Many industries demand precision and quality in the treatment and production of materials. For example, the aerospace, automotive, and medical industries are among those requiring precise custom heat treatments to improve or regain material characteristics. In addition, these industries need a furnace to process materials and meet high standards for components.
At S.M. Engineering & Heat Treating, we offer custom-engineered pusher batch and quench furnaces that can be used for various applications. Our custom furnaces can be used for annealing, stress relieving, hardening, and other complex heat treatments used to process materials to augment their strength and resistance to oxidation and contamination. In addition, our service caters to high volumes and efficient processing materials for different industries, including medical, automotive, and electronics.
This page will go through the features, capabilities, and applications of S.M. Engineering’s pusher batch and quench furnaces.
Pusher Batch and Quench Furnaces From S.M. Engineering
S.M. Engineering’s pusher furnaces allow efficient processing of high volumes of materials by combining a batch furnace with a quench system. Our products are efficient, reliable and are all under atmosphere to the point of entering the quenching method. They are designed to perform multiple methods of metal treatment.
Our batch and quench furnaces also keep up with technological features. They have digital temperature controls, including a solid state electronic on-off proportioning, a programmable logic system (PLC), and current proportion systems. In addition, our batch and quench furnaces are made to heat metals up to 36” wide for all types of metal. They achieve a maximum heating temperature of 1800 °F to 2100 °F, with heating options of nichrome 8/20, wire and ribbon, or silicon carbide glow bars.
Pusher batch furnaces can be configured in single or multiple length zones. They can be equipped with different sized ammonia dissociators to produce required atmospheres. Options for different heights and widths of muffles are available.
