Steel Band Continuous Reduction / Annealing Furnaces are used for the Reduction of Oxides or Annealing of various Metal Powders, which are obtained through various Metal Powder production processes like Atomization, Electrolysis etc.  In this process, Gradual Heating of Metal Powders is carried out under the Controlled / Reduced atmosphere, to remove the impurities and Oxides present in the input raw Metal Powder.

. 

Steel Band Reduction / Annealing Furnaces are offered as per our client’s application
i.e. the processing time, temperature, capacity, width of Steel Band, Length of Hotzone, etc. and are customized as per customer’s specific requirements.

Maximum Operating Temperature offered for Steel Band Annealing Furnaces up to 1000^o C

These Steel Band Reduction / Annealing Furnaces may have Reduction / Annealing Zone, Jacketed water Cooling Zone, Feeding and Exit Doors, Flame Curtains, Control Panel etc. suitable for maintaining the required Atmosphere inside the muffle.

Features of Steel Band Reduction / Annealing Furnace :

• Muffle –  Muffles are provided to maintain a Closed System of controlled / reducing atmosphere for the process.  These are made of Heat Resisting Stainless Steel or Inconel as per specific requirement.

• Electric Heating  –    Our Furnaces are Electrically Heated. Electrical heating has clear advantages over fuel-fired heating as it is the most efficient, easy to operate, clean & it avoids the hazards and problems associated with using any other fuel. It is also environment friendly and pollution free.

• Cooling Zone : Water-Jacketed type Cooling Zones are provided in our furnaces, to cool Down the processed Powder to a desired temperature for ease of further handling.

• Steel Band : Steel Bands of various thickness are provided for smooth conveying of the Metal Powder across the various Zones of the furnace at desired speed suitable to specific process. Steel Bands are procured from reputed Suppliers, to ensure a very high quality and reliable Performance.

• Temperature Controlling : Temperature of all the zones are controlled with the help of AI Based controllers, so that the temperature is maintained precisely and it also results in increased efficiency and power saving.

• Thyristor Control : Thyristor based controllers enhances the life span of Heating Elements, as they prevents the ON/OFF of the heating elements and thus prevents the Thermal Shocks to the Heating Elements. Thyristors also helps in reducing the maintenance costs of Electrical component. They also reduces the Maximum Demand (MD) & electrical consumptions during furnace operation.

• Temperature Overshoot : A secondary protection system can be provided in each Heating Zone to prevent the Overshoot of Temperature, in case of failure of primary temperature controlling system. This system will override the primary controlling system & will shut off the complete system to prevent any damage to the furnace / Heating Elements due to overheating.

• HMI Panels with SCADA Controls : HMI Based Control Panel can be provided with Touch Screen controls and Web based SCADA Control system. Designed with a very User Friendly and easy to understand Interface with high functionality, these panels are extremely useful for easy operations and remote monitoring of the furnaces
