Mesh Belt Hardening Furnaces
Over the past 50 years, Williams Industrial Service, Inc. has been designing and building high-performance industrial furnaces for the heat treating market. Some of our Continuous products consists of Large Capacity Pusher Furnaces, Cast-Link Belt Furnaces, and our highly popular Mesh Belt Hardening Furnaces. They range in all sizes up to 6,000 lbs./hour and are designed for maximum performance and offering the latest features in the industry.
Below are some of the highlighted features for the Mesh Belt Hardening Furnaces by Williams:
No Part Loss or Mixing
One of the biggest challenges with a Mesh Belt Furnace is part loss and/or part mixing. Due to the geometry of certain parts, they can roll off the side of the belt or get hung up in the quench chute area causing parts to get lost inside the furnace or mixed with other parts.
Williams has a proven design that prevents part loss or mixing. Our proprietary design allows both sides of the belt to ride on angled SIC shelves that run the entire length of the furnace continuing into the quench chute. This feature set has proven to be one of the most reliable solutions in the industry.
High Efficiency Heating Systems
Williams primarily uses single ended SIC radiant tubes in many sizes that can be electrically heated or gas fired. When properly maintained, tube life expectancy exceeds 15 years. With this configuration, if one eventually does fail the temperature uniformity is not affected. This keeps the furnace in CQI9 compliance and maximizes up-time performance.
Mesh Belt Life
With our unique conveyance design, the life of the mesh belt in our furnaces typically lasts twice as long as the competitors. Our design includes driven return rolls and automatic clutching for precise ratio control to reduce friction on the belt for improved life.
SCADA Control System
Williams offers a fully automated, state of the art control systems. This provides our customers with complete traceability of the parts including enhanced data collection and reporting capabilities.
