Benefits of BIM fine atomization for ceramics drying process
- No cracks
- Better quality
- Less scrap
- Non-wetting
The problems the customer was facing
Some of the customers of CeramDry were experiencing some issues with cracks in their products due to dryness. The cracks always occurred when the humidity in the dryer could not be kept at the set value and the products were dried too quickly.
For a time, they addressed the moisture issue by installing a hydraulic spraying system. However, due to the large droplet size being sprayed, the product surface would worsen and result in poor quality.
System used for this application
BIM Ultra-Fine Atomization
Our AKIMist®“E” spreads a Dry Fog that humidifies indoor environments without wetting. It represented the perfect solution for Annie, who needs a humid environment
The solution
After consulting with Ikeuchi Europe, CeramDry started to test our BIM pneumatic spray nozzles with one of their clients. The test results were very positive as it had solved both the issue with humidity as well as with product wetting and quality reduction. According to Clemens Jans from CeramDry, they were happy with the high quality, long durability, super fine droplets and the non-dripping effect. After a succesful testing period at the customer site, CeramDry decided to expand this solution to other customers. These customers included Villeroy & Boch and Geberit, who both produce sanitary ware, as well as IVRA.s.r.l, who is involved with refractory products.
"We are happy with the high quality, long durability, super fine droplets and non-dripping"
Clemens Jans, Managing Director at CeramDryThe result
According to CeramDry, their customers are very satisfied with the BIM moisturization solution as their product quality has improved significantly. Both sanitary ware manufacturers experienced that the scrap that was previously caused by the spray nozzles, dropped to zero after installing the new system. At IVRA.s.r.l, they had always had trouble to achieve a lower crack rate in their products. However, after installing the new BIM spray nozzles, the crack rate was completely eliminated.
“Our customers are happy with the nozzles as their product quality improved significant”.
