T.I.R.S.A has developed a new generation
of short wave infrared dryers, "Infra
Quick". All products are made with the best
materials and manufactured under the strictest quality
control. The "Infra Quick"
range of products is ideal for quick repairs and for
increasing the production capacity of any kind of body
shop.
Analog and digital versions are available.
The products incorporate a proximity Detection System
(PDS), which together with a simple digital control

| About Infra Red |
 |
Infrared systems emit different
types of waves: long, medium and short. The main
difference between the three types lays in the
penetration depth of the paint cover. Short wave
emissions are the ones that most penetrates through
the paint surface. "Infra
Quick'' uses this type of wave, since it
reduces the drying time and the power consumption.

| Profitability |
|
Most of the repairs realised in
body shops are due to small and medium-size damages,
mainly on front, back and lateral panels. Traditionally
the spray booth is used to dry those small surfaces
of the body, generating "bottle neck"
problems during a great work flow situation.
Unlike the spray booths, infrared
dryers prove to be more efficient on small body
surface since they allow direct heat application
on the treated piece.
