  • Another example of a batch furnace are so-called chamber furnaces, which are used for the heat treatment of coils, billets and ingots.
  • Such a chamber furnace is for example off DE 102 27 499 A1 known.
  • Known batch furnaces have flow line systems, for example, with nozzles, which guide and enter the heat transfer medium in the furnace chamber and act on the batch located in the furnace chamber with the heat transfer medium for convective heat transfer.
  • the batch should be heated as homogeneously as possible in order to avoid damage to the batch by local overheating and to achieve the most uniform possible material properties.
  • the single-coil furnace is similarly constructed and has a single chamber in which a single coil is heat treated. As with the chamber furnace, flow channels are provided with nozzles that direct the heat transfer medium to the coil. Below or in front of the one-coil furnace, a charging system is arranged. When loaded from below, the furnace is mounted in a steel framework that creates space for handling the coils below the furnace.
