DTI-397 Curing Batch Oven
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-397 batch oven cures ceramic board product. This curing oven utilizes a hydraulically operated vertical door to provide a proper seal for the oven chamber, and conserve floor space by eliminating a horizontal door swing. Floor tracks in the batch oven are designed to work in conjunction with a custom product cart for loading and unloading 6,000 lbs. of product. This batch oven is designed to sit in a concrete pit to allow the oven floor to be on the same elevation as the plant floor.
Features
Batch oven construction features
This batch oven is constructed with a structural steel framework that supports the entire oven. The batch oven interior is 310 stainless steel, and the exterior is carbon steel painted with high temperature paint. Chamber airflow is horizontal, with heated air being supplied to the product from both side walls. The heated air is returned back to the circulation fan through the ceiling of the batch oven.
