What is a traffic furnace?

The traffic furnace is a type of machine that is designed to heat components or workpieces as they pass at a single speed. The main advantage of the provided traffic furnace is that it is constantly in operation, unlike other types of furnaces that must be loaded, heated, cooled and unloaded. As a result, these furnaces are well suitable for factory applications where continuous processing is required. These furnaces are often used in the processing of solar panels, although they are also used for treatment, temperament and hardening workpieces in many other contexts. They may be quite universal because it is usually possible to finely tune different heating and cooling zones in the tunnel structure to suit different applications.

Furnaces are essentially large furnaces that can be used to process various products, from ceramics to top solar panels. Over the years, many development has occurred in the furnace technology and various configurations are best suited for different applications. Most PEC proposals include a compartment thatIt is charged with workpieces to be treated. The compart is then heated and cooled, then it can be unloaded and then loaded again. This is well suitable for many applications, but the traffic furnace is a variant of design, which is usually better when continuous operation is required.

Unlike other furnace types, traffic furnaces usually have a linear design similar to a tunnel. They consist of a transport belt that passes through the tunnel structure that can either be loaded and unloaded manually or is connected to a larger transport system. The tunnel is usually divided into several different zones that range from the ambient temperature to the maximum amount of heat required to treat a particular workpiece. As a component or workpiece, it travels along the conveyor, is subjected to each temperature zone, first heating and then cooling. For example, a traffic furnace designed for solar panel processing will usually include preheating, binding, heating, PAlbu and cooling section.

The heat source of the transport carrier can use a number of different technologies, including ceramic heaters, infrared (IR) lamps or radiation. These heat sources are usually uniform and stable and can often heat parts to more than 1,000 ° C (1,800 ° F). The speed of the conveyor belt also differs from one application to the other, although some furnaces are able to move products over 400 feet (about 120 meters) or more per minute. The temperature and speed can usually be adjusted to match each particular application.
