New production line with tunnel dryer.

New production line with tunnel dryer.
US Tile: Corona (USA)

The 2 production lines, including the dryer, were to be replaced. The guidelines for the project were:

  • maintain the layout of the two stretching machines, the cutter and the tile press
  • install new handling equipment
  • install a new dryer
  • feed dry tiles into the existing four-storey roller kiln.

All these conditions were met by loading the stretched and pressed tiles onto racks and conveying them to a tunnel dryer. The two production lines operate alternately, using the same dryer car loading system.
