BBC Aeolus Forced Air Conveyor Dryer – Industry-Leading Curing Technology

The Aeolus is the next generation of Forced Air Conveyor Dryer. Using BBC’s proprietary heating elements there is nothing that BBC Aeolus dyer can’t cure. From plastisol to pretreat, and everything in between, the Aeolus out shines the competition. The Aeolus’s revolutionary design uses banks of angled heating panels running along the edge of the PTFE coated belt to all but eliminate edge loss. Its unique design, partnered with BBC’s proprietary watt density algorithm, provides the Aeolus with the most even edge-to-edge cure in its class.

Production Rates:
Plastisol: 1440/hr (30 seconds)
Water-Based: 960/hr (45 seconds)
Direct-to-Garment: 330/hr (130 seconds)

Designed for maximum efficiency and versatility, the Aeolus is built to handle high-volume production while maintaining superior temperature control and edge-to-edge consistency. Its proprietary heating technology, precision belt tracking, and dual heating zones make it the ultimate solution for screen printers looking to optimize their curing process.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Edgemax™ Technology – BBC’s exclusive angled heating elements run the full length of the chamber, ensuring true edge-to-edge curing. This prevents undercured areas, delivering consistent heat across the entire print.
• TruTrak™ Belt Tracking System – Eliminates belt misalignment issues, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted operation while reducing downtime and maximizing productivity.
• Multi-Ink Compatibility – Seamlessly cures Plastisol, Water-Based, and DTG inks, offering flexibility for diverse printing needs.
• Dual Heating Zones – Two independent heating zones allow for precise temperature control, ensuring optimal curing efficiency and print durability.
• Advanced Control Panel – Features intuitive, user-friendly controls for adjusting temperature, conveyor speed, and curing settings with ease.
