Continuity from coating to drying

The tunnel is the section where colours, pigments and products applied in the spray booth or roller coater are dried on the leather. Conveying, air filtration and heating all contribute to the result. Danese supplies the main consumables and replacement parts for this stage.

Leather conveying: Perlon monofilament and meshes

Leather can be carried by Perlon monofilament or fibreglass meshes, according to the line design. A dedicated tunnel mesh separates this section from the product application area, where the conveying system may become dirty. We supply both options, sized for the machine.

Monofilament is supplied on reels for leather conveying systems. Replacement selection requires comparison of diameter, path and machine requirements.

Fibreglass conveyor meshes

We supply square-mesh fibreglass conveyors for tunnels. Mesh size, width, loop length and joint must be checked against the sample and existing configuration.

Transfer brushes between booth and tunnel

We can also supply brushes used at the transfer between a rotary spray booth or roller coater and the drying tunnel. Dimensions, mounting and working position help identify the right solution for the line.

White-blue filter media and catalytic panels

The white-blue filter medium captures particles in the air. Its blue resin treatment promotes dust capture and helps limit passage into the drying area. We supply rolls 1 m or 2 m wide. Selection must be checked for the air circuit and tunnel operating conditions.

Replacement catalytic panels are available for gas tunnels designed to use them. Selection requires comparison with the type, dimensions and specifications of the installed panel. Tunnels may also use steam heating; heating parts depend on the machine technology.

Parts for the finishing line

The drying tunnel works together with the product application stage. Find related parts on the dedicated spray booth and roller coater pages.
