Annealing furnace P16_TH

The P16_TH range is a two-chamber oil quenching furnace offering an alternative to atmospheric transfer furnaces. It is particularly adapted for mass production, like in the automotive industry.  The BMI vacuum furnaces of the P16_TH family are two-chamber vacuum oil quenching furnaces for the treatment of large loads, as an alternative to atmospheric transfer furnaces. This furnace has a simple and compact design that limits operating and heat treatment costs as well as the occupation of ground space. The P16_TH range is therefore particularly suited for mass production, like the automotive industry. This vacuum furnace can be equipped with convection technology to reduce heating time and, possibly, to carry out homogeneous low-temperature heat treatments such as vacuum tempering cycles, which can complement vacuum oil quenching (after passing the load through a washing machine). The heating chamber can be maintained at a temperature to increase productivity and save energy. The airtight door inside guarantees zero interaction of oil vapours and thus helps to reach high vacuum levels. This furnace is equipped with a fully automatic handling system that uses a lift and telescope allowing a transfer time in the order of 30 seconds. The installation is fully automatic and enables perfect reproducibility of results, and thus improves productivity of the equipment. BMI optionally offers, for its entire range of vacuum oil quenching furnaces, ALLCARB® low-pressure carburisation, which is distinguished by its industrial results: precise, reproducible and homogeneous.
