Very nice. I was actually just looking at flash dryers a little while ago so I can make a DIY conveyer dryer. Then I come across this video. Wasn't too big on with the mountable heaters I've seen in other videos. Thanks for the video.
When I first started screen printing and was using waterbased ink, I use to use a turbo broiler to cure my shirts! It actually worked very well since airflow is needed to properly cure waterbased ink.
the fly screen fiberglass did not work it shrank however ia found the fecfect replacement I installed a treadmill mat from a broken treadmill it works perfectly and handles the heat
the normal rotisserie motor is not strong enough for the use of a treadmill belt what is needed is a rotisserie motor for lamb spits this motor is slightly faster so you will need to increase the length of the conveyer or increase the lamp heat the normal motor takes 3 minutes to pass through and the lamb motor 2minutes
@@LineTableScreenPrinting Hi, I had used 3000 watts quartz heaters (1-1-1) (1000 Watts X 3) at my home for flash & final cure the plastisol ink but due to the heavy load issue at home, it burnt away my main electricity meter..LoL 😀... But now I had purchased a 4 rods heater (1-1-1-1) that is used for room heating in winters overhere of 2000 watts (500 Watts x 4).. I had tried it & it reaches at 180 degree celcius of temperature and cures the ink too...& what would you suggest, do I make a conveyor from this heater..thanks
@@nipunsharma8209 Yes, you can try a conveyor with quartz heater. We did that too at the beginning. But in our case, the quartz heater only lasted about a month and the temperature was not stable. The result could have been different depending on the the quality of quartz heater. But again in our case, we felt that it's more suitable to flash drying(heating quickly for short time) than all day long continuous use. So, in conclusion, you can make a conveyor with quartz heater, but keep searching for better heating element specially made for screen printing. Good luck! - p.s. Be careful of electric overload issue! Consult with an electrician for SAFETY!

I found that the Pet Screen fly screen fiberglass is 6 six times stronger than the normal fiberglass fly screen I will test it out and let you know could be the answer
