Stair South General Mgr, Kevin O’Brien is accompanied by Sam Torrey, Rep for Atlanta based integrator, Southern Fluid Systems as he demonstrates a recipe used for curing a new custom rail project. Known for being a high-end stair, rail and custom metal fabricator for both residential & commercial clients- reworks or downtime just aren’t an option. VULCAN IR accepted the task of creating a compact infrared powder curing powerhouse. Per O’Brien, the gas catalytic infrared oven has proven a positive investment toward Stair South achieving their supply and demand goals. In a short time, the team has more than doubled their line capacity, decreased handling times & continue to cure parts that meet their stringent levels of quality- all while maintaining surprising low operational costs.
Equipped with its unique, vertical dual zone infrared heater panels, the VULCAN 12D Curing System offers superior control & increased power to part ratios.
Tangible Benefits Include:
- Advanced curing control
- Independent upper & lower heat zone controls
- x2 more power per module within same oven footprint
