Belned Cure Their Problems With A Custom Schubox

BelNed bv was founded in 1978 and produces glass products in the window industry, glaziers, painters and contractors throughout the Netherlands.

BelNed produces various items in house: glazing bars , air vents , aluminum sashes and pane frames. They provide sealants and caulking guns , all kinds of glazing tape , glass cutters and some cleaning products for the glass sectors.

Along with their long-standing Dutch finishing partner, LTI Bv, Schuberts have just installed a custom built Schubox to dry and cure a long-standing bottleneck at Belned – drying waterbased coatings!

Once vacuum coated, the products are loaded onto large drying trolleys and pushed into the Schubox for rapid drying.

The Schubox is 6800mm wide x 2750mm high x 8000mm long and fitted with 5 x gas catalytic infrared emitters.  The we fit infrared panels into Schubox is key to the quick drying at low temperatures. For this installation, the Schubox is running at just 35-38c and cures the waterbased coatings in 20-30 minutes.

Air is provided by means of inverter driven floor fans, that can be angled and accurately controlled to get the quickest drying times.
