A heat treatment procedure is carried out where the material is heated to a specified temperature and then cooled in controlled ways to achieve desirable properties.
2. Heat treatment furnaces area type of customovens that use
exceptional temperatures to warmmaterials to change their
Physicaland Chemical properties. In producing and processing
metals, such as steel, aluminum, or copper, heat treatment
equipment also plays a significantrole in ceramics and other
materials. A heat treatment procedureis carried out where
the material is heated to a specified temperatureand then
cooled in controlled ways to achieve desirableproperties.
Types of heat treatment furnaces that are available:
There are severaldifferenttypes of heat treatment furnace,
each designed for specific applications and materials. Some of
the common types include:
Batchfurnaces
This type of furnace, suitable for small-scaleheat treatment
operations, is one of the common types of customovens.
They can reach temperatures up to 1200 C and may be
powered by electricity or gas.
Conveyor Furnaces
These customovens aretypically used for continuous heat
treatment processes and can handle larger volumes of
material. They use a conveyor systemto moveparts through
the furnaceat a consistentspeed.
Box Furnaces
This type of heat treatmentfurnace has a squareor
rectangular shape and is typically used for annealing,
hardening, or tempering processes.
3. Pit furnaces
As the name indicates, pit furnaces are dug up to process large quantities of heat in
various processes, including forging and casting. In a nutshell, heat treatment
furnaces are of great use because of the variety of their types, like batch, conveyor,
box, and pit.
