Quartz 4kw
Quartz 4kW suits print rooms that need a smaller quartz flash unit for sampling, repeat jobs, or a single station on a garment line. The compact format helps where bench space and available load are limited, while still giving the quick surface heat associated with quartz elements.
Quartz heat for compact stations
Quartz 4kW is a compact flash dryer option for print shops that need quartz heat without stepping up to a larger bank. It suits smaller garment lines and setup areas where electrical load and working space both matter.
On smaller South African print lines, a 4kW quartz head is often used where a full bank would take up too much room or draw more power than the board allows. It can fit setup bays, strike-off areas, and shorter garment runs where operators need controlled flash between colours without changing the whole line layout.
Before the unit is booked against a job, match it to the line record and the cure log entry for that print setup. A clear photo of pallet spacing, platen size, and the print area helps prevent the wrong head position or spare component being sent out.
Checks before allocation
Say you are asking about the Quartz 4kW unit, then include the current application and any known electrical limits on site. If the request involves a replacement part, note the existing quartz bank arrangement and any visible damage to guards, wiring, or ceramic holders.
Tie the Quartz 4kw unit to the relevant line record and cure log entry before extending the scope. Please verify all line details before any unit or spare component is allocated for dispatch.

Site conditions that affect flash
Highveld dust can build up on reflectors and around moving parts, so cleaning intervals matter if the output starts drifting across the print area. In Durban and other coastal locations, moisture in the air can influence storage conditions and the frequency of visual checks on terminals, fittings, and exposed metal parts.
Load-shedding and generator changeovers should be considered before adding even a compact flash dryer to an existing screen-print line. Where multiple heaters, compressors, and curing equipment share one supply, the 4kW draw must be checked against the site plan before dispatch is approved.

Information to send with enquiry
Include the garment type or packaging stock, the print size, and where the Quartz 4kw will sit in the production flow. Mention whether the unit is for a new station, a swap-out, or a spare kept for breakdown cover.
Add a photo that shows the present print setup from operator side and note any issue with curing consistency, space, or available power. These details make it easier to link the request to the correct line record before any unit or spare component is allocated for dispatch.
