Steam drying

Steam drying in surface technology is a highly effective method for quickly and efficiently removing moisture from various material surfaces. This process is widely used in industries such as mechanical engineering, the automotive industry and metal processing.

The use of steam in surface technology offers the advantage of targeted and controlled drying. Heated steam is directed onto the surface to be dried. The steam penetrates the pores and structures of the material, binds the moisture and enables rapid evaporation. This method allows damp surfaces to be dried effectively without causing excessive heat stress.

A key aspect of steam drying in surface technology is its adaptability to different materials. Whether it is metal, plastics or coatings, the method can be precisely adapted to the specific requirements. This enables gentle drying without impairing the structure or quality of the surface.

The targeted use of steam drying in surface technology not only enables the removal of moisture, but also contributes to the improvement of coatings and paintwork. Efficient drying achieves optimum adhesion properties, resulting in a high-quality surface finish.

Overall, steam drying in surface technology is a proven method for drying damp surfaces quickly and precisely, ensuring the durability and quality of the treated materials.
