An Annealing Furnace is a specialized industrial furnace used for softening metals, relieving internal stresses, and improving ductility by heating them to a specific temperature and then cooling them gradually. This process enhances the workability, machinability, and structural integrity of metals and alloys.
How an Annealing Furnace Works
  • Loading - Metal parts (sheets, wires, tubes, castings) are placed inside the furnace.
  • Heating - The furnace heats the material to its annealing temperature (600-1200oC).
  • Soaking - The material is held at this temperature to allow structural changes.
  • Controlled Cooling - The material is gradually cooled to prevent brittleness.
  • Unloading - The annealed metal is removed for further processing.
Key Features of Annealing Furnaces
  • Uniform Temperature Distribution - Ensures consistent heat treatment results.
  • Improves Metal Ductility & Machinability - Makes materials easier to form and machine.
  • Controlled Atmosphere Options - Prevents oxidation and discoloration.
  • Customizable Heating Zones - Allows for different annealing profiles.
  • Energy-Efficient Design - Reduces fuel and electricity consumption.
  • PLC & SCADA Automation - Provides real-time process control and monitoring.
Applications of Annealing Furnaces
  • Steel & Alloy Processing - Annealing of stainless steel, carbon steel, and titanium.
  • Copper & Brass Industries - Softening copper wires, pipes, and strips.
  • Automotive & Aerospace - Heat treatment of gears, engine parts, and structural components.
  • Electrical & Electronics - Annealing of silicon steel sheets and transformer cores.
  • Metal Forging & Casting - Stress relieving of forged and cast metal parts.
Advantages of Annealing Furnaces
  • Enhances Metal Workability - Reduces hardness for easier forming and machining.
  • Eliminates Internal Stresses - Prevents material failure and improves durability.
  • Customizable for Different Metals - Suitable for steel, aluminum, copper, and special alloys.
  • Oxidation-Free Processing (Bright Annealing) - Available with hydrogen or vacuum options.
  • Ensures Consistent Product Quality - Automated controls provide repeatable results.
