Argus International spray technology has been proven superior to other methods. Our primary goal was to produce a spray system and a drying oven which could be linked through compatible conveyor systems to form a time and labor-efficient unit and to eliminate the handling of wet panels. A single, traversing spray head also increases efficiency by reducing setup time, and decreasing both machine cost and maintenance. HVLP-Heated Gun Technology allows use of high-solids for spraying for increased efficiency and minimized environmental impact. Argus drying technology provides a major breakthrough in reduction of drying time. Typical convection systems require 35 to 45 minutes to dry coatings; the 9724 3 Zone Drying Oven reduces it to 3 or 4 minutes, and 9724 5 Zone Drying Oven reduces it to 6 or 7 minutes.
The Argus 9224 Fast Cure Oven was designed to meet the requirements of the fast turn prototype PC manufacturers where the need to reduce manufacturing times is critical. Unlike the larger 9724X5 Final Cure Oven, the 9224 occupies less space on the production floor being only 110 inches [2794mm] long. The 9224 also has a much smaller production rate then the 9724X5, typically operating at about 2.5 fpm [.23 mpm]. Argus International has been the leader in IR technology since the late 1960s, holding critical patents on IR fusing. No company has the experience of Argus in employing this technology to the PCB industry. Various Argus systems have utilized both short wave and long wave IR radiation, forced convection, and even UV radiation.
