Industrial oven manufacturers design equipment that
removes solvents from products through drying,
curing, baking, dehydrating and aging. Industrial ovens are also used
to reactivate adhesives, gel and fuse materials together, heat-set, heat-shrink,
preheat, sinter, melt, heat-treat, laminate and thermal bond other materials.
These processes require heat and mass transfer, which can be accomplished
through conduction, convection or infrared/radiant heat from industrial
ovens. Often, commercial
ovens are designed with a combination of these types of heat transfers,
as no single heating technology is perfect for every process. Industrial
oven manufacturers offer two possible configurations: batch
industrial ovens and continuous industrial ovens. Most commercial
ovens fall under the category of batch
ovens,
which process an individual product in a single group. Continuous industrial
ovens consist of automated conveyor systems that move large quantities
of products through the industrial oven.
In conduction, heat is applied directly to one part of an object, exciting
the electrons. Molecular collisions, which travel along the object, heat
the object as they move. Conduction industrial ovens transfer heat from
a hot plate to the bottom of the product or material. There is the possibility
that non-uniform heating and mechanical stress may occur in this process.
In convection
ovens, excited molecules reach a state of fluid motion as gases or
liquids are heated. The heated, less dense molecules move upward, while
the cooler, more compact molecules move downward. In a convection
oven, which may utilize forced air, the product is heated from the
top down. Premature, non-uniform drying may occur.
Infrared
ovens use radiant heat, which heats the object itself, rather than the air
within the oven. Lamps emit medium and short wavelength radiation. Infrared heat
is the heat transfer method of choice in the curing of metal, plastic and composite
parts. It has since been used to provide the heat, the cure, the bond and the
catalyst for a wide variety of industrial processes. Infrared heat is suitable
for products like web, fabric and products that require powder curing. Infrared
ovens require significantly less energy to heat up, and heat up much more quickly
than either convection
ovens or conduction ovens, making infrared ovens more
cost efficient.
Industrial oven manufacturers cater to a wide variety of applications, including
coated paper industrial ovens, vinyl industrial ovens, textile industrial ovens,
industrial and coated fabric ovens, technical textile industrial ovens,
safety fabric industrial ovens, woven material industrial ovens, knit material
industrial ovens, carpet industrial ovens, building material industrial ovens,
wall-covering industrial ovens, tubing industrial ovens, electronics industrial
ovens, fuel cells industrial ovens, steel coil industrial ovens and automotive
industrial ovens. Infrared ovens can be used for pre-drying, preheating, drying,
post-heating, thermal bonding, heat-setting, curing and more. Industries such
as chemicals/petrochemical, finishing, food processing, packaging/printing, pulp/paper/converting,
pharmaceuticals, plastics/rubber and textiles benefit from infrared ovens. Commercial
ovens are useful for heat treating, different types of curing, stress relieving,
plastic heating, core baking, vacuum thermal forming, etc. To optimize drying
and curing processes, choose the appropriate energy source (e.g. electricity,
gas, etc.), and it
is important to remember that precise processes can only be accomplished with
precise temperature control.

Types
of
Industrial Ovens
Baking ovens are used for baking materials or food,
are made of inflammable materials and have smooth interior surfaces
to allow cleaning.
Batch ovens process a product at one time in a single group.
Bench ovens are small, sometimes portable, ovens usually placed on
tables or stands. Bench ovens are used during low volume process
heating applications.
Commercial ovens are used to dry, bake, heat, and cure various materials.
Convection ovens provide consistent process heating through the fluid
circulation of gases. The heated gas warms the internal air, which
maintains the temperature inside the oven.
Conveyor ovens contain a variety of accessories and are used in continuous
high volume process heating applications.
Drying ovens are used to remove excess moisture from a product.
Infrared ovens utilize electromagnetic radiation to transmit heat
to the product. Infrared radiation is transferred directly
to the product
without heating the air inside of the enclosure.
Powder coating ovens are either infrared or convection ovens in which
the powder coating on a product is melted and allowed to
flow for 2-10 minutes. Within the oven, the product is then exposed
to ultraviolet
light for just a few seconds to cure and harden the finish.
Storage ovens heat parts to make them easier to assemble and are
utilized where pressure-sensitive adhesives perform more
efficiently at higher
temperatures and where pliability aids fit.
Vacuum ovens are airtight enclosures in which the pressure level
remains lower than that of atmospheric pressure. Vacuum
ovens guard against
undesirable effects of heat processes such as oxidation
and contamination.
Walk-in or truck-in
ovens are large enclosures used for the process
heating of large objects, such as trucks or cars,
or large product quantities. Walk-in ovens often contain large doorways,
cabinet, shelves and racks for convenience.
Common Terms Related To
Industrial Ovens
Aging - The
process of changing the properties of a metal or an alloy through
temperature changes through the utilization of an industrial oven.
Annealing - The process of softening an object or changing other
properties of the object through cycles of heating and cooling using an
industrial oven.
Atmospheric Pressure - The amount of force the atmosphere exerts
upon the earth's surface, measuring 14.7 psi at sea level.
Baking - Removing entrained gases by heating the object up to a
low temperature in an industrial oven.
BTU (British Thermal Unit) - The
amount of heat necessary to change the temperature of one pound of water
by one degree Fahrenheit.
Conduction - A form of heat transfer through the application of
heat to a solid object followed by the subsequent spread of the heat
through the object in an industrial oven.
Convection - Heat transfer between two objects, one of which is
either a liquid or a gas. During convection, the pull of gravity initiates
fluid circulation, causing heated molecules to rise and cool molecules
to fall.
Curing - The process involving the solidification of a material
through heating and drying, in industrial ovens. And in which the temperature of the cured object
is maintained during the process.
Drying - The process of removing a solvent such as moisture from
an object by utilizing industrial ovens.
Emittance - The capability of the surface to emanate radiant energy.
Heat Transfer - The exchange between matter, or parts of the same
matter, which always occurs from warm to cool.
Heat Treatment - The process of changing properties in solid metals
or alloys through heating and cooling applications.
Heatsetting - The process of setting the shape of yarn or carpet
fibers through the application of heat in industrial ovens, and/or steam. For example, heatsetting
creates a permanent twist in yarn.
Postheating - Applying heat to an object after the manufacturing
process, such as brazing, welding or soldering.
Powder Coating - A dry finishing process that utilizes finely ground,
electrostatically charged particles, which are sprayed onto a part to
be coated. When placed in an industrial oven, the charged parts melt and fuse into
a durable, even coating.
Preheating - The application of heat
in industrial ovens before the manufacturing process.
Process Heating - The supplication of heat
from industrial ovens to an object or material.
Quenching - The rapid cooling of an
object heated in an industrial oven.
Radiation - The movement of energy in the form of particles, rays
or waves.
Radio Frequency - The creation of heat by the transfer of energy.
Sintering - The formation of large particles from a heap of small,
fine particles through the application of heat. In the sintering process,
the temperature remains below the melting point.
Stress Relieving - Reducing stress in a metal object by raising
the temperature of the object and maintaining the object's temperature
for a specified amount of time by utilizing industrial ovens.
Tempering - Heating steel by different means to a given temperature
in industrial ovens and then cooling it, in order to reduce the brittleness in the hardened
steel.
Thermal Bonding - The application of heat
from industrial ovens to produce interlocking
among fibers and fabrics.
