 1539, and we also have extensive experience in implementing AMS 2750 requirements for the aerospace industry.

Available heating media include:
Gas
Oil
Electricity
Thermal oil

Chamber ovens

Our customized chamber ovens are specifically designed to meet your individual process requirements and available installation space. They feature advanced oven control systems that allow customized process programs for heating, drying, curing, hardening and tempering.

The design of our chamber ovens complies with the current DIN EN 1539 standard and incorporates our extensive experience in implementing the AMS 2750 requirements for the aerospace industry. High-performance insulation between the inner and outer shell minimizes heat loss, while optimized airflow ensures uniform temperature distribution and maximum energy efficiency. Depending on the application, various heating media are available to provide the optimum solution for your process.

Why are drying anc curing systems used?

Drying and curing systems offer numerous advantages:

Improved coating quality: Reliable curing ensures a uniform, durable coating with consistently high surface quality.
Increased productivity: Efficient drying and curing processes reduce cycle times and increase production capacity.
Reduced waste: Stable process conditions minimize coating defects, reduce rework and lower production costs.
Lower operating costs: Modern drying and curing systems are designed for maximum energy efficiency.
Consistent process reliability: Controlled curing conditions ensure repeatable coating quality and reliable production processes.

Superior Insulation Technology

Our drying and curing systems are equipped with a unique insulated panel design with a U-value of 0.24 W/m²K across the entire panel surface. Unlike conventional constructions, no thermal spacers are required between the inner and outer panels, significantly reducing heat losses. As a result, our 150 mm insulated panels provide exceptionally high thermal efficiency and contribute to lower energy consumption.

Customized drying and curing solutions

From engineering and manufacturing to installation and commissioning, e. Luterbach AG provides complete drying and curing solutions from a single source. Our many years of experience enable us to develop systems with optimized airflow, efficient heat transfer and easy maintenance. Every solution is individually tailored to the customer’s production process and operational requirements.
