A Roller Hearth Furnace is a continuous heat treatment furnace that uses rotating rollers to transport materials through various heating zones. These furnaces are ideal for high-volume processing in industries like automotive, aerospace, steel, ceramics, and glass manufacturing.
Types of Roller Hearth Furnaces
  1. Gas-Fired Roller Hearth Furnace
    • Uses natural gas, LPG, or diesel burners.
    • Suitable for metal heat treatment, forging, and sintering.
  2. Electric Roller Hearth Furnace
    • Uses electric resistance heating for precise temperature control.
    • Common in electronics, ceramics, and aerospace industries.
  3. High-Temperature Roller Hearth Furnace
    • Designed for applications above 1200oC.
    • Used for glass tempering, ceramic sintering, and steel hardening.
  4. Atmosphere-Controlled Roller Hearth Furnace
    • Uses controlled gases (nitrogen, hydrogen, argon, etc.) for oxidation-free processing.
    • Ideal for brazing, sintering, and carburizing applications.
