TPS, a global manufacturer of thermal-processing equipment, has designed a new, custom industrial oven that cures a thin coating onto glass vials used in the pharmaceutical industry to produce a specialized, low-friction surface. The four-module, 400 °C oven contains three heating chambers and one for cooling. The clean room conveyor oven processes 120 vials-per-minute as they advance in trays along a conveyor belt of more than 30 feet. The cooling zone allows the product to exit the oven at a temperature of 80 °C or less. To ensure uniform heat distribution and optimize efficiency, a high-volume, 1750-cfm, vertical-down, air-circulation system
