Customer directive

Our customer wanted to create an indexing single part flow inert atmosphere production furnace system to match, and seamlessly integrate into, the customer’s entire existing manufacturing process at a production rate of 45 seconds part to part. The customer’s then existing process included inefficient batch furnace staging of parts at this point in the process.


Description

The DTI-227 industrial oven preheats cast iron molds used in the plastic industry. This custom oven contains a drawer that opens and closes automatically. Molds are loaded into the drawer by a crane located in the customer’s facility. Once the drawer closes, the preheat cycle begins. The custom oven drawer will support a maximum load of 4,000 pounds. The heat system is designed for a maximum product load of 4,000 pounds of steel.
