Usually, the drying chamber is arranged behind the powder spreading chamber of the powder shaking machine. After the powder spreading chamber evenly spreads the printing medium with powder, ensuring the effective combination of the printed powder on the printing medium, the printing medium covered with the printed powder is heated by means of thermal radiation, etc., so that the printed powder melts into a transparent layer above the printing medium, and the moisture of the ink on the printing medium is evaporated, and the printed pattern on the printing medium is fixed. Therefore, the powder shaking machine is also called a fixing machine. The conventional powder shaking chamber includes a heating box on the upper part and a mesh belt conveyor line on the lower part; the inside of the mesh belt conveyor line is in a negative pressure state, adsorbing the printing medium above the mesh belt to ensure that the formed transparent layer has a uniform thickness; the heating box is provided with heating tubes and a smoke exhaust passage; the heating tubes generate thermal radiation to heat the printed powder; the smoke exhaust passage has a negative pressure suction force to discharge the harmful gases generated by heating. The heat transferred by the heating box to the printing medium is in the downward direction; therefore, the printed powder and ink on the surface layer of the printing medium receive heat first, and the printing medium and ink on the inner layer of the printing medium receive heat later.
