Hardening Furnace Introduction

The tempering furnace is one of the key equipment used in metal heat treatment processes to improve the properties of the material after quenching. Tempering is generally carried out immediately after quenching.

Quenched metal, while significantly increased in hardness and strength, becomes more brittle and has high internal residual stresses, leading to deformation and cracking.

The tempering process involves heating the metal after quenching to a specific temperature and then cooling it slowly to reduce internal stresses, enhance toughness, and stabilize the material's dimensions.

Purpose of tempering furnace

Widely applied in various industries such as mechanical manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding, and light industry.

Used for heat treatment of metal parts such as high-speed steel, alloy steel, bearing steel, die steel, and aluminum alloy castings, pistons, aluminum plates, etc.

The process can be carried out in air, protective atmosphere, or a vacuum. Custom-designed multi-purpose tempering furnaces are also available for annealing and aging, etc.

Characteristics of the tempering furnace

(For example, a trolley-type tempering furnace)

Robust and durable furnace structure

The outer steel structure is made by tightly welding steel plates and sections, with a durable furnace body structure and reinforced by combined channels.

The equipment is easy to install and operate; no need for foundation excavation; simply place it on the ground and secure with bolts for use.
