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. |
