An infrared lamp paint baking oven was a bottleneck slowing all production because it was unable to produce sufficiently high temperatures. It was necessary to quickly construct a new oven with a suitable heat source. Because space was at a premium, the new oven had to be as short as possible. - A simple oven using Chromalox Electric Radiant Heaters was designed and constructed. The oven was designed for baking paint on sheet-metal parts requiring 400°F. for 7 minutes, and also had to be controllable in order to bake paint on plastic parts for the portable washing machines at 250°F. for 4 minutes.
