Examples of batch furnaces include:
1. Box-Type Batch Furnace: This is the simplest type of batch furnace, with a rectangular chamber and a door for loading and unloading small to medium-sized parts manually.
2. Bogie-Hearth Furnace: This type of furnace uses a movable platform or "bogie" to transport the load in and out of the furnace. It is suitable for larger and heavier components.
3. Muffle Furnace: A muffle furnace has a separate chamber or muffle that surrounds the load, providing a controlled atmosphere for heat treatment. It is often used for processes such as annealing and tempering.
4. Pit Furnace: Also known as a vertical furnace, a pit furnace is designed for heat treating large and heavy parts. The load is placed into a pit and then raised into the furnace chamber for heat treatment.
5. Bell Furnace: In a bell furnace, the load is placed inside a bell-shaped chamber that is lowered into the furnace for heat treatment. This type of furnace is commonly used for processes such as carburizing and hardening.
6. Salt Bath Furnace: A salt bath furnace uses a heated salt mixture as the medium for heat treatment. It is often used for processes that require rapid heating and cooling, such as quenching.
7. Fluidized-Bed Furnace: In a fluidized-bed furnace, the load is suspended and heated by a stream of hot gas or fluidized solids. This type of furnace is suitable for processes such as annealing and sintering.
These are just a few examples of batch furnaces used for heat treatment of steel. Each type of furnace has its own advantages and is suitable for different applications and load sizes.
