Vastex LittleRed X3D Conveyor Dryer with Advanced Digital Control
Introducing the versatile Vastex LittleRed® X3D Infrared Dryer, a cutting-edge solution that revolutionizes the curing process for direct-to-garment (DTG) printed textiles, plastisol, water-based, and discharge-printed garments, and DTF adhesive-coated images. Say goodbye to conventional dryer limitations, as the Little Red X3D sets new standards for efficiency and performance, allowing you to achieve higher rates of curing than ever before.
Designed with a modular concept, this dryer offers expandability, enabling seamless addition of chambers and conveyor length to meet your evolving production needs. Available in three belt widths: 30 in. (76 cm), 54 in. (137 cm), and 78 in. (198 cm), the LittleRed X3D boasts a high-powered pre-heating zone that propels ink temperatures to an impressive 300°F (149°C) within the initial inches of conveyor travel. This ensures optimal curing distance and dwell time for all types of ink and adhesives, translating into faster conveyor belt speeds and increased dryer output.
The Little Red X3D-30 comes equipped with a 30 in. (76.2 cm) wide conveyor belt and three 24 in. (61 cm) wide infrared heaters, boasting a total wattage of 8900W @ 240V. It can handle the curing of 360+ plastisol-printed garments per hour, 185+ water-based or discharge-printed garments per hour, and up to 51+ garments per hour with inkjet printed digital white ink at 3 minutes dwell time*.
For enhanced productivity, the 54 in. (137 cm) wide LittleRed X3D-54 can cure an impressive 720+ plastisol-printed garments per hour, 370+ water-based or discharge-printed garments per hour, and 103+ garments per hour with inkjet printed digital white ink or DTG pretreatment at 3 minutes dwell time*.
For the pinnacle of efficiency, the 78 in. (198 cm) wide LittleRed X3D-78 accommodates up to three rows of garments and delivers astounding results, curing 1080+ plastisol-printed garments per hour, 555+ water-based or discharge-printed garments per hour, and 155+ garments per hour with inkjet printed digital white ink or DTG pretreatment at 3 minutes dwell time*.
All X3D models boast a 41 in. (104 cm) long heating chamber and come standard with a powerful, targeted exhaust system. This exhaust system rapidly eliminates moisture and air contaminants from the heating chamber, while also keeping the outer cabinet cool and maintaining optimal control.
For even higher production capacity, the LR-X3D-30-2 and LR-X3D-54-2 models come equipped with a second X3 chamber, allowing for extended curing times necessary for Kornit printers and other high-volume production demands.
Experience unparalleled efficiency and reliability with the LittleRed X3D Infrared Dryer, a game-changer in the world of garment curing. Take your production capabilities to new heights and achieve consistent, flawless results with this advanced drying solution.
