Wood Drying oven

The wood drying oven uses celerity convection air at temperatures that cut through the boards, drying them rapidly. The design of the dryer is a fully closed unit and includes insulation, with a metal material inside and outside. Now the heated air is traveled through closed dryer, pressurized supply duct located above the boards and below if necessary.  Aside from the  air recirculation system and heating, kiln dryer have this an exhaust blower that is responsible for removing the moisture left in the woods while the process of burning is obviously done by the burner.

This operation is performed to successfully dry the moisturized and wet green timber and make them more workable and will help workers to avoid difficulty in their work afterwards such as warping and twisting of lumbers body, and it also prevent issues in the installed dried wood and adhesive failures in finished products. But with the help of Shuowei, problem stated would be avoided and you can save a lot of money.

Wood Drying Oven Features

High frequency kiln dryer does not heat the wood directly since it may damage the wood but it only makes moisture inside the wood heating themselves and evaporates itself. This continuous drying allows the wood to dry from surface to core uniformly. Meanwhile, wood is drying under a vacuum wet and low temperature condition. It is nice to the wood and will ensure that the wood is no cracks and with nature color. Not the same as conventional steam kilns or common vacuum kilns who use hot air or heated plates to dry the wood from surface to core.  

why do you need drying oven for your woods?

When the wood dries, problem such as cracking, twisting, warping and shrinking physically in it’s dimensions is possible, making the dried wood aren’t ideal for buildings, flooring or any woodworking. If it has been trimmed to a functional shape, like a square, it may reshape when time passes by. Shuowei helps the wood to be heated evenly and achieving a small difference in moisture content inside and outside the wood. Thus, effectively addresses the issue of wood cracking and bending.

How wood drying oven works?

The combination of high frequency and vacuum generates voltage to generate a magnetic field, causing the water molecules in the wood to move at high speeds, appear to collide, and then generate heat. This method does heat the wood directly and allows the water in the wood to heat itself, allowing the wood to be heated evenly and achieving balance in moisture content inside and outside the wood. This effectively addresses the issue of wood cracking and bending.

How Does A Wood Drying Kiln Work

Heating Coil

The finned tubes of the heating coil are made of stainless steel and aluminum alloy. This part is light weight, kind of steam-resistant, anti-corrosion and anti-rust and high thermal efficient. This heating coil is appropriate design, fast and easy installations.

Electric Valve

This component is small in volume, has efficient heat-control, top-notch and reliable performance. This electric valve can precisely control the temperature increasement and decrement, and the quantity of steam, which can be save.

Moisture Content, Temperature Anometer

In every kiln, there different temperature checker which can directly show the changes of temperature and moisture content inside the kiln. That anometer are made of stainless steel and joints are imported, that ensure accurate and precise measurement. The data transmission adopts special high temperature-resistant cables, which ensure the signals can be transported without intrusion.

Vent Motor

The vent motor can be controlled from 0 degree to 90 degrees according to the temperature in the kiln. This operation can be controlled  outside of the kiln which is safest. The vent motor is made by superior performance and high reliability. 

drying chamber

This is where the wood drying and moisture evaporations happens. Humidity and temperature is being controlled so that the moisture content of wood can be reduced to a target point without having any drying defects. It also  produces temperatures sufficient to complete some process, such as hardening, drying, or chemical changes.
