Stolle InterCure® Oven Connecting
The Stolle InterCure® Oven cures the internal water-based coating
of 2-piece beverage cans after they are discharged by the Inside
Spray Machines. The oven also finishes curing the ink and varnish
on the exterior of the cans resulting in fully cured cans that are
ready for the final steps of production.
The unit is designed to process aluminum or steel beverage
cans, and is capable of raising the metal of the can to the
required temperature and hold time for complete curing of
Discharge end of
the internal and external coatings. InterCure Oven with cooling zone
Stolle InterCure Ovens are solidly constructed as a continuously-
welded sheet steel folded structure with Zintec-coated internal
ducting, gables, can guides and bed/diffuser trays.
The oven is specially designed to reduce condensate via:
• Use of internal plenum chambers
• Controlled air ingress through make-up dampers Above: VFD direct-drive motors
on fans
• Entry/exit capture zones – no overspill into plant, assists in Left: Next generation energy-
keeping oven interior free from condensate saving gas burner assembly
• Twin exhaust fans further reduce condensate build-up in oven

– Separates lower temperature solvent-laden air from Zone 1 showing 3 heat zones
from the higher temperature air in Zones 2 and 3 (rear) and optional
discharge cooling
zone (front)
Stolle InterCure Oven features include:
• 3-zone configuration allows for full flexibility and latitude in the
curing process
• Optional cooling zone
• Optional BPAni zone configurations
• Optional fully automatic height adjustment for air distribution
nozzles to match all can sizes
• Superior temperature uniformity (+/- 2o C) and can stability
• Next generation gas burners reduce energy consumption
over traditional package burners
• Auto belt tracking/tensioning systems
• Direct-driven VFD controls on fans and motors
• Synthetic conveyor belt technology eliminates“metal fines”
• 100mm thick (100kg/m3) mineral wool insulation
• Access doors on both the front and rear side of each heating
zone for improved access for maintenance and cleaning
• Optional access stairs, maintenance platform & handrails
