Continuous Furnaces (Pusher Type)
Pusher-type continuous furnaces are advanced devices designed for uninterrupted heat treatment processes. Their design enables efficient pushing of the load through the furnace using subsequent loads, ensuring high efficiency and repeatability.
High Operating Temperature
Key features of the pusher-type furnace:
- Construction Type: Chamber, table-top design, engineered for continuous operation under demanding industrial conditions.
- Heating Element: Kanthal resistance wire embedded in chamotte plates ensures uniform and durable heating.
- Temperature Range: Maximum operating temperature of 1100°C, suitable for a wide range of heat treatment applications.
Pusher-type furnaces are ideal for hardening, tempering, and annealing processes in industrial environments where efficiency and consistency are key. Their functionality makes them perfect for steel heat treatment, tool manufacturing, and the automotive industry.
Unique Features:
- Top-Opening Loading Doors: Equipped with durable hinges and a sealing plug, ensuring safety and minimizing heat loss while providing easy access to the furnace chamber.
- Adjustable Guide Plate: A metal plate mounted directly beneath the furnace doors, serving as a flat surface for sliding loads into the chamber. The adjustable height allows it to accommodate various types of loads.
- Loading Slot: Doors equipped with a slot of custom dimensions enable seamless load feeding using a pushing mechanism.
- Reinforced Floor: A 10 mm thick silicon carbide plate enhances durability and resistance to mechanical damage.
