SARP SOLUTIONS
SARP Tunnel
The precision of linear flow for progressive, controlled, and fully accessible heat treatments.
The SARP tunnel is the premier solution for processes that require progressive heat treatment, limited production capacities, and total operational accessibility. Thanks to its linear architecture, it enables constant monitoring and meticulous management of thermal variables along the entire path of the belt.
Technical value: process segmentation
Each section works as an autonomous climate chamber, regulating the most critical variables along the path of the belt.
The strength of the tunnel system lies in its modularity. Each section of the machine acts as an autonomous climate chamber, allowing independent parameters for temperature, humidity, and air speed to be set.
This segmentation makes it possible to create a perfect thermal curve, guiding the product through successive stages (e.g. heating, holding, cooling) without thermal shock and with pinpoint precision.
Linear development to guide the product progressively.
Multi-zone
Linear development to guide the product progressively.
Batch
Flexible load management even for limited production capacities.
Inspection
Total accessibility for cleaning, inspection, and routine maintenance.
Technological advantages
Four reasons to choose the Tunnel
Operational flexibility
Adaptable to reduced production capacities compared to continuous operation, with the possibility of load management also in batch mode.
Microclimate control
Multi-zone management for complex heat treatments that require parameter variations during linear progression.
Accessibility and Maintenance
The open design and horizontal development facilitate inspection, cleaning, and routine maintenance operations, reducing downtime.
Heat Exchange Versatility
Possibility to combine different technologies in the same system (forced air, water shower, spray systems) to optimize thermal performance.
DESIGN CHOICE
TUNNEL OR SPIRAL?
The choice depends on your layout
The choice depends on the production layout, the required capacity, and how the process needs to develop within the space.
There is no standard configuration, there is the perfect solution for your goal. Together we analyze the type of product, the available space, and your energy targets to define the most suitable technology.
Find out how we integrate these technologies into our Complete Lines
TUNNEL
When linear precision is needed
More suitable when the process requires progressive stages, multi-zone management, operational accessibility, and delicate product handling.
SPIRAL
When vertical capacity is needed
Ideal when the priority is to maximize hourly capacity by exploiting the plant’s volume and reducing floor space requirements.
OUR TUNNELS
