A method of manufacturing ceramic tape includes a step of directing a tape of partially-sintered ceramic into a furnace. The tape is partially-sintered such that grains of the ceramic are fused to one another yet the tape still includes at least 10% porosity by volume, where the porosity refers to volume of the tape unoccupied by the ceramic. The method further includes steps of conveying the tape through the furnace and further sintering the tape as the tape is conveyed through the furnace. The porosity of the tape decreases during the further sintering step.

An ultrasonic drying method used in yarn dyeing and drying machine (200) for drying the washed and dyed wet yarns (300) in the process of dyeing one or more yarns at a desired length in one or more colors in the manufacture of products such as carpet, hand-knit, knitwear in the textile sector, and to an ultrasonic drying system (100) for performing this method, wherein the system contains an Ultrasonic booster (101) which creates sound waves to be transmitted over the wet yarn (300) bundle the excess water of which has been removed by the vacuum unit (209) to remove the water therein before the drying tunnel (210); a horn (103) which is positioned between the ultrasonic booster (101) and the wet yarn (300) to transfer the sound waves generated by the Ultrasonic booster (101) to the wet yarn (300) bundle.

The present invention provides a conveyor belt tracking system for a dryer having a web of a mesh material having a protrusion extending along the length proximal one lateral edge and above a flat surface and a first generally cylindrical roller having a three-tiered slot for receiving the protrusion and two flanking shallow tracks for receiving base flanges.

A web drying apparatus, comprises: a blow-drying part which has two blower units arranged on both sides of web which is transferred in a transfer direction, and injects gas onto the web passing through a dry path between the two blower units; a housing which has a sidewall provided with an opening facing the dry path from the transfer direction, through which the web passes in the transfer direction through the opening, and houses the blow-drying part; an exhaust part which is disposed between the sidewall and the blow-drying part in the housing and exhausts gas from the inside of the housing to the outside of the housing; and a rectifying member which is disposed between the blow-drying part and the exhaust part in the housing and faces the web being transferred in the transfer direction.

A heat pump dryer includes a main casing having an air inlet channel and an air outlet channel, a compressor, a first heat exchanger positioned in the air inlet channel, a second heat exchanger positioned in the air outlet channel, a fan provided in the air inlet channel, and an energy efficient heat exchanger. The energy efficient heat exchanger has a first portion partially exposed to the air inlet channel, and a second portion partially exposed to the air outlet channel. Air is arranged to enter the air inlet channel to sequentially perform heat exchange with the first portion of the energy efficient heat exchanger and the first heat exchanger. Air passing through the air inlet channel is arranged to enter the air outlet channel to sequentially perform heat exchange with the second portion of the energy efficient heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger.
