Gas Fired Furnaces

Home  /  Our Products  /  Furnaces  /  Air Circulating Furnace
A gas-fired furnace is an industrial heating system that uses natural gas (NG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), or propane as a fuel source. These furnaces are widely used in metal processing, foundries, ceramics, glass manufacturing, and heat treatment due to their high efficiency, fast heating, and lower operating costs compared to electric furnaces.
Types of Gas-Fired Furnaces
  1. Industrial Gas-Fired Furnaces
    • Used in heat treatment, metal processing, and ceramics.
    • Can operate at high temperatures (up to 1800oC).
  2. Foundry Gas-Fired Furnaces
    • Designed for melting metals like iron, brass, copper, and aluminum.
    • Available in crucible, rotary, and reverberatory furnace designs.
  3. Gas-Fired Heat Treatment Furnaces
    • Used for annealing, hardening, tempering, and stress relieving.
    • Common in automotive, aerospace, and tool manufacturing.
  4. Gas-Fired Forging Furnaces
    • Designed for blacksmithing and metal forging.
    • Provides high-intensity heat for shaping metals.
