Wood Glue Drying
The wood industry has many applications which use RF tubes. RF can be used to remove the moisture from lumber and plywood, embossing, forming, or laminating to fiberboard or for OSB and chipboard curing. The most popular application for the wood industry is to cure the glue used when combining multiple pieces of wood together to accelerate the drying time and increase production.Food Drying
Using RF in the food industry has many advantages and can be used for various processessuch as:
- Post Bake Moisture Removal
- Pasteurization / Sterilization
- Preheating or Precooking
