Abstract (en)

The present invention refers to a positioning system of a drying device (19) in a varnish and/or other material drying plant that comprises detection means (22) of at least one outline of the object to be dried and electronic means (24) for controlling the drying operations. The system is characterised in that said electronic control means (24) comprise graphical representation means (26) available to an operator and instructions adapted to generate on the graphical representation means (26) at least a virtual outline (P) corresponding to the profile of the object to be dried detected by said detection means (22). The instructions establish a correspondence between the graphical representation of the virtual outline (P) and the real position of the object to be dried. Said instructions further establish a correlation between the positioning controls of the drying device (19) on the object to be dried and the virtual outline (P).
