Industrial Bogie Hearth Furnace with Manual Trolley Up to 1200 degree C
Overview
Bogie Hearth Furnace also known as car bottom furnace, which comprises a trolley car and a furnace body, mainly for annealing and quenching or hardening larger parts such as cast parts or tool steel dies or semiconductor dies to temperatures between 800 °C and 1100 °C, the furnace heating in the way of radiation from 5 heating sides, so the temperature balance at each angle, including the bottom. Programtherm provides a wide range of bogie hearth furnace with capacity up to 5000L, Tmax 1400°C. Each furnace can be designed with energy saving measures already integrated.
Main Features
- Tmax 1200 °C
- Manual trolley car bottom, bogie hearth type heat treatment furnace for industrial (automatic is optional)
- Self-supporting and long-life ceiling construction with bricks laid in arched construction
- Loading capacity up to 2 tons as per needs
- Two zones control for optimal temperature uniformity in the working space, each zone controlled independently
- Multi-layer insulation consisting of high alumina lightweight mullite bricks backed by fiber board insulation
- Heating elements mounted on ceramic tubes provide for free radiation and long service life, heating from five sides provides for a optimum temperature uniformity
- Bogie heating receives electric power via blade contacts with rear side when driven in, bottom heating protected by Silicon carbide board on the bogie providing level stacking surface
- Bogies with flanged wheels running on rails for easy and precise movement of heavy loads
- Motorized exhaust air flap for optimum ventilation of the furnace chamber and for rapid cooling at low temperatures (need extra fee)
- Precise digital PID temperature controller programmable 32 segments
- Type N thermocouple
- CE certified, standard
Safety Measures
- Built-in ammeter and dual voltmeters for easy monitoring and troubleshooting.
- Overheat protection shuts down the furnace if temperature is outside of acceptable range (refer to controller's manual) or when the thermocouple is broken or malfunctions
- Power failure protection resumes furnace operation right after the point of failure when power is reestablished
- Microprocessor based self-tuning PID control provides optimum thermal process with minimal overshoot
