Description
1
Coil Tray
—Contains the induction coil, glass coil tube, auxiliary air heater, heater blower, and
exhaust blower. The can ends travel through the glass tube and are heated by the induction
coil. Cabinet air is heated and forced through the tube to carry off the moisture vaporizing out
of the sealing compound. The exhaust blower draws the heated air and moisture out of the
tube. The coil tray attaches to the customer infeed and outfeed system.
2
Motion Sensor
—A laser sensor that monitors the movement of can ends at the entrance to
the dryer. The controller will only apply power to the induction coil when the motion sensor
detects can ends moving through the dryer.
3
Operator Control Console
—Contains the operator interface terminal (touch screen) which
contains all operator control functions including warnings and faults. The console includes an
Emergency Stop button and system on/off push buttons.
4
Control Enclosure
—Contains the system controller (PLC), cooling air filters and fan, and
power inverter devices and circuit boards.
5
Temperature Sensor
—Senses the can end temperature as the ends exit the coil tray. The
temperature controller then regulates the power applied to the induction coil to produce the
desired can end exit temperature. The sensor is a low-mass type K thermocouple.
