Abstract
A method and device for heating the pressure belt of a press, in which the press pressure is exerted by a gas-filled pressure chamber on the working run of pressure belt and heat transfer is increased by a high circulation rate of the pressure medium in pressure chamber, to create a situation in which a large quantity of heat can be transferred even in the lower pressure ranges. Steam is mixed with a gaseous pressure medium, e.g. air, before it enters the pressure chamber and the back of the pressure belt is exposed to the steam-air mixture in the vicinity of pressure chamber, whereupon the steam condenses wholly or partially on the colder back of the pressure belt in the zone adjacent to the entrance. The heat of condensation thus released results in intensive heating of the pressure belt in this zone and hence of the workpiece.
