The Sprint 3000 D (patents pending) gas textile conveyor dryer utilizes a stacked dual belt design, effectively doubling throughput while keeping a small footprint dimension. It is designed to address new inks and printing methods such as direct-to-garment (DTG) and hybrid printing (screen + digital printing) and their vastly differing cure rates, as well as traditional screen printing. The Sprint 3000 D allows operators to quickly adjust dryer settings to production changes and demands, meaning production planning no longer needs to be dictated by traditional multiple-press, single-dryer scenarios. Operators can simply change the independent belt speeds and run their jobs!
With an easy-to-navigate, icon-based touchscreen, operators have complete control of retention times, while the Job-Recall™ feature makes it easy to load saved settings based on particular inks and substrates—ensuring the proper cure every time. The Sprint 3000 D utilizes an enhanced non-slip Patriot Belt™ conveyor belt for the upper chamber with a special textured surface that holds garments and piece goods in place as they travel on the incline conveyor section to the upper burner chamber. The lower belt is offered in a single or optional Crossover™ Belt configuration, which adds even more production versatility.
The Sprint 3000 D has all the same great features as the original Sprint 3000, like Patriot Belts, SureTrak™ roller systems,
