Ceramic tiles are used for interior and exterior adorn and restoration. Because the ceramic tile industry is a mature market and dependent on the building industry, growth will be slow. The working procedures involve batching, mixing & grinding, spray drying, forming, drying, glazing, firing
MAX Industrial Microwave mainly rollout the conveyor belt microwave to dry a abundance type of ceramic tiles. We know that ceramic tile normally must be dried(at high relative humidity) after forming, especially if a wet method is used, drying process can take several days, dehydrating moisture at a slow rate to avoid shrinkage cracks. For thicker tile, microwave can dry the products better as microwave directly vibrates the water molecular. Comparing to gas, oil, infrared, microwave heating is without heat conduction to reduce pre-heat energy consumption. As we know that water absorbs electromagnetic radiation. It is heated evenly in each depth of the product. Pressure grows with temperature; the pressure displaces water molecules to the surface, where the pressure is lower. Microwave power can be controlled precisely and appropriately with regard to the kind of raw material, the size, shape and thickness of walls and the current water content. Therefore rapid evaporation is sufficiently gentle, even at risky places and stages. The stress between the surface and the inside is none; no deformations occur and energy consumption is optimal at each moment.
Utilization of conveyor belt furnace microwaves accelerates the drying process, effectively minimizing processing time and relative costs. Reduction in drying time translates directly into a lower in-process inventory of heating material needed to satisfy production demands. Less factory space is a consequence of smaller in-process inventory as well as increase manufacturing capacity and reduce labor requirements. Moreover, microwave drying process is a clean technology that would be suitable to operate in many types of applications.
