Water
spray cooling for extrusions
If
you need to cool an extrusion or part quickly, a water spray
can sometimes be the perfect choice. This application uses three
water sprayers to spray a fine mist of water down onto hot extrusions
as they pass underneath. Water drains off through a wire mesh
belt, into a stainless steel pan below. To allow the extrusions
to be packed immediately, two air knives blow off residual water. |
