Central Axis Tilting Furnace
Enquiry
CENTRAL AXIS TILTING FURNACES are supplied as complete refractory lined packages with blower, burner and crucible (not guaranteed). The durable body is constructed from thick reinforced steel plates and supported on a stand by trunnions which move on anti-friction bearings. A graphite crucible and stand are provided, along with the muffle ring and cover for the top of the crucible (depending on the size and client’s option).
A side-mounted tilting gear arrangement with a large hand wheel allows easy manual operation. Motorized & hydraulic tilting with inching facility is also available.
The furnace is fitted with Axis self-proportionating Oil/Gas burner. Preheated oil at correct pressures is supplied by an Axis pumping and heating system. Combustion air is supplied by an Axis centrifugal air blower to the burner.
The burner fires tangentially inside the shell lining into a circular combustion space so that the hot gases surround the crucible, ensuring uniform heating. Waste gases pass out through a flue at one side. Normally the flue discharge is upward for top exhaust. Optionally, waste gases are collected in a fume extraction hood for discharge outside the production area.
