Looking for some M&R Radicure Reviews

[inkstain]

Hi guys,
Looking for some reviews on a 2006 M&R Radicure (36" wide, 10ft chamber, 5ft in and out feeds) that I might be able to purchase for a good deal, or anyone with a Radicure that may be a different year.  Currently have an older Anatol dryer (30" wide, 5ft chamber, 2ft in and out feeds) that I've had for about 12 years.  It works but it's been a headache at times.  Wanna upgrade.  I print 90% plastisol but want to print more water base.  From what I've read, the Radicure has forced air to help with that.  Plus, a 10ft chamber sounds good too. 

One hiccup, but heard that it's doable, is that my shop is only single phase and the Radicure is 3 phase.  I heard you can use a phase convertor for it to work.  Any one on out there do that with their dryer/equipment?  Anything I should be aware of?

Looking for any feedback, pros-cons.  Thanks for the help.

phase 1 Radicure only runs 3 panels.  I converted mine to a 4th panel but still wouldn't feel comfortable running a lot of water base through it.  You need to just move to a gas dryer if thats something you think you want to get into.

Thanks for the info.  Sorry, I forgot to mention that the Radicure I'm looking at is 3 phase, 10ft chamber with 6 panels.  How do you think that would fare with water base?  I'd like to upgrade to gas but can't in my situation/shop.

We used to run a Radicure at 4 feet per minute for wb/dc. Very slow but it cured the ink.

What temp, what height?

How big is your heat chamber?  3 panels?

The six panel Radicure will do just fine with waterbase but the air flow of gas dryers is key to faster production

The same dryer that the OP is looking at. Temp 850f. Panel height, I dunno, but whatever is recommended by M&R would be the height set.
