摘要： A foam drying apparatus is provided. The apparatus is configured to pass air, and in some cases heated and/or dried air, through a quantity of foam. This air passing through the foam absorbs or otherwise carries moisture out of the foam, drying it. The apparatus may utilize a pressure differential on opposite sides of the foam, causing air on the higher pressure side to pass through the foam. Typical applications may include the drying of foam assemblies which use water based adhesives to accelerate drying of the adhesive and/or removal of water from the foam assembly, and packaging of the foam assembly.

摘要： A device for drying foam pieces is provided. The device uses a combination of heating and air convection to drive moisture or other solvents and volatile compounds from the adhesive, causing it to rapidly dry. The device for drying foam pieces has a frame that defines a cavity. Foam pieces may be placed in the cavity to be dried. A heater is positioned to direct heat to an item within the cavity. An air blower is configured to draw air into the cavity and expel it from an outlet.
