A system for drying an electrode includes: an oven which applies hot air and radiant heat to an electrode sheet; and a controller which receives information on drying standby time, and controls an amount of heat supplied into the oven. Herein, the controller controls to supply a reduced amount of heat to the oven during an initial drying time right after the supply of the electrode sheet after the drying standby time.

An oven may facilitate heating, curing, and/or drying processes for manufactured items, such as shoe parts, using multiple groups of infrared sources. Efficiencies of the oven are achieved through a deliberate airflow characteristic, which is accomplished with a configuration of apertures extending through a circulation plate. A higher concentration of apertures is formed in the circulation plate near a center zone relative to zones near an entrance and exit to the oven. Further, the shape of the apertures in the circulation plate aid in improved airflow within the oven.

A drying device for drying coated, elongated work pieces in a continuous process including a transport device for transporting the work piece. For drying an edge or surface of the work piece, heat sources are arranged in a drying chamber. In a drying zone, drying vapor is generated during drying. The vapor is removed by an airflow. The airflow is supplied via a supply channel and fans. A controller is provided to control the fans.

Known apparatuses for irradiating a substrate include a housing and, within the housing, a receptacle for the substrate having a circular irradiation surface and a first emitter for generating optical radiation having a first emitter tube arranged in a plane of curvature extending parallel to the irradiation surface and having an emitter tube end, whereby the receptacle and the first emitter can be moved with respect to each other. In these apparatuses, the irradiation surface includes first and second semi-circular surface portions. An improvement of the known apparatuses, which enables the substrate to have a rotationally symmetrical, homogeneous temperature distribution while keeping the complexity of design and control technology minimal, provides a first emitter tube having a curved illumination length section, extending with a mirror symmetrical-oval basic shape in the plane of curvature, wherein the first illumination length section is associated essentially with one of the semicircular surface portions.
