Description
Bell Type Heat Treatment Furnace Features

Bell-Type Sealing Structure

The inner cover and furnace bell create a stable enclosed heating environment. This improves atmosphere control and helps maintain consistent annealing quality across the entire batch.

 

Uniform Heat Distribution

The circulation system ensures that heat is evenly distributed from the outer layers to the center of the wire coil, reducing uneven hardness and inconsistent metallurgical structure.

 

Controlled Protective Atmosphere

Optional atmosphere systems include:

  • Nitrogen
  • Hydrogen
  • Cracked ammonia gas

The atmosphere control system helps minimize oxidation and supports cleaner wire surfaces after annealing.

 

Flexible Heating Options

Available heating configurations include:

  • Electric heating
  • Natural gas heating

The heating system can be selected according to local energy availability and operating cost considerations.
