Vacuum Drying Kilns (In Research)

Visdamax Malaysia have been building and supplying vacuum drying chambers to Japan since 2000. We have supplied over 30 vacuum chambers to Japan for drying of their 4" x 4" Japanese Ceder timber. However, in these instances, we have only ever supplied the equipment without the controls for these projects. Today we are conducting our own research into the viability of vaccum drying for the Malaysian hardwood timbers as well other hard wood or difficult to dry timbers.

We even have an experimental research vacuum drying chamber located in our factory for testing and research purposes. The most difficult aspect of vacuum drying is the schedules to be used for the timber. The schedule must be quick enough when compared to standard kiln for commercial viability as well being able to dry the timbers with minimal defects.
