Electrical Furnaces

An industrial furnace is used to heat-treat metals for annealing, tempering, carburizing, or pre-treatment of metals for forging. Though metal is a common material to be treated using an industrial furnace, other materials are also heated to prepare them for shaping, which includes glass and certain types of ceramics. The function of an industrial furnace is to superheat materials to extreme temperatures using an Electrical Power Supply.

Though industrial ovens and industrial furnaces serve the purpose of heating materials for processing, there is a distinct difference between them. Many times the two terms are used interchangeably to describe a heating process. There are several differences between but the most distinct is temperature range. As a normal rule, ovens operate at 250° F to 900° F while furnaces can reach temperatures of 2000° F or higher. Industrial furnaces come in different configurations and designs. Some are compact and portable with shelving and swing-open doors. They are used in laboratories for product or material testing. R and D labs use muffle furnaces to test new products while dental labs use them to do zirconia binder burnout. Industrial electric furnaces are an essential piece of equipment for various industries that require heat treatment processes. Our Industrial Electric Furnaces are known for their durability and versatility. They are equipped with advanced heating elements and insulation to ensure consistent, uniform heating, and can be customized to meet the specific needs of your business.
