Inline drying with a left-in, right-out material path
The WL-500ZY-KX is an inline drying oven for roll-fed materials up to 500 mm wide. Material enters from the left and exits on the right, making the feed direction an essential detail when planning its position between printing and downstream handling equipment.
The oven has four listed heating areas, a maximum temperature of 120°C and a material storage length of 60 m. These specifications provide a starting point for reviewing the drying process. The required operating temperature and line speed should be established using the actual substrate, ink or coating and target drying result.

- Enclosed oven cabinet with listed dimensions of 2850 × 1150 × 2050 mm.
Match the drying conditions to the substrate
Confirm the material’s heat limits and the drying requirements of the selected ink or coating. A trial should assess dryness, surface condition and dimensional stability at the proposed operating settings. The maximum temperature is an equipment limit, so the working temperature must be selected for the particular job.
Plan the connection to your production line
Share the upstream and downstream equipment layout, web height, material width and target speed so the connections can be reviewed. Confirm the web handling and control arrangement, ventilation requirements and clearance for operation and maintenance before ordering. The listed net weight is 1000 kg and the gross weight is 1100 kg.
Review our drying and web handling equipment or the screen printing machine catalogue when specifying the wider production process.
Compare this oven with the other listed roles in the roll-fed film drying oven selection guide. It separates pre-shrink treatment, inline drying and constant-tension handling, including the figures that need written confirmation.
