International Thermal Systems LLC. Conveyor Oven

Conveyor Ovens offer a variety of conveyance configurations. Conveyor Ovens can be used for a wide variety of heat processes including drying, curing, aging, annealing, stress relieving, bonding, tempering, preheating and forming. In either a horizontal or vertical configuration, the Conveyor Oven offers the ability to handle high production rates. Loading product(s) into the Conveyor Oven can be manual or automated. Conveyance Systems Belt Conveyance Systems horizontally convey the parts through the oven on a conveyor belt. A Belt Style Conveyor typically interfaces with a processing line. The oven conveyor belt is set to the line pass height and speed (continuous or indexing). Overhead Conveyance Systems feature an I-beam, enclosed track, or power and free conveyor where the part(s) are typically hung from a carrier or rack and travel through the oven in a continuous or indexing mode. Chain Conveyance Systems convey the product through the oven, in a horizontal or vertical configuration, where the parts or carriers are transported on a single strand or multiple strands of engineered chain. Powered Roller Conveyance Systemsconvey the product or pallets horizontally through the oven on powered rollers in a continuous or indexing mode. Walking Beam Conveyance Systems are typically used in indexing type applications where product spacing is critical or where environmental conditions preclude other conveyance styles. Bearings, drive components, and position sensors are located outside the oven. Pusher Conveyance Systems feature an internal or external pusher mechanism that indexes the parts through the heat processing chamber. Pusher Conveyance Systems use rollers, low friction rails, or slide beds to support the product through the oven. Approaching each project as a partnership, the goal of our Engineering Staff is to share the customer’s vision to produce the best Conveyor Oven solution for the thermal processing application. Each Industrial Oven project undergoes a comprehensive evaluation of every production requirement. The assessment includes areas such as production goals, part configuration and construction, part mass, temperature profile, and facility location or elevation. Each Conveyor Oven is tested for performance, accuracy, safety systems, air management and temperature uniformity. The equipment conforms, in accordance with customer requirements, to the following standards: NFPA, IRI, FM, OSHA, JIC, NEC, UL, and CE. Providing a distinct competitive advantage, International Thermal Systems offers a number of patent protected heat processing solutions. Our Technical Service Department provides international support for ALL makes and models of thermal processing equipment. The Conveyor Oven will carry an 18-month extended manufacturer’s warranty from the date of shipment. Conveyor Oven Features include: Economical operation is achieved with superior thermal process engineering practices that apply state-of-the-art insulation material, airflow management, and custom programming. Recirculation fans with high efficiency motors to reduce energy consumption. Recirculation ductwork designs provide precise airflow to specific areas of the product resulting in smaller foot print ovens thus reducing utility and factory space costs. High-efficiency (gas or electric) heat sources to reduce energy costs. Robust structural oven frames and component supports. Application specific insulation materials are selected to provide optimum insulating characteristics and long term energy savings. Design considerations for easy access to process areas and oven components. Private labeled and purchased components meet UL, UR, and CE standards. Programmable controllers with HMI (Human Machine Interface) displays allow for user friendly operation and machine diagnostics. NEMA style control panels.
