High Temperature Belt Conveyor Furnace – Continuous Heat Treatment with Precision and Efficiency
A High Temperature Belt Conveyor Furnace is a highly efficient continuous heat treatment system designed for applications requiring controlled, uniform heating at elevated temperatures. With a moving conveyor belt transporting components through various heating zones, these furnaces are ideal for mass production environments where consistent quality and high throughput are critical.
At JR Furnace & Ovens, we manufacture custom-engineered high temperature belt conveyor furnaces that meet the demanding needs of industries such as metallurgy, electronics, ceramics, automotive, and aerospace. Our furnaces combine robust construction, precise temperature control, and efficient energy management to deliver superior performance.
What is a High Temperature Belt Conveyor Furnace?
This type of furnace uses a metallic or mesh belt to continuously carry products through multiple temperature-controlled zones. The belt moves at a regulated speed, ensuring that each product receives consistent heat treatment for the required time.
Temperature capabilities typically range from up to 1200°C for metallic belts and even higher for specialized designs using ceramic or high-alloy belts. The furnace can operate in air, vacuum, or controlled atmospheres like nitrogen, hydrogen, or argon to meet specific process requirements.
