Maintaining Uniform Target Temperature

Image
There are various processes where temperatures and other operating parameters in the oven must be controlled accurately in real-time with minimal delays. Taking a metal curing process as a viable example, we must acknowledge that the production of adhesives or various polymers materials and their bonding to the metal surface is a highly temperature-sensitive process. The temperature affects the reaction kinetics and, more importantly, the atomic structure of the particular substance. The conversions of the atomic structure configurations occur at a specific temperature, and reaching the nearest temperature to target one is essential for manufacturing durable and high strength materials. One of the most troublesome issues in industrial ovens applications is maintaining the target temperature uniformly across all oven sections. The excessive production demands and the highest quality products are followed by overwhelming operating costs, especially in the aerospace industry. Manufactur

Tier 1 Automotive Supplier Orders Batch Ovens

Epcon Industrial Systems custom-designed and manufactured two batch ovens specifically for aging aluminum structural components for a Tier 1 automotive supplier. Each oven includes a multi-tiered rack system and has sufficient capability to heat 6,500 pounds of aluminum and 2,500 pounds of steel from 70°F to 400°F in under two hours while meeting the stringent temperature uniformity requirement of +/5°F. The ovens were also designed to meet CQI -9 requirements. Visit us https://epconlp.com for more information.
