Description
About the Walco 4224SB
The Walco 4224SB is an SB Series print-and-dry split-base transport with a 42-inch print section and a 24-inch dry section, running at up to 400 feet per minute. A dryer interlock is standard, and high-temperature belts are fitted so the deck can run beneath IR or UV drying lamps.
The split-base layout lets a Walco inkjet printing system mount over the print section while the dry section carries pieces beneath a dryer, keeping ink set and pieces flat in one continuous inline pass. It is the physical transport base onto which Walco builds a complete inline print-and-dry production line.
