- All bodies absorb or reflect a specific wavelength of infrared radiations.
- Infrared radiations heat the material directly and evenly.
- The vacuum ensures maximum efficiency of infrared radiations.
- The vacuum is the most effective “means” for extracting liquids.
- Vacuum is the best thermal insulation in nature.
- The vacuum lowers the boiling point of the water.
- The vacuum prevents the action of oxidation.
- All bodies in the void fall with the same speed.
MOBY – Infrared Vacuum System
Infrared + Vacuum System Moby
The MOBY is a patented heat treatment system for PET based on the combined action of infrared radiations, vacuum and mixing. The material inside the reactor is recirculated through a ducted screw and exposed to the action of infrared radiations in a vacuum environment. The temperature is controlled directly on the material and determines the various phases of the treatment: crystallization, dehumidification, Super-Clean (decontamination for food contact applications) and Solid State Polycondensation (rise-up of intrinsic viscosity).
