Continuous furnaces with belt conveyor specially adapted for small batches
For a major manufacturer of automotive bulbs, we have manufactured two PR 100/60 continuous annealing furnaces. These compact devices are equipped with a specially designed high-density wire belt conveyor, complete with side walls. This conveyor enables the safe movement of small bulbs through the furnace.
The furnace has one heating chamber, which has six heating zones and a cooling chamber. The cooling chamber has a self-cooling part and a forced cooling part. This solution allows for precise, controlled annealing of the bulbs with their subsequent controlled cooling.
The entire length of the furnace shell is protected by a perforated sheet metal in order to reduce the surface temperature of the furnace, and a hood can be placed next to the furnace, which extracts warm air escaping from the furnace and the cooling section.
