We see this on our dryer, we are out of room when we are doing larger prints, belts as fast as we can run it and still cure. We need a bigger dryer probably finally do that this year, reaching and laying the shirt as far away from me as possible only delays the bottle neck a few shirts, it also requires extra time to make that reach.  You ideally want to turn and lay a shirt without a step or reach, so anything beyond that is lost time.

I see it this way, a conveyer dryers garments per minute rating is the key. The longer the heat tunnel the faster the belt speed thus more garments per hour. Longer infeed will not speed up the process but it will allow you to feed off of more presses.
