Anatol Conveyor Dryers — Equipment Catalog
Anatol's conveyor dryers are equipment for curing ink on textiles after screen printing: the garment moves on a belt through a heating chamber, where the ink sets at the required temperature over a controlled time. This equipment completes the printing process and ensures the image holds up to washing and wear.
Anatol equipment is a fit for print shops and manufacturers specializing in t-shirt printing, textiles, and promotional products — from small studios that need a compact dryer to large operations with high daily curing volumes.
Anatol's key brand advantages in the dryer segment include a choice between gas and electric heating to match your shop's setup, touchscreen control panels that save job profiles, the ability to program automatic startup and cool-down, and energy-efficient construction that keeps heat inside the chamber rather than in the workspace.
Types of Anatol Conveyor Dryers
Anatol's conveyor dryer lineup spans different heating types and sizes — from compact electric units to powerful gas systems for high-volume production.
Available Anatol conveyor dryer lines:
- Vulcan — a gas conveyor dryer that saves up to 25% on gas consumption compared to top competitors;
- Solutions Electric Dryer — an affordable, efficient electric option when a gas line isn't available;
- Solutions Mini — a compact electric dryer for shops with limited floor space;
- Ultra — an electric dryer with forced-air circulation for curing water-based and discharge inks quickly and effectively.
Anatol Conveyor Dryers
In addition to being able to set the belt speed in feet per minute or meters per minute, you can set your desired curing time and the dryer will adjust the belt speed accordingly.
- Curing speed — Anatol conveyor dryers distribute heat evenly and efficiently, speeding up ink curing. Powerful air circulation on the Ultra electric dryer and Vulcan gas dryer ensure water-based and discharge ink cures quickly.
- Consistent quality — temperature accuracy of ±1°F and automatic belt-speed matching to the set cure time prevent under- or over-curing a run;
- Throughput — Anatol dryers are available in a wide variety of sizes to accommodate even the highest production volumes.

How to Choose an Anatol Conveyor Dryer
- For small businesses — the Solutions Mini is a compact solution for shops with limited floor space;
- For manufacturing — Solutions and Ultra models with wider belts (48″–60″) and longer heat chamber (10'+) for consistent daily curing at high volume;
- By volume — consider not just belt width but heat chamber length: a short chamber at high belt speed may require a slower belt speed to properly cure thicker ink deposits;
- By budget — if your shop already has a gas line, the Vulcan saves up to 25% on consumption compared to competing gas dryers from other manufacturers; if not, go with the Solutions or Ultra electric dryers.
Pricing for Anatol Conveyor Dryers
The price of an Anatol conveyor dryer depends on several factors: heating type, belt width and heat chamber length, and any options — infeed/outfeed extensions, an outfeed cooling fan, split belt and more.
Pricing for Anatol dryers generally starts with compact models (Solutions Mini) and scales up to large industrial Ultra and Vulcan configurations with a 60″+ belt and a long heat chamber. An exact quote for your specific needs and budget is provided by an Anatol representative — you can submit a request through the "Get a Quote" form on the website.
Final configuration is also shaped by additional options: infeed/outfeed extensions, an outfeed cooling fan, split belt, etc.
Delivery and Installation of Anatol Conveyor Dryers
- Installation — equipment ships disassembled or partially assembled; all dryers require 208-230V electricity, while gas models (Vulcan) additionally require connection to a gas line;
- Startup — commissioning includes setting the temperature, warm-up, setting the desired belt speed/cure time, and curing test prints before the dryer is handed off for production use;

FAQ about Conveyor Dryers
Electric dryers like the Solutions series offer fast and consistent curing, and models are available that are suitable for both manual and automatic shops. Electric dryers use radiant heat from ceramic heating elements to cure prints. Anatol’s Vulcan series of gas conveyor dryers cure prints by circulating hot air through the chamber. The air circulation makes them well suited for both plastisol and water-based inks. Vulcan gas dryers are ideal for high production shops, and are available in larger sizes than the Solutions series (up to 72” wide belt/36’ long heat chamber). Gas conveyor dryers like the Vulcan are more energy efficient and consume less electricity than electric dryers.
Absolutely. Modern conveyor dryers are designed to effectively cure a variety of paints, giving operators the flexibility to adjust key parameters such as temperature, dwell time and belt speed. This is done according to the technical specifications recommended by the paint manufacturer.
Absolutely. Anatol conveyor dryers are designed to cure a variety of ink types, by giving operators the flexibility to adjust key curing parameters such as temperature and belt speed. This is done according to the technical specifications recommended by the ink manufacturer. While standard (non-forced air) electric dryers can cure water-based inks, dryers with airflow like the Anatol Ultra electric dryer and Vulcan gas dryer can greatly speed up the curing process.
Optimal air circulation helps ensure uniformity in the curing process and is particularly crucial when using water-based and discharge inks that require intensive moisture evaporation during their curing phase. Air circulation helps to not only remove moisture, it also prevents moisture from settling back into the garment.
Proper curing depends on evenly distributed heat reaching your garment. An inefficient, poorly insulated dryer allows heat to escape the chamber and migrate out into the shop, potentially affecting wash fastness, color vibrancy and print durability. A properly configured dryer helps ensure that every print meets quality standards.
Lo que más me sorprendió fue lo silencioso que funciona comparado con nuestro secador anterior. El ambiente de trabajo es mucho más cómodo y el rendimiento es excelente. Después de varios meses de uso continuo, sigue funcionando como el primer día.

We've been running the Anatol conveyor dryer for almost a year, and it has completely transformed our production workflow. Heat is distributed evenly across the belt, so every print cures consistently, even during long production runs. We also appreciate how easy it is to adjust the belt speed and temperature for different ink types. It's reliable, efficient, and built for high-volume printing.

I appreciate equipment that's simple to operate, and the Vulcan fits that perfectly. We trained two new employees in less than a day, and they were comfortable using it almost immediately. The controls are straightforward, and the machine has been extremely dependable during busy production weeks.
