Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0744222A1] After depositing a protective or decorative coating on a metallic tape (1), the tape is continuously passed through an induction furnace tunnel (2) having an external casing (4) The tunnel furnace has two sections each provided with cooled induction coils (5). The induction heating bakes the previously deposited coating on the tape and evaporates the solvents contained in the coating material. The solvents are continuously extracted from the furnace. Gas, generally air, is injected into the tunnel at a temperature greater than the dew point of the solvents. Thermal insulation (3) in each section of the sealed tunnel maintains the hot internal walls above the dew point.
