Vastex Intl., Allentown, Pa., has introduced a new Dri-Cab forced-air screen drying cabinet that dries coated screens five times faster than passively ventilated drying cabinets, according to the company.
The compact unit can hold up to 10 screens measuring 23” x 31”, and features a positive-pressure ventilation system with air filter to prevent dust contamination. The pressurized cabin dries most coated screens in less than one hour.
“The VDC-2331 Dri-Cab is the latest addition to our line of high-quality, affordable, space-saving equipment specially engineered for smaller shops and entry-level screen printers,” says Mark Vasilantone, president of Vastex. “With the VDC-2331 Dri-Cab, you can coat and expose your screens the same day, instead of waiting overnight for air drying.”
To ensure total darkness, the unit is constructed with large overlapping seams, and is equipped with a latching, rubber-sealed door and light-tight bottom exhaust port. Screens sit horizontally on removable shelves that are angled to prevent screen-mesh fabric from touching the shelf surface.
