Aluminum heat treatment furnace
50 - 600°C
Carbolite
- A specially designed industrial oven for solution treatment of thin aluminium alloy panels with minimal temperature loss between the heating cycle and quenching
- The oven processes a wide variety of skin panels up to a max size of 3 x 2m.
- As the maximum thickness of the material is only 1.6mm, quenching must be within 5 seconds of leaving the oven to ensure the metallurgical properties are maintained
- A solution treatment cycle generally lasts one hour at a temperature of 500°C
- Air circulation is provided by 8 heavy duty impellers and air guides, giving a temperature uniformity nominally rated at +3°C
- A typical charge weighs 80kg
